AUTUMN.

The world puts on its robes of glory now
The very flowers are tinged with deeper dyes;
The waves are bluer, and the angels pitch
Their shining tents along the sunset skies.
Albert Leighton.

ROBES OF GLORY ARE THE AUTUMN

FASHION

SCENE!

The lady is seductive once again!

Rich fabrics, deep warm colours like log fires, smoky
greys, berry colours, indigos, chestnuts and loden

greens are here and now.
Furs in all colours, shapes

and

sizes;

cuffs,

collars,

jackets, skirts, vests, coats and linings; unpretentious or
super-elegant, let you laugh at winter.

Gentle jerseys make into soft dresses that hint at shapes
and discover legs.
Full coats and capes swirl and billow around calves.
High heeled cossack boots in harmonizing kid march
beneath swinging skirts.

There is gaiety and relaxed charm and a certain nonchalance about fashion this fall.

“neighbour” a master furrier who works with us
on accents, or to create a whole coat of warm
beauty.

Full coats, Jacob-like in many colours fall smoothly
and are tied gently at the waist. ($495)
Basic coats, double-breasted reefers in navy wool
are superbly tailored and have collars that stand

up or down. ($495)

Unlined capes in white loden are short ($210), or

long ($250). To be worn over pants or skirts, with

tall or short boots to take you shopping, or in the
evening, over something more gossamer, to escort
you to the opera.
Carefully co-ordinated suits and outfits are our
forte. Skirts in Racine jersey are pleated or “A”

line ($135). Be as trendy as you wish in a variety of
tops. Plain or ribbed jackets ($250), round or “V”
necked belted pullovers ($100), or slender cardigans ($150). All are elegant with removable fur
collars and cuffs, or beautifully simple.
Romantic blouses? Yes. In crepe, jersey, silk or

chiffon ($95 - $250).

Neat, clinging cotton-knit shirts won’t muss or
crush. They button half way down the front, have
two pockets, turn-back cuffs and come in basic

colours and in prints ($65 - $95).
