I i By BARBARA LOVELL With the opening o% the concert season, the feminine of the species of music addicts begins to wonder justj what would constitute appropriate dress at Hill Auditorium the night of Oct. 17. If you are sitting where you have to stretch your neck to see the pef- former's feet, you may indulge in a degree of formality which would not be permissible in the top rpw of the second balcony. A safe stand-f ard to follow would be the long skirt I and covered shoulders and back idea. A black skirt of the new, uncrushable velvet, brought to life by a gleaming gold figured satin blouse would be. absolutely correct for plutocrats with first-floor center seats. The reliable black skirt in crepe i might also be contrasted with a velvett top in powder-blue velvet. This par- ticular blouse has short# sleeves. smocked at the cuff and distinguished1 by the new Shiaparelli-pointed shoul- ders. Covered buttons march down the front, adding a tailored air to the, soft fabric. A pink lace blouse, bright-; ened by sparkling brilliants, might constitute an alternate.- The novel unmarkable velvet ap- pears again and again in this season's styles. Made up in a black full- skirted model, its square neck and puffed sleeves edged in Irish lace, it! is suitable for almost any formal oc- casion. Black velvet is fashioned in' clinging lines in another dress and unrelieved except by a band of bright blue and green sequins around the waist. Lace is another of those happy con- cert-going materials which never mark or wrinkle. A formal of tur- quoise lace, fitted on Empire lines,1 and contrasted by dubonnet velvet ribbon, is made into an informal dress! for your musical interludes by the addition of a matching jacket, fast- cned with little covered buttons. Evening coats to go over your best i dress seem to have more imaginationI this year. The old stand-by black velvet is still good, but more and more wraps in dramatic jewel tones are making their appearance. A royal blue velvet cape with a white lapi, ! Peter Pan collar is dramatic for al trek down the aisle, and a dubonnet velvet lined with swishy taffeta is' guaranteed to create a disturbance before the opening notes ring out. Short flared jackets in rich bro- cades or moires are for those who wish something a little different from the popular velvet. And, of course, a good fur coat is the perfect comple- ment to a beautiful formal. Those who will sit in the balconies will do better to wear short dresses and hats if they wish to feel in- conspicuous. Tailored velveteens are smartly casual. If you wish, how- ever, to be more comfortable up in the farthest reaches of the Auditor- ium where the temperature is apt to be rather high by the time inter- mission rolls around, you might choose a thin challis or crepe. {e aA n.!
