(K'N Styles Are Kaleidoscopic; No Definite Trends Being Emphasized High Shoulders Is One Spring Trend Taffeta Petticoats, Straight Or Full Skirts, Bias Or Not, Depends On You By FLORENCE H. DAVIES "Individuality running wild" is the theme used by designers in creating the new spring clothes which have virtually swamped the stores in a blaze of color. There is no particular trend being featured; 1936 has cre- ated her own styles and they are kaleidoscopic. In making a selection, then, wheth- er it be a suit for campus, an after- noon tea dress, a striking gown for the Union or League or even a formal, consider only what seems to suit your own personality and play that up to its fullest extent. High Shoulders Favored Specifically, here are opportunities for individual selection. High-shoul- dered Filipino sleeves with square folded fulness are smart; but then, again, so are feminine capes with sloping shoulders. On the whole, it would seem that designers tend some- what to feature the high shoulder. Piguet, for instance, favors peaked shoulders, which, believe it or not, rise nearly to the ears. Vionnet seems. to prefer folds or gathers; Jean Patou, the raglan cut. Alix gathers sleeves in back of the arm seams; Maggy Rouff, in front of the arm seam. Lanvin catches these in an amazing hooped manner, Molyneux's sleeves following the sloping style. Straight skirts, as well as volumi- nous circular ones, are being shown. Taffeta petticoats have a way of making full skirts stand out smartly. Net and organdie evening skirts may be stiffened with cording. Others are made up on the bias or along slim, straight lines. Length of skirt, likewise, depends on the individual, although the general trend is toward shorter models. Waist-Lines High As to waist-lines, they are mostly high. The high effect, however, can be achieved in a variety of ways. Some skirts are continued above the belt;nsome tend toward Empire lines for evening and bust-line yokes for day. One clever way of creating height of waist-line is to feature a yoke of a contrasting color. Chinese tunics lend height in a way all their own. And speaking of tunics, they are destined to play an important role this season. Forms of the tunic, how- ever, are interpreted in many differ- ent ways. Tunics by Maggy Rouff have cossack flares, long sleeves, high necks and tight bodices. Mainbocher is designing them with full ballet skirts. Some others are tailored straight with, perhaps, a slight flare. Pleats must not be neglected in the mad scramble for originality. Pin- pleats are favored and come pressed so tightly together that they may be mistaken for crinkled crepe. En- tire dresses and even coats are made up of them. Accordion pleats set off blouses to advantage; box pleats are used to give fullness to skirts. Flared And Tailored Here's the news in jackets. At one extreme they are brought out in great flares, circular or pleated, be- low the yokes-length of sleeve to the knuckles. At the other extreme, they are nicely tailored, some curved up in back and down in front like waist coats and fitted so snugly as to reveal every slender curve. Box jackets and boleros still linger. By the way, the smartest thing one can do these days, it seems, is to button a jacket on backwards. Now for a word about color. Gray isnholding the spotlights, followed by an array of black, blue, almond, cy- clamin, pink and turquoise. White, too, is everywhere. Prints are very good and are being covered up by a multitude of distinctive designs- frnm.,. , ,'nrlrlitin.jfmatoh'1reauins. Wide Assortment Of Accessories In SpringEnsembles A new Spring ensemble this year means not merely a nastily-matched group of accessories. Manufacturers and designers, being definitely suit- minded, have created a new style, neither suit nor dress, which prom- ises to be as popular as it is practical and goodlooking. For instance, a smooth woolen dress, beautifully tailored, is matched by a swagger coat lined with dotted taffeta. The dress snows the Chinese influence by its tiny upstanding col- lar and a row of shiny clips down the front. Another outfit shown in a local shop is fashioned of thin gray woolen, the only ornamentation being a row of outwork around the neck. The coat, of the gray, features the popular full shoulders and swagger length. The extra-smart print and plain combination is shown to best advan- tage in an ensemble formed of a dark skirt with print top, its soft ruffled collar rippling down the front. The plain jacket is lined and faced with the print and may be reversed to form a more gay, striking effect. The redingote, a perennial fashion, is even better than ever this season. A dress of colorful print, with a tiny figure, emphasizes such fashion points as the smaller waist and pleated skirt. A wide swath of the material is tied in a soft bow at the neck. A flecked wool coat with puffed-out shoulders is tightly belted but left unfastened down the front to reveal the dress be- neath. The tiny hat of the print is topped by a disk of wool to match the coat. (6 nating colors. The ever-popular navy blue and white combinations are charming in tailored dresses with three-quarter or elbow-length sleeves. A frock that looks especially smart is of plain navy blue with short sleeves and wide cuffs. It is trimmed with white grosgrain, a panel of which runs all the way down the front, and has a little collar of the same material with a perky bow in front. Pearl-gray frocks will also be popular this spring, and many of them are now being shown. Plaid taffeta blouses over dark skirts will make attractive informal attire for spring. They have full, leg-o-mutton sleeves and long, gath- ered peplums. Pert little collars with contrasting bows set off the colors. Gay prints ire irresistible for their cool, fresh appearance. Some of them have dozens of pleats in the skirt, and deftly-handled pique trimming gives them the appearance of a suit. VEILS SOFTEN BRIMS Veils are much in the vogue this year and are being employed pri- marily to soften brims. VgUILM LIy IU UI 1 I~l years. As to neckline, boat necks are smart and are found on both car- digan and plain sweaters. Costume jewelry may be worn with them most successfully. Another good-looking neckline is achieved by a little round collar. The style to wear with a strictly sports costume is a new rib- bed cotton knit, absolutely plain, made in pastels only. A novelty note is introduced by the tyrolean sweaters, which come in bright tones embroidered with dif- ferent colored flowers. They are made in a vest style and are intended to be worn over blouses. On a model was a bright yellow sweater embroidered with little red and green flowers, and worn over a brown linen blouse. Knitted suits are enthusiastically received this sprirng. Angora en- sembles are even more popular than boucles. These angora suits are made on the same priciple as the sweaters, simple in style, almost plain, with the emphasis on the color and texture. They are guaranteed not to wrinkle, sag, shrink or stretch, but .they will wash.' Wear DEXDALE TRU CREPE * Gazelle - for Blue and Grey. ..Natural Lace for Beige and Grey. . .
