So thoroughly thorough-ly is the go-to-school wardrobe theme being analyzed in these modern mod-ern times, leading stores have called college students into consultation consul-tation and after weeks of discussion discus-sion and consideration of collegiate needs, have established bureaus to which mothers and daughters are invited to come and plan with experts, ex-perts, wise in college lore, who know exactly what's what to wear on campus, at gridiron games, in classroom, going about town or for dance or during study hours in the seclusion of one's dormitoy. In laying the foundation for a well- have to do with the sporty practical prac-tical side of the question, but how about a flattering gown to wear to the prom? Longing for something that has a new "something different" differ-ent" look? Here it is the cunning velvet gown shown to the right. It has many interesting style-important highspots, outstanding among which is that it adopts the bi-color treatment. Carried out in teal blue equipped wardrobe one of the first essentials is a good sturdy topcoat that will weather the elements and come out none the worse for wear. It must have "style" aplenty, and if it is tailored to a nicety of handsome hand-some brown and white tweed, as pictured pic-tured to the left, it will meet the demands for a coat that will look well over any sports or tailored clothes. In this instance, stitched welt seams down the back give an effect of pleats that achieve ample flare without extreme fullness. The pleated skirt with a sweater top is a schoolgirl classic and should have a place in every collegiate wardrobe. The' girl seated in the group is wearing a 1938 version in that it is topped with a sweater-bolero sweater-bolero two-some. The knitted bolero bo-lero is making a big hit this season. The skirt here pictured is pleated of heavy navy silk crepe, but those of sheer wool are equally as chic, and as for the plaid skirt with sweater it ranks "tops" in fashion. The bolero here shown and the pull-on cap are of nubby handknit navy blue wool. The coat and sweater-bolero-pleated-skirt costume, as pictured, with deep plum (very smart new color combination) this quaint full-skirted full-skirted model is lovely. The jacket that stresses the narrowed-in waistline waist-line gives this dress its final touch of high-style. The bodice top underneath under-neath is formally low-cut. The three models shown make a good start in assembling a well-equipped well-equipped wardrobe, but there are other needs to be considered, such as the smart afternoon gown which is a necessary luxury with every young woman who keeps up sociifl activities. The fashion-wise girls are asking for dresses that glitter with nailheads. Some of them are studded stud-ded all over with nailheads, yet when all is said and done the effect is not bizarre. Then there are the new cloque fabrics, so ultra smart in Paris. They are made simply so as to serve as a foundation dress with the grand costume jewelry we are wearing this season. Plaid? 'Tis a magic word. Any thing in plaid, just so it's plaid a pleated skirt, a gorgeous plaid wool spectator sports coat to wear to the games, a shirtmaker dress of plaid, a plaid blouse and so on.
