Wrinkle Resistant Clothes,
Cottons Popular for Packing :
By JEHTME ENGLISH I
It is a joy this year to assemble a wardrobe for summer vaca
tions, as never before have clothes been so attractive, colorful and
nnrtinl Cottons definitely lead the Darade for daytime as well as
evening wear. There are cotton suits for the city, dresses of all de
sign for sight-seeing, traveling oy car, cottons xor cruises or uw
beach and dressier cottons for dinner and dancing.
Many new synthetic fabrics are
on the market that are wrinkle
resistant, perfect for suitcase
packing. Pleated skirts are more
popular, than ever due to per
manent pleating.
If one's vacation is to the big
city, such as New York or San
Francisco, wardrobes will vary
slizhtly. It is wise to take -dark
suits (definitely no white shoes)
for vacationing in the city. Black,
brown and navy blue cottons are
desirable for the warmer cities
and for San Francisco wool suits
may be worn year round. Dressy
cottons, taffetas and silk suits
may be worn in the evening for
dinner, dancing or the theatre.
It is well to remember that a
dark, simple ensembles is always
smart for the city, regardless of
the season.'
Playclothes Attractive
For the seashore, lake resorts
and mountains there is a wide se
lection of play clothes to choose
from. Denims have come into
popularity this year, with sail
cloth, terry cloth, the tradition
al cottons, gabardines and cor
duroy also available in all colors
of the rainbow. For the beach
one should have a pair of shorts,
bra, peddle pushers, a jacket and
cap. A sweater and skirt with cot
ton blouses for changes are also
a must for the beach and moun
tains. The same attire is also
practical for a motor trip to the
parks or a trip traveling along
the coast or about the state view
ing the scenic spots.
Knit dresses and suits are an
other popular wardrobe number
for vacationing. They may be
worn at night for dinner, where
formal dress is not required.
Knits are grand for the moun
tains and beach in the evening
when it is a little cooler. Knits
are perfect for traveling by car,
tram or plane, where one roust
ait for hours at a time. They do
not wrinkle and are so easy to
pack, just roll right up in the
side of the suitcase They take
very little room andr shake right
out as soon as taken out of the
case.
Strapless Cottons
So smart this year for resort
wear, "Where it is warm, are the
halter and strapless cottons with
little boleros, spencers and jack
ets. Some sheath style cottons
are worn with little matchbox
jackets. Separates are also a fa
vorite with many. Gay, colorful
cotton blouses worn with full
skirted print or plain skirts and
accessorized with flowers, wide
belts and jewelry.
Scarves, capes and stoles also
play a major role in the fashion
picture for summer vacationing.
Scarves add a dash of color to an
outfit or dress it up for dinner
in the evening. Capes and stoles
add smartness to an ensemble
and at the same time are that
much needed extra bit of warmth
when the evening becomes
cooler.
A top fashion this summer and
a must in a vacation wardrobe is
the summer sweater, so smart
and pretty. Air conditioning and
night air brought about the
sweater's summer era. Nothing
has a newer elegance than a pas
tel cardigan worn as an evening
wrap for summer evenings on
the patio, at a dance, riding or
jacketing the bare shoulder of a
For 1953 there are pillbox
sweaters, halter sweaters, - blazer
sweaters, city sweaters beach
sweaters and even bathing swea
ters. Cardigans are lined to
match cottons, boleros are fash
ioned with borders of ribbon and
linen. Then there is the off-
shoulder style sweater, bare, but
not quite bare to wear with full
skirts. Sweaters are ribbon trim
med and adorned with jewels.
Summer suits are always an
important part of the vacation
wardrobe. Cotton suits are as
smart today as the wool ones.
They are beautifully tailored and
chic and come in a variety of col
ors, as well as being non-crush-able.
For traveling by any other
conveyance than car a cotton
suit is a must
If one is planning a trip to the
Islands cottons for daytime and
evening wear with a variety of
play and sun clothes for the
beach are the essentials.' It is
wise to take along a tweed suit
and heavy topcoat if planning
vacation at the beach or moun
tains, because there are cool,
foggy days and it does rain oc
casionally in the summer.
For the vacationist, who plans
occasional weekends away dur
ing the summer months or a va
cation right in his own backyard
and patio, there are numerous
wardrobe suggestions. You. can
go and come anywhere in cot
tons and linens (which are now
non-crushable), with sweaters
and a short coat, possibly a wool
jersey or tweea suit u its a
weekend in the country. For the
patio, garden or pool cotton
prints, sundresses, separates,
shorts and swim suits are desir
able. Accessories Important
Accessories play an important
role in the summer wardrobe.
Straw baskets for purses grow to
suitcase size and are smarter
than ever with summer outfits.
The newest packable hat is a
cotton lace or a fruit bandeau
and for jewelry the perennial
dependables are gold and white.
Linen pumps, dyed to match the
outfit, always a smart accessory
as well as pretty scarves and
stoles. So many of the stoles mat
ching the dress or lined with the
material of the dress.
Summer cottons are as smart
as they are fresh daily, i Their
care is .a minimum. No preserva
tives of any kind are used with
the exception of soap and wa
ter. For the majority they are
hand washable and drip dry with
self-ironing. Rayon and nylon
cluster pleats are permanent
Summer cottons give no hint of
their low cost on the smartly
dressed girls and women in town.
