High on the list of the well dressed man is the worsted flannel charcoal brown suit with its international air and continental fit.

The fabric, being of a lighter weight gives the necessary importance to its slimmer cut. The low cut, slim Italian design ed shoe is a must for the well dressed Ivy Leaguer. BILL SIMMONS models charcoal brown flannel suit, cut In the Ivy League pattern, and slim low cut Italian designed shoes.

AU. 6 4950 GRADIS I TO ALL DAY PROGRAM Jtaaionoba Rataa CUmanca Sabouna, Diiactot DREAM SEQUENCE As sketched by Matiele Ria The designer suggests material of Fashions In Jewelry By BILLYE The high style look for this fall and winter season, and probably for the next few years, is slim. The sheath dress and the straight skirt have renlapprf thn bouffant look of time past few years. Sometimes there is full ness introduced into the silhou ette, a below the knees flare to the skirt, a wide flared peplum over a slim skirt or a very full bloused back on an otherwise slim dress or suit, but this full ness is ricidlv controlled serves only to emphasize the pared down look of the garment. True, there are fashion wise in dividuals who will so on hannilv with full skirts and princess style dresses because thev realize that these lines do the most for the female figure, especially if the figure is rather consnicuouslv fe male.

The full skirt and the prin cess style dress are never com pletely out of the fashion picture because they are universally be coming. LESS MATERIAL, BIGGER ACCESSORIES But when fashion decrees less material in dresses, suits, and coats, accessories become more important. Handgags become lar ger, gloves become longer and more elaborate and jewelry becomes bulkier. Now we see the return of big bold stones and mas sive settings, smart women everywhere have always realized that one important piece of jewelry can make an outfit and this fall they are offered a large selection of "conversation piece" type jewelry than has been readily available of a number of years. There are cuff links as large as silver dollars; earrings are huge clusters of jewels clinging to the earlobe or large drops brushing the shoulders.

Bracelets are enormous or worn by the dozen. Replacing the ubiquitous ropes and chokers of past seasons are elaborate collars and bibs of beads for low cut necklines and huge Workers Wanted PROMPT PLACEMENT TRANSPORTATION ttqitUi Now a its of a pastel mat Jersey 'or chiffon with the flying panels of starched chiffon or brocade. OLIVER pendants to be used with high neckline woolens or sweaters. UNUSUAL MOUNTINGS Rings are enormous. Some have single stones in unusual mountings and some, clusters of stones that make it look as though it's an ef fort for the wearer to lift her hand.

Huge rings can make even capable and fairly good sized hand look impossibly fragile. I'm sure that I need not point out, however, that no matter how well chosen your jewelry, it loses importance if piled on indis criminately. Huge drop earrings worn with a necklace can submerge the wearer's personality. As I mentioned above, a single noteworthy piece jewelry can make a costume. However, if you have lots of jewelry and enjoy wearing it, do try to wear it as widely separat ed as possible; For instance, a ring or bracelet with earrings; an armload of bracelets on one arm and a ring on the other hand; a clip or pin to match or corres pond with a ring of bracelets; or belt buckle or earrings to go with your cuff links.

In a future article I will discuss the variety of beautiful semi precious stones available to the person with the "champagne taste," who would adore real jewels but cannot afford the only real jewels with which she is familiar, such as diamonds, emeralds, and other precious stones. Ria's Fashion Moods By MATIELE RIA For every woman there is an impulse (not wholly directed by vanity) to discover new ways of being beautiful desired. She seeks, into her deepest dreams for new fashion trends. Dream forecast: It is a woman's privilege to change her mind and her hair, too. Once it was brunette to blond.

Now it's the other way around black is black as the raven "ever more." With it, of course, goes a change of make up your complexion self made a "do it yourself' formula, correct diet, fresh air, sufficient rest, special skin care, your prescription.

She is a member of Pi Lambda Theta, Delta Kappa Delta Pi and the National Association of Deans of Women. Did you know that besides being annoying to others It is AGAINST THE LAW to use profane, obscene or vulgar language in public? Kjessorits FASHION CHARM THIS IS THE SEASON dation correct for you to adapt every nuance of your figure to the long torso line that today's fashion demands.

Gloves woven in fabric that feels, looks like leather, simply thrives on washing and wearing. Slim lines, Paris styled in costume col ors. A huge muff instead of a hand bag clutch size muff according to your size. Fur for warmth wool to match satin for glamour. When we speak of fashion, we oftimes think of England, Italy, Paris and New York.

Ah! Let not forget the women who sew. They purchase a pattern, a few yards of fabric home to cut out the garment uhl the mistake. She doesn't discard it.
