the generally gayer mood is reflected in the new styles for mens formal and semiformal evening wear besides the recent incursion of midnight blue into the whole field of evening wear there arc changes

are higher and the chest is fuller add to this the lengthen ing of the tails on the tailcoat to a point slightly below the knee and it at once becomes apparent that the lines of this new fall evening
