Brilliant Afternoon EXPERT STUDIES
Maria Krum
By PRUNELLA WOOD
HAT incredibly tough and resilient thin taffeta called noon frock, one of a demure and colourful series which has the Marin Krum imprint this season. The frock floats like chiffon, keeps a crisp silhouette as only taffeta can, and in this model, lends itself to the late afternoon gain, such as wedding or debutante tea, with a garden hat, and will do as well for the roof dinner on the Sunday luncheon in the country.
The colours in this particular taffeta combine fuchsia, bottle green and bright yellow in an overplaid for yellow chartreuse. The checks are so tiny that the effect at a distance is of a rosy sulphur tone. The guimpe la white mousseline de soie.
