Miss Swigert's dress is of a brown and black mixed print, with a beige coat, while Miss Crawford wears a white dress, with contrasting-pattern and solid color coat in tangerine. r t Full Petticoats Retain Poularity for Coeds By PAT NORTON Lightweight fabrics, namely silk in combination with a multiplicity of other materials and in numer- ous colors, are the most talked about topics in the fashion world this Spring. Silk is the number one fabric, because it is light enough for the still- popular silhouette dress, yet when combined with linen it is ideal for the ensembles which are dominating the women's fashion scene. Used with wools and worsteds, silk is found in many of the Spring suits. Slim Dress The slim dress is popular with various styles of capes and cape- lets which add emphasis to the top of the silhouette. Women may choose a long coat ensemble with a print dress and plain coat in harmonizing colors. The popular miss will select wool and linen for daytime wear, while she will step out in silks, laces and satins for evening festivities. Or, "Miss Fashion" may select a bolero outft wiith either a short or waist length jacket, or perhaps a short semi-fitted jacket over a silhouette dress or a dress with many pleats-the smartest news for full skirts this Spring, Stole Ensembles Then, too, stole ensembles are extremely popular. On dress racks women will find slim one-piece dresses in wool and linen-weave silk with dramatic stoles which tie or button in the front. As well as various styles from which to choose, milady will find a variety of colors at her finger tips. Predominating the color scene are black, beiges, browns and blues ranging from the ever popu- lar navy to Persian blue, and deep turquoise. Bright Side On the bright side of the color wheel the smart miss will find shades ranging from apricot to the rising color, copper. Along the suit line this spring women will find that their waists Although the slim silhouette, as seen in the sheath dress, is fash- oin news for this spring, crinolines are still popular under formals, and other full skirted styles. * Crinolines, which for several years have been one of the most popular feminine frivolities, are by no means a recent fashion inno- vation. The petticoat -worn today orig-h nat'ed during the time of the court of Queen Elizabeth and James I. Crinolines in vogue at that time were supported by whalebone and were made of horsehair. Popular in 1850's In the 1850's the petticoat In- vaded the wardrobes of women of all ranks and classes. Reaching huge dimensions, they proved very uncomfortable and inconvenient to both the wearer and to those near- er her. These immense bell-shaped crin- oilnes left the- fashion scene in the late 1880's. The advent of the tiny waist and billowing circular skirts of about four years ago caused the crinoline to regain its popularity. A wide variety of styles and brand names appeared on the market, with the nylon hourse-hair type leading the fashion parade. Since the price was originally too high to accommodate most pocketbooks, many variations soon appeared which offered stiff petti- coats at more reasonable rates. Other Styles In addition to the nylon horse- hair garment, popular for its qual- ity of lasting stiffness, other styles are also big sellers. Petticoats are available in a variety of materials, much as nylon tricot, taffeta, net and crepe as well as cotton or- gandy. Crinolines come in several dif- ferent styles. One of the most pop- ular is the straight top with the flare beginning at. the hips. Also shown are novelty petti- coats, some of which have fancy fringed bottoms with dangling charms and artificial fruits. Fashion authorities advise the heavier coed, who contemplates wearing the full crinolines, not to do so. It is suggested that they avoid the gathered waist style and stick to the smooth hip-line pet- ticoat which is more flattering to the waist. Coeds Bow to Goddess of Beauty U If By ESTHER MARGOLIS Aphrodite, the goddess of nat- ural beauty, might turn over on her cloud if she could witness the advancements made by cosmetic manufacturers in furthering femi- nine loveliness and cleanliness. To enhance the sheen of your hair, try shampoo with color ac- cents. O n e reasonably - priced} shampoo is especially designed to bring out highlights in red and brown hair, to lighten blonde tres- ses and to elminate any yellow discoloration in silver 'tones. It will not harm or bleach the hair. Conditioners with coloring can be found on the market as a sup- plement to the shampoo. There's usually an uneven coloration in the normal head of hair. The dif- ference in shade is seen between the shaft and the ends of the hair. The new dressing creates an even- ness in color and brings out the natural luster. Wet Hair Vanishes It isn't necessary to go around with wet hair after a shampoo. A new spray, now on sale, will dry the hair swifter than nature. But no time to shampoo? Then try another spray that will revive and wave the hair, while cleansing. For those who like to shampoo their hair in the shower there is a new lavender-scented cream shampoo in an unbreakable tube with anattached plastic top. The tube is also equipped with a cord which enables it to be hung con- veniently over the shower faucet. The