all the freshness & charm of Spring is in these lovely new Viyella fabrics.

Viyella

As the eye falls on the rich profusion of delicate todes and delightful colour harmonies, as the fingers linger in fascination over their seductive softness and beauty of texture, these new season Viyella fabrics make an appeal not to be resisted.

A short-sleeved dress may be given stature by means of a short- sleeved jacket, a double-sleeved effect thus being obtained. Many little bolero jackets are edged with a frill, and this decorates the dress, of which the boler looks an in- tegral part.

Thus a thin, white, sleeveless dress may have a cardigan of the same material which has "a small epaulet instead of a,sleeve.
