The New Spring
Dresses Show Details
Delightfully New
With Prices Ranging From $1U0 to $40JOO
This season, when conservation of woolen fabrics is requested, dresses of wool are
exceedingly simple and chic. Those of silk show a more lavish use of materials,
though conforming to the narrow lines of Spring. Plain tans, blues and grays
vie with prettily figured effects for popularity. Because the designs are drawn
from no particular period the styles are the most diversified we have had for
some time, thus the individuality which every woman desires in her apparel
becomes a prominent feature of Spring modes.
Our intimate knowledge of the requirements of women
in this community is splendidly portrayed in the charm
ing Dresses assembled for Easter-time choosers.
We welcome your immediate inspection. All fashionable materials are repre
sented Taffetas, Plaid Silks, Stripe Silks and Jvovelties Georgettes, Crepe de
