Smooth Fabrics Vary In Mood
New fabrics take on moods as exciting and varied as the new season itself.
Some have faces rugged and fresh as saplings with tiny green leaves. Others are smooth and silky as a just-cropped lawn after a rainstorm. Some have as many outlooks as there are spring flowers. And others come in from across the sea with an air as refreshing as the sound of the wind's first caress of leaf-dressed trees.
Suit and coat fabrics have nubber, slubber, weaves inviting the contrast of smooth silks and crisp taffetas. There are new soft jerseys with novel open work patterns and boucles that are wondrous to the touch as they are to the look. The warm hued colors of rich fleeces and smooth suedes make scintillating fashion news too.
Supple, thick, stiff or thin, it's silk and the silken-look that leads the way for dresses this season. Silk tafetas, silk organdes, luxurious pure silk prints, crepey silks 'all are included in the world of silk new dresses live in.
And right along with this luxurious fabric are complementary touches of velvet, self-color and contrasting braid and brain fringe.

It's Easy To Blend Hose With Clothes
Selecting a complete hosiery wardrobe simultaneously with your new spring fashions is one way to be sure of dramatizing the warm, vibrant colors of your ensembles as well as insuring a maximum of flattery to your legs.
This season, hosiery colors are more carefully keyed than ever to newest fashion shades. So, whether your wardrobe is in the tan to deep brown or cornflower blue to navy range, stocking shades are available that complement your every ensemble from early afternoon tailored suits to late evening short-length formalms.
For instance, you'll want to blend a natural leg tone with toasty orange daytime costumes. A soft beige tieup will combine with informal lighter blues and navies. Neutral powder tones will go best with glamorous pastel tinted organizes and dressy sheers. And navy shades offer striking accent to ankle-revealing evening frocks.
No Squint, No Spots Just Fun In The Sun
Sun fun minus the squint, plus definite fashion appeal is promised for ultra violet devotees this spring and summer.
Sun glass manufacturers have come up with several lens refinements and new frame designs.
A pair of glasses currently available allows the wearer to control brightness by rotating the lenses with a small metal tab. Another plastic framed pair curves uniquely to fit the brow, has built-in visors for extra protection and fashion interest.
