The ensemble look will be a popular fashion as the September days become cooler. Slim tweed skirts in tones of brown and black with matching full-length or walking-length coats will make striking outfits. The lining of the coat and sweaters and jersey blouses are dyed to match and blend and complete the outfit.
Dyed-to-match sweaters and skirts are again a popular campus fashion. Skirts of tweed, wool, and flannel in autumn shades match pull-over or cardigan sweaters for class wear. The outfit is dressed up with a wide flaring skirt and matching cardi-

The oversized, deep "sack" bag is striking in suede, and slim envelopes are getting attention from coeds.

Housemothers May Get I. D. Cards
The richness of the fabric is the important factor in fall cocktail dresses. Most outfits are cut in simple lines and rely on the fabric for beauty. Rich broches, velvet, and satin are important materials. Satin cloches complete the cocktail dress along with large rhinestone pins placed at the shoulder or cuff.
Although some long formals are being shown for fall, the ankle and ballerina-length are still the coed's favorite. Formals are also following the simple cut and allowing the fabric of the dress to bring out the beauty and line.

The forecast of fall colors places new emphasis on light to dark, and new shades with tonal values are featured.
