PLEATS

are back

Pleated skirts are starred in the first spring dress shows. Breaking away from the pencilstraight skirts of last autumn, pleats give more life and movement to silhouettes. Here's an example; a frock for walking out on early spring days, made in cornflower blue wool crepe.

The skirt was closely knife-pleated all the way round, and about an Inch shorter than you have been wearing them (One designer said skirin had

risen to 17ins. off the ground, almost knee helight, but no far I haven't seen any more than 15ins, off the ground.)

Bodice was quite plain; neck cut out into two stand-up edges, curving down to the waist and lined with an Inner strip of white plque. Long sleever were cut away at the wrist to show a deep inner cuff of more white pique. The inch-arrow belt was shluy vnite leather, and, ce all bells seen so far,

huckled at the back.

The attack will be on your weak spots (we've all come across the eighty-year-old with magnificent hair or teeth), so the im- portant thing is to find out which they are, and give them all the

How to find em? Well, your elderly relatives are a pretty sound guide. One has only to look at a few grandmothers to see how certain weaknesses and strengths are inherent.

So look out for them. If, as a family, you have all got beautiful skins don't worry so much about preserving your com- plexion as you do about, say, your teeth,
