Billowy Skirts Are Returning
At home fashions, designed for TV parties, patio entertaining or simply for lounging about the house, whirl out for spring in color drenched skirts meant to be fluffed out by layers of pretty petticoats beneath.
Adapted from the past season's fashions are billowing quilted skirts. These are presented in cottons and rayons, in gay solid tones and small Provincial type prints.
They are most effective when combined with contrasting bright color black jersey tops, designed in a sleeveless, scoop neck manner or with a turtle neck and long or short sleeves.
Also effective, when teamed with contrasting scoop neck or turtle neck jersey tops, are the whirling skirts that feature a vari-colored patchwork effect print.
Novel in appearance are the new skirts printed to simulate all-over lace embroidery. Often, this type of skirt also has a simulated fringe border that lends a sham apron effect to the skirt.
For dress up at home, and even for parties and other gala occasions away from home, there are full, full skirts of satin or gold accented organdy. These look best when paired with simple tops, or, for a more elaborate outlook, with a crushed cummerbund in the fabric of the organdy trim or the top.
Also on hand for spring at home are street length duster type coats. Newest versions of this popular style offer exciting fashion news when detailed with saucer button asymmetrical closings.
They may be designed of crisp novelty printed fabrics such as a white or pastel ground eloque overprinted with widely spaced gold dots, or a gold printed cotton.
Weaving is one of man's oldest crafts, says the National Geographic society, but man probably made felt cloth before he made any woven fabric.
