To be exceedingly smart this season, then, it is necessary merely to choose your favored type of Masculine Tailored Costume, complete it with its correct accessories, and wear it anywhere in daytime. Six Distinct Types of the Masculine Tailored Suit Emphasize the fact that the tailored suit fashion is a fashion for many types of women. The Fitted Tailleur, O’'Rossen type, nipped-in waistline. The Double-Breasted Boyish Suit, with fairly short jacket. The Strict, Braid-Bound, Single-Button Tailleur. The Boyish Suit, with lingerie collar and cuffs. The Tailleur with Longer Jacket, for the more mature woman. The Two-Button, Single-Breasted Tailored Suit. Developed and tailored in alpaca, men’s wear, hairline stripes, twills, piquetine, ox- ford, fine tweeds and velour checks. We sketch two of these smart Tailored Suits; the O’Rossen type, double-breasted suit, in twill, with white pique pipings, $75; the boyish, double-breasted tailleur, in black alpaca, $59.50.

Frocks Adopt Mannish - Tailored Lines ' —but they are as varied in style as they are in fabric and color. The tailored silhouette i adopted even by silk—it imitates the trim, slen- der lines and strict tailoring of suits, but adds to the present smartness of suits, the comfort and practicality of a one-piece frock. Boyish satin frocks that button all the way down the front—and wear smart little boyish collars— are the last word here.
