Dancing preceded and followed the show which was com. mentated by Ye Society Editor. The promenade of styles was from the Appel collection, and the store was not only cooperative in provid- ing the elothes but had every pre-show arrangement ready with brisk efficiency. All-jewelry was made by Coro. The stunning hair dressing was by Donald’s. The models came out in play- time outfits to open the show. Gloria Muniz and Betty Cooper wore beach sets of “hobo” design, the pattern of red and blue car- ried out by big bandanas and béach Kats. Betty carried a little cane with a beachbag attached . . . for beach accessories, or beating off wolf: beachcombers.

Probably the trickiest dress in the show was expertly modeled by Mickey Renna. The jacket is criss- crossed in two pieces so that either one side or both sides can be re- moved. With the jacket on, it’s for shopping or cool days; with the one shoulder drape, it’s for after- noon, and to round out the round- the-clock idea, both sides off makes the gown one suitable for dancing or cocktails, Easter special done in a roman- tic manner with floating bouffant skirt over pink underskirt featured a design of roses and lace nose- gays in crossstitch on the trans parent overskirt- The belt was in moss green.
