THE MICHIGAN DAILY b gue Fashion Show s ts In Coming Easter Style 'araae Men's, Women's Styles Featured At Fashion Show Student Models To Be Used Exclusively, Don- ning Styles Old And New Beginning with a review of what the fashion-rights wore many years ago, the fashion show to be held to- day in the main ballroom of the League, will finish with what is most popular in men's and women's clothes today, according to Mary O'Brien, general chairman. Both men and women's styles will be modelled. The women who will model are Mary Stirling, '35, Vinselle Bartlett, '33, Jeanne Delamarter, '35, Mildred Bosma, '35. The show will be continuous from 3:30 until 6 p. m. and refreshments served buffet style will be offered the guests. For this a charge of ten cents will be made. Ann Arbor merchants are contrib- uting the merchandise that will be modelled to display what the smart world is wearing to every sort of function from sports to fo'rmal. The old-fashioned costumes, however, have been contributed by several well-known figure on campus, Dean Alice Lloyd, Louis P.

The young April bride and her bridesmaids will find a number of styles and mate- rials at their disposal. Brides, as al- ways, may be gowned in satin; but, in addition, cloquet, organdy, and especially mousseline are very pop- ular. Many of the latest wedding gowns are of satin and lace-a heavy lace with an angelskin finish. High, plain necklines, relieved by sleeves puffed over the shoulders but fitting snugly at the wrists, are very effectual. The last word in wedding veils is the new mousseline veil which stands out just as stiffly as tulle and is more flattering. Gloves may be worn or not; but if so, simple white suede ones are being shown for this purpose. Bridesmaids' dresses are nearly all of mousseline de sole, frequently trimmed with velvet sashes, and tur- bans are worn to match. However, thenvery latest in the fashionable world are little flowered muffs and hats which fairly breathe of spring. Small Evening Hats And Flimsy Bows Are Mode "Would'st thou feel thyself all that is charming in the modern mode, fair lady?" Then put on top of your new coiffure one of these evening hats that are so small as to be micro- scopic but in their materials rest their attraction.

Delightfully gy stripes, rampant flowers, and plain chiffons combine in wholly dif- ferent gowns. Victorian coyness and 20th century sophistication are weld- ed together in unbelievable perfec- tion. Parisian designers have vied to produce unusual formals and start- ling wraps. Schiaparelli uses coq feathers on two different gowns. One is of a heavy clinging crepe that has an ap- preciable train. The feathers are on each shoulder and drape over the arms gracefully. The other dress is of a more subtle type in a clinging 'fabric of black. White coq feathers are used at the shoulders at the bot- tom of an extreme decolletage. The prizes and awards should real- ly go to the figured formals. Enor-' mous plaid of pale pink and green is used in one dress. Old striped combinations of white, yellow, orange, green cut elaborately for a more ef- fective use of the stripes'are a favor- ite with designers this spring.

It is being revived this season .or a certain type of fluffy evening dress with deep ruffles around the skirt and a rustling train. robe. Oriental and colonial fashions were also introduced during the Na- poleonic wars. Hourglass Silhouette By 1815 the hourgiass silhouette was becoming the mode. The bodice fitted closely and the waist was held in tightly with a corset. The breadth of shoulders was accentuated by wide bertha collars and huge leg o' mutton sleeves. In 1840 the fashions took a more graceful turn; the sleeves were not so full, skirts became longer and more flowing, and the women acquired more grace. However, the mode could not stay simple for very long, and in 1850 the crinoline, or hoop-skirt, holding out masses of fine ruffle came into be- ing. The skirts were often as much as ten yards in circumference.
