TS —TIRES— SUPERIOR Guaranteed 10,000 Miles ‘There’s a Spring Fashion Which Will Fit Your Personality Iy i I By MARION HALE Have you a personality, aura, or complex? Are you an incarnation of Cleo- patra, a Watteau shepherdess or a | herolne from Godey's Ladies' Book? | Now is the time to assert yourself | with the help of the spring styles. Not one style is good for spring, but dozens of styles are good. Decide on your . own type and choose your models. First on the left is a coat-dress of fine twill with wide sleeves of bro- cade. The skirt of the frock wraps around itself and fastens at one side. The turhed-back collar can he fas- tened high around the chin, The sleeves extend well over the hand. Next is one of the short coats that are almost the only coats to be seen this spring. This one is. cape-like, but carefully retains a wide tight belt around the hips. Elusively Andalusion, The third frock has an clusively| Andalusian audacity—a circular skirt and a wide, tight belt that circles the hips are the simple means to that end. It is sleeveless, since all gowns this season are made either in this style or with sleeves that cover the hand to the finger joints. Next comes the frock whose grand- mother was a belle in 1880—a wide flounce suggests the bustle ‘and falls in ripples to the hem on each side. | The godet silhouette is shown in| the next example—notice the circu- lar panel in front. Egyptian em- | broideries are only a hint of what Tutankhamen will do to fashions in the very near future. | Drapes again on the next dress— one on the blouse, another on the skirt and a new sash shirred in front into the semblance of a buckle. Basque Dress Again, | Below .is the basque dress made new again by a wide upstanding col- lar and two huge bows at the back of the very low waistline. The most popular spring suit is‘ shown on the seated figure«-a bolero! coat with an underjacket of another fabric that has long sleeves and a tight hiplength belt. Notice the fashionable flare to the collar. Materials are as new as slylt‘s.l Hundreds of printed designs are shown in all manner of silk of cot- Sporting Goods the popularity of Paisley and Per- sian designs continues undiminished. Such few materials as are not printed are shown in shades of green and golden brown with new Egyp- tian reds and yellows just appearing. Flat crepes, canton crepes and novelty crepes are the most fashion- able silks.
