01 iMew y aoncs ana rashions
Thousands of women season after season depend upon this Store's pre
sentation of the first complete, authentic information of fashions and the first
comprehensive display of the season's correct, elegant, practical, wearable
models in apparel for all occasions.
They depend upon us also for the newest and best fabrics and materials
for home dressmaking, and look to us for the correct accessories to the fash
ionable toilette. All these good friends of this Store will be MORE THAN
PLEASED with the Autumn Displays.
The Beautiful Autumn Gowns, Suits,
Wraps, Coats, Waists and Millinery
These Autumn Opening Displays for 1915, surpassing in beauty and elegance
those of previous seasons, will be ready on Monday a full complement of the dis
tinguished fashions for which this Store is noted. The Displays are marked by extra
ordinary distinctiveness" in the styles and in their setting, and they completely allay the
universal concern regarding Autumn Fashions.
Gowns, Suits, Wraps and Coats offer many delightful surprises in their individual
interpretation of the mode. They are expressive of great dignity and sumptuousness,
with a certain colorful beauty and scintillation that is most artistic. Paris and American
Waists are here' in great variety, and Paris Millinery and our own creations are ably
maintaining our pre-eminence in matters of fashion.
Paris Gowns and Suits on the Second Floor
As this season is attended by more than the usual interest in Paris models, and as our collection of Paris Gowns and Suits is
considerably larger than in past seasons, ve thought it advisable for the greater convenience of our patrons to show the imported mod.ls
as a part of the great display on the Second Floor, instead of separately on the Third Floor, as has been customary. Our buyer of Paris
models, who has lust returned from abroad, is delightfully enthusiastic over her selections. Although there are fewer of the world-famous
designers and a limited market for their output, nothing can subdue or pervert the talent and genius of those in fashion's field of action,
as these superb models amply illustrate. These Paris models to be sold or copied by our French Dressmaking Shop.
Beautiful Displays, on Monday, of Misses', Girls' and Children's Correct Autumn Apparel; and
Attractive Collections of New Autumn Skirts, Lingerie, Negligees and the new Models in Corsets. Also the
Most Distinctive Fashions in all Accessories of Dress.
An Authoritative Autumn Opening Display of the
New Silks & Velvets, Wool & Cotton Dress Goods
Exclusive Novelty Silks from France and Switzerland; rich Velvets from Germany, and lovely Silks wrought by the master artisans
of America, constitute an Autumn Exhibit which every woman who attaches importance to the new, or finds pleasure in viewing the beautiful
should see. Equally beautiful is the Display of Dress Goods, which features imported Broadcloths, new Wool Velours, Plaids and Striped
Materials, of which there is a strong revival, as well as scores of other weaves, in all the new and staple colors. Silk-and-Cotton Dresa GoodL,
in street and evenjng shades, add to the beauty of the fashion display on the First Floor. See the display on Monday.
A Formal Display of New Styles in
Shoell, Hosiery, Gloves, Hand Bags
We iavite all women Interested in exclusive Footwear, to the opening of
our NEW AND PERFECTLY APPOINTED SHOE SALON, added to our
Women's Shoe Store. Here will be displayed the newest styles in Shoes and
Evening Slippers, such as the Elizabethan Button Boot, in delicate shades;
Domino Calf Shoe, with single front seam; Dross Pumps, Cross-strap Pumps,
and Evening Slippers of gold and aluminum cloth.
In harmony with novelties in Footwear, are those in Silk Hosiery more
than we have ever had before, and in an excellent range of colors. Of all the
beautiful Gloves on, display, our FIeur-de-I4s French Kid Gloves are easily pre
eminent, by reason of their extreme pliancy, shapeliness and their new and
, lovely embroideries. Hand Bags, of leather, velvet and silk, have attained new
distinction this season through novelty clasps, elegant linings and perfect
appointments, and the new colors in which many appear. Be here on
MONDAY.
