We use Optical Character Recognition (OCR) during our scanning and processing workflow to make the content of each page searchable. You can view the automatically generated text below as well as copy and paste individual pieces of text to quote in your own work.
Text recognition is never 100% accurate. Many parts of the scanned page may not be reflected in the OCR text output, including: images, page layout, certain fonts or handwriting.
High-light fabrics, rich trimmings, eyelet embroidery, the peasant influence, distinguish the new fall clothes
SKIRTS are shorter, styles more elaborate, fabrics luxurious in themselves, with the advent of Fall. The strict tailleur has done a disappearing act and the Master Minds concentrate on glamour even for daytime with, we think, considerable success. And these Tower Star Fashions are very inexpensive.
Opposite page, photograph above: Brilliant young Constance Cummings, legitimate actress and screen star, will next appear in "Amateur Girl." Here she wears an afternoon ensemble of novelty matelasse. The dress' formal sleeves come through the deep kimonocut armholes of the jacket. There's a stand-away neck of pique, tiny buttons down the back and an apron style belt to give a smooth hipline.
Seated: Katharine Sergava, beautiful Paramount actress, chooses a peasant-style afternoon dress of Roughtone crepe, satin backed. The shoulders are dropped and embroidered with epaulet medallions. The full bishop sleeves are attached with cartridge pleats. The waist is bloused, with a straight peplum.
Sketched lower left: Miss Cummings' sports coat for the first fall days is warm without being bulky, of Kragshire woolen in a shadow-plaid. The collar buttons high with a tab under the chin for football weather and there are deep cuffs and big patch pockets.
Sketched standing, above: Miss Sergava's novelty alpaca afternoon dress with cross fox banding on the cape-sleeved jacket. The dress has a full shirred bodice, a slim gored skirt and a shallow yoke shoulder-line.
Sketched seated, above: A note of luxury appears again in Miss Cummings' chenille embroidered chukker crepe afternoon frock. The blouse is full and soft, peasant style, and groups of knife pleats set low in front and back make the new skirt.
Photograph, above: A glint of gold again in Miss Sergava's dinner gown of striped chiffon. Both the blouse and skirt have the dramatic fish-tail back and the blouse's Chinese stand-up collar has frog fastenings that are repeated on the chiffon belt.
