COMING TO HIM, THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, GHT TOTING ALWAY FRCIS, MOVIES AND MOVIE PEOPLE BY MOLLIE MERRICK. HOLLYWOOD, April 19 (N.ANA).— The sartorial orgy that is Easter reaches its height in Hollywood. Here fashions are made to set off perfect beauty, and the most daring extreme of the modiste’s dream becomes the casual. No hostess considers a party & success if she doesn't wear a gown which will give her guests something to think about, her rivals something to worry them, and her friends something to rave over. The colony is equally divided as to| Easter celebration. The Malibu Beach group, comfortably sequestered 40 miles; from the studio and beyond the reach | of the disturbing telephone, is planning a pajama show which will be unprece- | dented. Helen Twelvetrees is the colony's most | enthusiastic pajama _exponent. Her collection comprises pajamas to suit | every possible occasion, but for Easter morning she has chosen white chiffon | taffeta, cut with a Spanish flare in the trousers and a dash of scarlet in the| broad girdle which shows beneath the knee-length coat. Bessie Love would be the conventional little girl who attends Easter services, then joins the show parade. Her. suit of navy blue with a flaring peplum line is distinguished and daring merely by reason of cut. Gardenias will give the smart white note to the costume, and the clese-fitting hat with a slight flare at the sides is of fine white ballibuntl straw. Dolores Del Rio is another disciple of the restrained Spring version of the mode—black Shantung over a canary- yellow silk pique vest. The skirt, cut close to the figure, flares suddenly below the knees. This is reminiscent of the Spanish type frock, and is admirably suited to her. The hip-length jacket shows the waist line, and is topped off with a tiny cape. A black hat is cleverly modeled to | suggest the matador’s headgear. The! Del Rio is still the outstanding Spanish | type in Hollywood. Her costumes vary | from the exotic and dazzling gold and | purple of her evening effects to an al- most somber touch in her morning| clothes. | Recently she wore an iron-gray mix- | ture tailleur, with a prim, severe hat of | | gray felt, black-banded. A woman of | exceptional beauty may do this and | merely emphasize the color and curves of her exquisite charm. Norma Shearer, Hollywood's outstand- ing devotee of the sports mode, is con- centrating on a gown for the Easter dinner party. It is to be of sky-blue satin, amaz- ingly cut ahd draped to accent this slim patrician beauty. With it the Shearer will wear a necklace and huge earrings of filligree silver and crystal. Her slippers, of a darker shade of | satin, are unadorned. Norma Shearer is an outstanding example of the dis- tinguished in all the moods and tenses of the fashion day. | __Easter hostesses will include Marian | Nixon and Marilyn Miller. Marian Nixon is reveling in the chance for| femininity which this season’s fashions | offer—a gown of flesh-pink chiffon with | | little puff sleeves and a shirred bodice reminiscent of the demure frocks David ‘v:b;-;'k Griffith popularized for Lillian sh. Marilyn Miller’s flowered chiffon frock has a tiny bertha outlining slim shoul- |ders, and a whole shoal of wee ruffies on the skirt just below the hip line. ‘This frock hides the heels of her gay| slippers and reveals tantalizing glimpses | of the famous dancing feet. Every house in Hollywood conceals a sartorial creation, all ready and waiting. ‘These are just a few of the outstanding examples. (Copyright, 1930.)
