Inside this Book – Multiple adjectives before a noun may or may not have commas between them, depending on the adjectives’ relationship to the noun. Coordinate adjectives, which each modify the noun independently, are separated by commas: He wants to meet a kind, gentle, sweet girl. Noncoordinate adjectives, which have different relationships to the noun, often take no commas between them. For example, in He wore bright red wingtip shoes, wingtip is more integral to the noun than the other adjectives and bright modifies not the noun shoes but the adjective that immediately follows it, red. So the adjectives in bright red wingtip shoes are not coordinate and not separated by commas.
