PARIS

#

Paris this year has given us a spring filled with electricity. If cannot just be the early good wea- ther, it may be the Exhibition, or it may be a reflection of the Coro- nation preparations. Whatever. It ts. It has undoubtedly given us a season of exhilarating fashions. ...Take. for instance, the new spring suit idea seen at Molyneux. Little sports suits in delicious soft pastel wools, hand-woven specially for the purpose, with the most en- trancing belts made of gold or silver paillettes.

For afternoon wear, perhaps

of one

the most attractive fashion is that of black wool lace, with "a jaunty spring trim of co- loured linen or white plque..

Among Helm's new dresses there are several of these. One, in par- ticular, in black wool lace, with its collar and slightly fluted basque edged with white pique, and an- other noticed at the George V. at cocktal-time, was in the same black lace with not only the collar' and basque but also siz barrel cask bands on the skirt of a sharp pale blue linen,

Among other coats to be noted specially are the nipped waistline with a very full skirt-in most cases the coat is trimmed lavishly with fur applied to the shoulder line, and in some cases, to part of the hem.

NEW YORK ···

One of those spring days for which New York is tamous brought à veritable spring fashion parade into the streets around town, the restaurants and the bars.

A pretty blonde at luncheon u the Ambassador wore a cape of silver fox skins over a dress of navy blue twill.

The sleeves were short, the neck cut high at the throat and the pointed, yoke back and front ended ia French seams which didn't quite meet and through which оде glimpsed a line of printed silk in emerald green, royal blue and black. A wide, loop-ended sash of the print encircled the waist, and. a navy-blue ribbon beret, shoes and handbag of navy kid, com- pleted the outfit.

Sharon Lynne, is seen here wearing a pale, evening gown, the simplicity of which is truly classic.
