Colors lean to sleek, rich browns—grey-taupes—deep, import­ ant blues—much, much black—and a new and discreet use of violet and purple. This last is often combined with blue or grey . . . sometimes with black. New greens are deep, woodsy, very flattering. Reds are understated, coppery, deftly used but not too emphatic. Accessory colors pick out the highlights. Or­ ange is BUT GOOD—gold can be a bright accent if not overdone. Beige, red in deeper tones, greyed blues are all accents for tomorrow. New note in all this paegentry is the subtle blending of shades to give an overtone of complete costuming. Thus, everything from hat to smart, slim, neatly fitting full fashioned hose are a part of the costume . . . and, usually, not a part of any other costume. It is a year of color wardrobes, especially in accessories. And news in the color wardrobe theme is the costume-blending dark­ er shades of your full-fashioned stockings! w. ROSS ANDREWS, R-O.
