Five New Fashions

Under southern sun, spring styles burst into bloom, revealing lines

· and colors that will be seen when ̈ warmer weather comes to the north

TEW styles, like flower, bloom in the spring.

Like the flowers, there, new styles often. are a cross between several established varieties. The result brings new colors, new lines. Some of the new styles should be listed as a guide to chic for the woman who selects from southern resort clothes her wardrobe for spring. It is a good idea to do this. One often gets marvelous bargains. But to do so successfully, one must know what it to be wom.

This

First, the jacket suit is all-important. suit may have a finger-tip coat or it may have a bolero. The bolero suit promises to be one of spring's nice gifts. For it is a stunning style atop a molded hipline and lender waist. It is dstyle for youth and for those fortunate women who cherish the spirit of slenderness beyond the 30's.

SECOND, the cape ensemble is now and likely

to be a most popular outfit: The frock with this ensemble is likely to be figured and the cape plain, lined with the fingured fabric. For a cape ensemble, there must be a flaring skirt or the line is wrong. The low flounced frock is an ex cellent choice, with circular flounce or pleated

one.

Third, cutaway effects and cutaway realities are new, and growing in importance.

The spring coat with cutaway front, the cutaway jacket, the frock with its low skirt pleats posed in cutaway fashion, these are authentic styles for spring.

FOURTH, big hate with novelty trim to com plement a single outfit are likely to be an cellent sports wear and promise a run on bigger hate this summer.

More than that, they argue with conviction for brims. They shade the eyes, cast shadows of chic acrou pretty faces, and in their combination of colors are vastly flattering to bothï slender faces' and plump faces.

Fifth, costumes entirely new appear on the horizon, especially for leiture hours. First and foremost comps the studio gown. Since many people have studios instead of boudoirs, there new costumes that are partly pajamas, partly frocks, are most suitable. Paris advances them as the coming style for intimate at-home wear.

I. TURQUOISE blue is one of the new spring colors, especially good for a dressy "linle frock."

Philippe and Gaston make a smart after- noon "Title frock" of turquoise blue satin clothi which sponsors the cutaway effect for its low skirt flounces.

There is intricate work on this frock. Aliové the circular flounces there is a two-inch banding There are of hand-tucks, vertically made. widely-paced vertical hand tucks under the belt on both sides, giving a slight fullness to the skirt. There is a little of this tucking running up the sleeve with a circular cuff of very unusual cat extending down from it. The banding from the flounces runs right up the front and clear around the neckline, with a little bias collar of the goods finishing it and tying in a little bow in front."

II. A SILK it that promises great popular.

ity among the young and jaunty is the bolero suit of necktie silk, with the 'georgette, tuck-in Eloua

Henri Bendel makes one of red and white necktic checked silk with the skirt having a yoke of bands and with box pleats stitched below this yoke, to flare below, the hips,

The little bolero is handed around its lower edge and the sleeves have the same decoration. for their cuffs, The tuck-in blouse of white georgette has fine groups of hand-tucks running horizontally around its bodice and its collar and jabot finished with a Ene hand-rolled edge in a Lancy stitch

III. LOUISEBOULANGER has created a sumptuous studio gown of cire mousse- line with 4 silver lame paltem over yellow cire. The trousers of the studio gown are cul very full and are made of gorgeous yellow cire mousseline with a gold brocaded pattern in it of fine leaf design. The long tunic of silver pat- terned lame worn over the trousers really makes this is a lounging gown with trousers. It is a mod crnized "rest gown," retaining the function but renouncing the two features that characterized the former "rabe de maison," foaming lace effects and trails of chiffon..

The bodice portion is full and soft and the sleeves wide and comfortable. One of the sweet- est touches is the little rear collar that alanda up in the back. The tunic fastens at the front with a graceful little buckle.

IV. STRAW hats for spring insist on brims. For southern, resort wear, Jean Patou fashioned wide brimmed straws that prom- ise wear this spring and summer. One, of natural bakou, is trimmed with scalloped band- ings of red oilcloth, most effectively. It was de signed to top a brilliant red jersey de laine frock with lingerie collar of off-white.

Hate have conformed to a uniform style dur- ing the winter, every woman's head resembling that of her sister's both in size, shape and color. Blonds and brunets alike have favored the som. ber browns and black which undoubtedly have. added chic to their costumes.

V

BLACK and bright green is one of the coming color combinations for pting. The green must be a vivid one to 'contrast just right with the black.

Poiret makes an early spring ensemble of. printed green and black, with two shades of green and a touch of beige in the figure of the print, against the black The frock has the new low skirt flounce and a diagonal closing to the front. This and the neckline are outlined in the two shades of green and black.

The sleeve of the frock has a novel feature. . From the elbow to the high cuff line, a panel of pleated material is inserted which gives the im pression of a puff, yet is pleated so firmly as to be really a straight line sleeve.

The cape of this ensemble is of black cloth, lined with the print. The darkest green fash- ions the little Dutch cap turban which tops it.

II. Red check necktio cloth is used by Honri Bondel for this bolero Jacket, worn overva whito

georgette tuck-in, blouse which gives the creation, a youthful appearance.

Ill. This studio gown by Louiseboulanger is given sweeping lines by the full-cut trousers and the softly-draped tunic

of oire moussalins, with a silver lame pattern,

The advent of wider-brimmed hate is heralded in this Joan Patou model to go with a red jersey de falne drest, . -- This chapeau is of natural bakou trimmed in red bil-cloth;
