Skirtless swim suite are in high favour, particularly those little notions that feature baby pants and brassfera tops. The dress. maker varieties include, tunic styles and many are made of taffeta,

Speaking of fabrics, novelty knits are emphasized and so are silk bathing suits and those of printed, crinkled rubber. You can get trunks and then vary the tops to suit your mood. One day you might *liko a regular brassiers top and, the next afternoon, gay bandana, tucked into the front of the trunks and fed, halter fashion, about your neck,

Trunks remind us of the vague for shorts. If your figure will permit, by all means buy shorts. These come in flannel with pleats on the sides and in rough linen, cottons and novelty woollene.

Shorta and shirts with matching "skirts" promise to be important this summer. But if you can't picture.yourself in shorts, look at the beach pyjamas in flamboyant Mexican colours. Some have boleros, brilliant sashes, fringed pyjamas and very often, matching hats that are trun

copies of a Mexican's sombrero.“``--

One-piece pyjama costumes aren't nearly as amusing as slacks and separate shirts ar blouses. Look for slacks with matching double-breasted coats. These have charming nautical air about them.

Incidentally, nautical motite decorate some of the smartest swim suits, shorts and beach pyjamas. Look for anchors on tho pockets and red, white and blue stripes on

the sloaves.
