MAYONNAISE— THE NEW COLOUR

WHEN AUTUMN COMES A new colour card has just been issued for the autumn. The colours claim to 'be a forecast of what will be worn in the coming autumn and winter, and have been compiled as a guide to the leading wholesale and retail distributors for advertisement and displays. It has been found that the question of colour is a difficult one, as now there are so many quaint, new shades, which do not answer to the ordinary descriptions used by many shopkeepers. These colours have been accepted by the Bradford Dyers’ Association. Wisteria, a mauve, reproducing the 3hade of the wisteria. Mayonnaise, described as soft and retiring yellow, of great delicacy, for afternoon and eveniug frocks. Ariel, a pale fairy-like blue. Prawn, a rich pink, with a slight tendency to old rose. Submarine, a cool green, suggesting the sea in an amiable mood. Pebble, a light fawn, for coats and skirts. Greenstone, the colour of New Zealand jade. Saracen red, a soft tone, to replace the vermilions that have had a vogue. Lomond blue, a tone approaching a lapis shade. Chocolate brown, which explains itself, and is a good autumn tone. FOR THE YOUNG ■ T , he tw o-toned mode, so effective in frocks for all ages, is again being stressed this season for the small miss. This time, georgette in soft ones and new shades is being introduced as a medium. The new blues, such as bleu Jhsapphire, blue Reine, and turquoise, wren developed in georgette, P ovide one of the most becoming types of frocks for children. * * in taff eta dresses are glimpsed nearly every salon, some in navy . ue ’ tfimmed with bright red or tiny necks, or scallops in plain taffeta, oemg very smart. Riu Utt ° n^°*e stitching, Rumanian or garian embroidery, and silk ribbon " eis if bouquets, comprise the -mart touches seen on most of the new frocks. * * * nnf i** 16 ta ® eta frocks, one stands , • **■ was developed in a gay plaid ate “ skirt, and a white taffeta on US *j taring a wide border down tx c. ’ and around the bottom of tue blouse.
