HILTON While it will be the gay colors By Of and the unique designs of the formal gowns that will give the J-Hop its gala atmosphere, it will be the dark dress suits of the male half of the species that will furnish the back- ground and enhance the attractive qualities of each frock by the con- trast. Midnight blue, which appears blacker than black under the light, has become the accepted shade for both tuxedoe's and full dress in Uni- versity circles the country 'round. The somber black, though still being used, is just a little too dull for those stu- dents'who wish a dash that will show up well with the lighter shades worn by each exciting bit of femininity. Formality Is Stressed Because of the increasing trend for more formality, full dress, complete with white tie and tails, will be the predominate theme in men's dress. The tux, however, will still be seen, as its comfort values are obvious" when one compares the advantages of sitting down naturally and the dis- advantages of having to sit with care. The double-breasted style of coat will be the favorite in tuxes, with the puffiness in the chest being transferred to the region directly under the arms to allow for freer arm movement. A shawl collar is used on the double-breasted suit, while the old favorite peaked lapels will still be used on the singl'ebreasted suits. Black vests, to be used with the latter, are following the trend of the white vests used in the white-tie ensemble. The lapels drop straight down the chest to the level of the first button and then execute a 90-degree turn, end- ing their existence at the point of contact with the button. It gives a DRUGS - circle-within-a-square effect that is decidedly virile in intent. Full Dress Is Tops { Full dress will be tops, however, and a decided necessity to this en- sembe is the new wing collar worn with the shirt. It stands fully an, inch higher than that formerly used. Those devotees of the white tie, worn1 only with full dress, will find that1 the exact height of the collar must be varied according to the individual, but, it must be high er than formerly. A new feature in studs, already seen on the campus, is gold. For the strictly formal suit they can be had in pearl, mounted in gold. A small gold tear drop is placed in the exact center of the stud. For the less for- mnal tuxes, the studs are made of solid gold. The cuff links, of course, match the studs. Another accessory, now included on the must list, is the gold or silver woven watch chain, gold if your studs are gold and silver if your studs are plain pearl or smoked stone. It is usually anchored in the watch pocket of the trousers and, droped down to the utility pocket. With single-breast- ed tuxes, however, it may be worn in usual vest pocket. If you happen to be flush, your white cord-knit scarf will give that new military coat, designed strictly for formal wear, the distinction achieved by those who are smartly dressed. The coat is light weight, featuring a flaring skirt and the short collar made popular by the trench coat. The guards model, how- ever, will be the dominant style. A Homberg or topper, as the suit de- mands, will compete the outfit. Some of the hat companies are making the toppers in midnight blue. Ill' IF . IF IT IS ANYTHING PHOTOGRAPHIC Ask G. R.
