Jc . r.* SUMMER REFRESHMENTS Eye shadow is becoming more evident while rouge is less con- spicuous. The accent is on the eyes not the cheeks. Silvery eye shadow for gala affairs adds to the opalescent appearance. New lipsticks are lighter and more lus- trous. This spring, a new fashion ex- pression can be found in per- fumes. A beauty strategem, the eye reflects the costume's color. It is done so that eye shadows pick up the color other eyes see. When wearing an emerald neck- lace, emerald eye shadow should be applied. "Beauty" can be stroked on with a perfume stopper. Examples of this are Magic, by Lancome and Nina Ricci's I'Air du Temps. A natural setting for the strik- ingly shadowed eye is a gentle natural brow-line with velvety lashes. The waterproof mascara and eyebrow pencil are cream- based formulae. This spring the old adage "She is a pearl of a girl" may come true ! Jewelry Compliments Spring Dress Colorful String Beads, Many Gold Bracelets Regain Old Popularity By CAROLINE MILLER Pearls have long been considered a woman's special jewel. Now man has made pearls avail- able to every woman regardless of social status. The discovery of fresh water pearls with their like- ness to the more common salt water jewel cut the cost to fit any woman's budget. A clever combination of fresh water pearl and gold has made big news in this season's fashion scene. Earrings, bracelets, necklaces and brooches are intrinsically fashion- ed for "fairlady." Simplicity . . In earrings the call this year is for simplicity. Large buttons of gold and while combinations will find their way to the fashion-con- scious coed's ear. Reminiscent of the gay twen- ties, long strands of beads are again in style. They're designed to compliment the plain tailored dress or the casual suit this year. Especially bright beads of red or turquoise will give stunning con- trast to that white summer dress. Artificial shells in iridescent shades of white and blue, pink and yellow will also spark-up a summer dress. Large gold bracelets bedeck the woman's arm this year. The old fashioned gold circle with scroll- like engraving is enjoying a well- hailed comeback. Plain gold circles are a popular brightener for a dark summer frock and cuff-like bracelets in gold add an ancient Egyptian look to the modern American ladies' wardrobe. Sparkling Wrists . .. A combination of rhinestone, gold and pearl makes a striking bracelet. With earrings to match, this set should please the woman' who is looking for inexpensive costume jewelry. Barrettes can add a real touch of femininity to the woman with long hair. Rhinestones for dress put a "bit of the stars" into her tresses. Engraved sterling silver or gold-plated barrettes are ideal for keeping, stray locks in place in windy spring weather. Dress brooches in rhinestones can dress up a plain black dress. Large or small, these sparkling "jewels" add life to an otherwise drab tailored outfit. For the man-style shirt with French cuffs, large cuff links are important fashion-extras, which add a well-dressed touch. By ROSE PERLBERG Do you look to the end of the sweater season with mixed emo- tions? Glad that the weather has become warm enough to shed woolens, but dreading the thought of ironing those cottons? Chemical research and ideas of designers in the ever-growing fab- ric field have ironed out your problem once and for all. Aptly-named "miracle fibers" have taken an important place in the wardrobe of coed or career woman, the woman geared to the fast pace of modern life, the wom- an who doesn't have the time or energy to spend over a steamy ironing board. Lingerie, blouses, dress suits, are all made of miracle fibers these days. And the combinations of chemical fibers that reach the market give the fashion-conscious woman a wide variety from which to choose. For instance, a new development in yarns has resulted in a 100 per cent Dacron fabric that is already well -on the way to becoming a favorite for misses shirts. Now Taslon . ... Technically, it's a new bulking process called "Taslan," a trade mark used by its manufacturer to designate the textured yarns they are developing by rearranging continuous filament man-made fibers. The new product claims a rich, warm, touch and firm, but light weight. Although opaque, it's por- ous and cool and guaranteed com- pletely drip-dry and no-iron. Other dacron news sees the fab- ric in mixtures with wool, cotton and other year-in, year-out stan- dards. A dacron-wool mixture gives your spring suit the lightness, yet warmth it needs and helps to keep it wrinkle resistant. Dacron weaves its way into cot- ton to give the wearer the same lightness and wrinkle shedding en- joyment. Coeds who own mixture blouses remark on the ease with which they can wash them and hang them up to drip dry without ironing. Theykespecially like the way dacron keeps them looking fresh all the time. Dacrons with rayon and silk have also found their way into the fashion trend and seem there to stay. Giving a new strength to the more perishable materials, the miracle fibers boast longer wear and better looking garments. Those familiar with the miracle fibers know that pattern and style are not limited. Checks, plaids, ivy- league or sophisticate are made of the new fabrics. No Ironing . . A coed tells of the many com- pliments she gets on her well- ironed ivy-league shirts. She con- fides that they're mainly dacrons in mixtures and need little or no ironing. Wash and press ease isn't re- stricted to the dress, blouse, skirt line. Now jackets and short coats are available in miracle materials. One run through the washing ma- chine turns a dingy gray shortie back to its clean fluffy white. These washable coats come mainly in the light pastels of the spring palate and the fabric makes it easy to keep them that way. Years ago, even the most fore- sighted person might very well have scoffed at the idea of wearing something made from coal. But to- day we sit in awe of modern science's accomplishments and eagerly follow the whims of de- signers as they dream up the yearly crop of synthetic wardrobe creations. By SUE RAUNHEIM For the first time in many sea- sons, Paris designers are showing a continuous flowing line from the shoe to hat. Indeed, there are very few two color costumes and even shades of hats are designed to re- late closely to the rest of the cos- tume. 4 For afternoon wear this spring, there are very few unattached scarves or panels. The color of the outfit, the cut and the materials combine, to give the outfit a smooth soft look. To Achieve Effect Parisian designers want their clients to look tall, slim and fem- inine this year and in order to achieve this effect they are offer- ing a one color costume. In this way, lines form a continuous whole, and hats which complement the costume seem to finish the line. line. Most popular fabrics this spring are chiffon (including a new sat- in chiffon) silk crepes, and shan- tung weaves. Color tones which predominate are mostly pale tones such as tea green, oyster white, pale blue and pink. At Christian Dior, apart from this flowing line, he is showing a series of costumes, coats and suits of shantung with wide belts. The same belted line can be seen in a beige crepe suit at Madeleine de Rauch and in a late daybdress at Lanvin of black and brown polkadot silk. Some Belted Most coats to be worn during the day are three quarters or sev- en eighths length, some are belted, others are not. For late day and evening wear, many costumes are made of chiffon or crepe with chiffon or crepe dress-length loose coats worn over them. Besides the Oriental line, a new creation is a 1957 variation on a 1930 theme. It consists of a day length evening dress with either a separate train or with a train SJACK Reversible Water Repellent Assorted Colors and Patterns including Ivy League Stripes and Checks Open Monday .S AM'S S' 122 E.
