Especially are our American style creators doing themselves them-selves proud in the campus, town and country ensembles which they create of gorgeous colorful wool and stunning fur. Not only do the costumes pictured redound to the glory of American designers but there is fascination and patriotic thrill in the thought that the fur, American opossum, which is combined with the beautiful ' wools of these stunning costumes, is itself decidedly all-American. The possibilities presented in this new alliance of wool with- opossum opos-sum are endless. Not only is opossum opos-sum a flattering young fur when used for general utility costumes, but through scientific skill it has also been made available for dressy daytime and evening wear as well as for all-purpose wear. A beautifully cut coat is shown to the left in the group. The exquisitely ex-quisitely colorful wool stripe of which it is made speaks for itself. Now that fashion is advocating color, women are going in wholeheartedly whole-heartedly for coats that add a bold dash of color glory to the winter landscape. The soft front fullness achieved by skillful manipulation of the stripes is decidedly effective. The wide notched collar and cuffs of natural American opossum are perfect per-fect with the subtle blue, lavender nd pink in the tweed. When one invests in a three-piece three-piece outfit as perfectly ensembled as the handsome model shown to the right, she has underwritten for herself a feeling that wherever- she goes she is sure to be among the best dressed. This important ensemble en-semble for town carries an air of matchless distinction. The suit is a masterpiece of fine tailoring. The three-quarter length cape of American Amer-ican opossum with striped tweed to match the suit will carry through triumphantly as a wrap to wear through the winter with daytime frocks and party dress as well. A sure, safe, sound and sane investment, invest-ment, this, that will pay big dividends divi-dends in chic, charm and self-grati-fication. Centered in the picture is another example of the intrigue and glamour expressed in the alliance of bright wool with smart fur. The coat is lined with a plaid wool in glowing high color to match the hood and blouse. When thrown back, the hood forms a colorfully lined collar. The jacket and skirt pick up two of the colors in the plaid. Mittens too, if you please, of matching fur! If your new wool ensemble happens hap-pens to be of wool in the now-so-fashionable magenta color, and if it is without fur, you will look very smart if you carry with it a (tunning huge muff of opossum, and, of course, there must be a hat of the same fur to wear with it The hat and muff twosome is an accessory combination especially cited among topnotch fashions. Colors highlighted in wools this season especially stress browns and dark greens. The new bright blue is the talk of the town. With furs it is outstanding in any fashionable gathering. Amethyst tones and purples pur-ples also are being played up to heights of distinction in wools, their beauty accentuated with handsome amethyst jewelry and sumptuous furs.
