New fall shirt displays emphasize abundant striped patterns and a revival of dressy starched collars. Wide variations include cardinal and burgundy stripes on ground fabrics, gray ground with white and pink accents, and bold red or wine tones on neutral bases. Newsprint notes multiple cross stripes on demi bosom models and a renewed demand for refined, formal shirts amid improving business conditions.
A fashion snippet muses on reviving demi-bosoms and French cuffs, noting how such styles would raise laundry costs. The remark hints at the practical price of sartorial choices during lean times and the ongoing fashion debate.
Neckband shirts with double soft cuffs or single stiff cuffs are showcased. End-and-end madras with broad side pleats, pleated bosom shirts in three widths, attached white collars on dark grounds, and new demi bosom and spade shapes appear. Conservative pastel colors dominate business wear, long point and rounded collars rise, and button-down collars fade from prominence.
Satin neckwear trends take hold with satin ties at Meadow Brook polo events. Patterns include squared blocks, stripes, and bold weave designs in solid and varied colors. Rough silks and macclesfield ties add texture, while motifs feature ovals circles and scrolls against dark backgrounds. Automotive density data follows.
Wool and leather combine in new fall sweater jackets after years of inactivity in sweater manufacturing. Sport back styles decline as practicality and freedom of wool dominate. Manufacturers borrow suede and leather jacket features, merging them with sweaters for versatile outerwear.
The article praises the sweater jacket as highly satisfactory. It notes fashionable combinations of suede leather pigskin fur fronts with sweater backs and sleeves, pairing with wool corduroy flannel and cloth to produce an outstanding sweater crop. It also mentions a two-foot triangle parcel of real estate on a New York sidewalk.