face must not be neglected either. Spot sticks applied before; the foundation make-up cover blemishes, lines or cracks. One brand contains an antiseptic which will heal the blemish while concealing it. Scented Cream A recently developed product is a sweetly-scented cream which dries when applied to the face. This product which may be pur- chased for home use takes the place of a mud-pack facial. As a base try a new velvety liq- uid foundation make-up. This preparation's chief selling point is that it doesn't change color under different lighting conditions. After the foundation, the fea- tures come in for their share of attention. Accent the eyes with effective opalescent eyeshadow, which is toned with silver. Be- sides the ordinary small case, it's now put out in a tube for greater convience. Eyelashes may be emphasized with a colored pomade instead of mascara. This'cream will not rub into the eyes and has a unique effect when used with an eye- last curler. Rouge for Naturalness Liquid rouge is still the best compliment for the cheeks, it creates .a more natural look. There is now a concern manu- facturing two lipsticks of the same shade, one for day and one for evening wear, because lights have a different effect on the lip color. For example, clear red lipstick appears orange at night. To avoid this change, manufacturers sell two lipsticks in a combination package so that the color selected will always appear the same tone. Indelible Accessory Women now enjoy the advant- age of indelible lipsticks. Ong company has introduced an un- dercoat that will insure indelibil- ity of any lipstick. In the form of R-Tone for red, V-tone for blue-red and T-V for orange, this undercoat is also worn alone. The hands are another focal point. The skin should be lubri- cated with a whipped hand cream. Coming in a can with a spout, like men's shaving cream, this rea- sonably-priced lotion works into the hands, is absorbed and is non- sticky. Hand lotion is a must every time the hands are washed. To aid this habit, manufacturers put on the market foil-wrapped purse packets of cream. Designed for the "use once and throw away" idea, the packets- come in boxes of 96 packages. Cologne Foam An application of cologne-foam all-body lotion, scented with dif- ferent scents, completes the beau- ty treatment. But for the dieting coed, a clin- ically tested and approved body lotion is available which will mas- sage and make the skin firm after loss of weight! Dietary aids and cosmetics have been found to mix successfully. hat the next move is, Aphrodite only knows. It's doubtful that she will even tell. But it will be discovered next season, to be sure! have been brought out of hiding. Jackets are shorter, yet do not have that "pinched in" look. They will also mould rather than em- phasize miladies hips. Leading the suiting is silk worsted in a variety of stripes and checks. Because of this, suits will be ideal to wear under coats on chilly days. Pretty, Feminine, Young banging from dressmaker styles to soft casuals, suits will have as their common denominator de- signs which make them pretty, feminine and young. Designers have obtained the pretty and feminine effect in cas- ual suits by adding inserts of velvet, new nevk and shoulder lines. Stand away collars which frame the face are the number one news in necklines. Headlining the collars will be cuff, cape and draped scarf styles. Softness Predominates Highlighting the shoulders, the fashion conscious woman will find softness predominating. Generally the sleeves will not be set-in, and they will be shorter, from bracelet to three-quarter length. Added touches which will give a feminine appeal will be pockets. The newsmaker being pockets placed low on the jackets gener- ally at the hemlines. Bows on the lapels, jacket hem- lines and pockets will also lend a feminine touch to the popular miss's spring suit. Kick Pleats Her skirt will be slim with a great variety of kick pleats. ,The color story in suits for spring centers around blues, which range from medium to pastels to cornflower blues, and beige rang- ing from pale to mocha. Vivid colors will also be seen in the suits worn by women this spring. Red will predominate in various shades from bright to wild strawberry, a "pink red." P.

When choosing the proper per- fume several factors must be taken into account. The buyer must consider her own personality and the occassion on which the perfume will be worn. Most coeds prefer a spicy or light -floral fragrance for every day use and a more sophisticated one for wear on special occassions. Most manufacturers offer a com- plete line of fragrance accessor- ies in addition to the standard perfume, toilet water and cologne. Scented deordorants, shampoosI and cosmetics are available which match perfume fragrances. Items such as sachet, dusting and talcum powder, soaps, bath oil, bath salts and bubble bath powder are also offered to the discriminating woman. An ingenious ways to make the most of cologne is to pour a few drops in shampoo rinse water for delightfully scented hair. Cologne may also be sprayed on light bulbs and when they warm up they scent the room. When pressing delicate lingerie, if cologne is sprayed on the iron- ing board first, the scent will per- meate the material.
