o utiittmg the Smart Woman For Fall
A new coat, a new suit, a new party frock or a new gown for afternoons. Which
shall it be? Every one is of equal importance and so after seeing how beautiful and
becoming the new Fall models are, she does not hesitate to choose at least one of
each. They are the cornerstones of a serviceable wardrobe. Suits are smart and
graceful; but each suit is softened with artful touches of relief and decoration—but
tons, belts, sashes, slashes, plaitings, tassels, fur collars, braidings, drapings and
many other effective and original beauty features.
The Season's Showing of
Dainty Blouses
This season the blouse has won a new place for itself
in the fashionable woman's attire. No longer is it a
subsidiary element in relation to the suit. It occupies
a position all its own. The suit coat may be dispensed
with and the blouse takes the place of honor at tea,
luncheon or the matinee. There are exquisite new
models of georgette daintily beaded or hand-embroidered
and others finely hand made and 'lace trimmed. Infinite
is the variety in style and material.
Smart suit blouses of georgette crepe in the prevailing
suit colors. These dainty blouses are simple and refined
in detail with beads and embroidery. The collars and
cuffs are uncommonly fine and at this moderate pricing
the selection is unusual; $4.79 and up.
Charming are the new Fall Mouses in pretty tailored
models, and in the most delightful of soft materials,
which combine to make these among the most desired
blouses we have shown this season. Crepe de chine
and heavy pussy-willow Taffeta and La Jerse blouses
with the smart low collar and fascinating high neck
styles; $6.95, $8.95 and $11.95.
A distinctive blouse which bespeaks fine quality,
fashioned of georgette crepe in white and flesh with
Filet lace apron and collars, short sleeves and sash belt;
$13.95.
The new scarfs in angora and brush wool; all shades,
heather, Oxford, buff and shades of blue. Some with
Roman stripes and fringe, $3.50.
BOWMAN'S—Third Floor.
Infinite Variety in the
Millinery Section
Smart little turbans and sailors that are so trig with
veil for wear on the street and in the motor, irregular
brimmed large hats and youthful mushrooms demure
with ostrich fancies and rich ornaments of flowers and
ribbon. So great is the variety that you arc sure to
obtain millinery that is smart and wholly becoming.
The history of our hats, though short, is full of inci
dent. The upward tilt of a brim may be the clever work
of a New York designer. The deft curl of an ostrich
plume may be the idea of a Parisian milliner. The
ensemble is beautiful. The Bowman quality is evident
in the careful selection of style and detafl of finish in
workmanship. Priced at $4.95 to $32.50.
