WEDNESDAY, MARCH 26, 1930 THE CAPITAL JOURNAL. SALEM. OREGON PAGE NINE LONG DRESSES CALL FOR SHOES OF NARROW TOE tV rCV BY GUETCHEV THOMSON "Girls will be girls" after sev eral seasons of apelng boys. More than thatthey will be ladies for even the young daughters of tMay are going to be sophisticated this spring more so than ever before. Tiny girls from siae six to fourteen want to dress exactly like their mothers and the other grown -up3; so their little frocks are being de signed with higher waistlines, with elmhily flared skirts (all with even hemlines, of course) indeed, with tendencies toward the molded sil houette. rQfte of the outstanding fashions for little Kills seems to be the jack et dress adorably chic with abbre viated jacket and pleated skirt often no more than six Inches long a blouse of white with frilled collar. A large number of prints will be III worn; prints that are youthful, yet exemplifying that bit of sophistica tion that the younger generation dares, with much success to acquire. Plain colors also promise to be im portant, including new shades in blue, green, biege, red, and yellow. Long and short sleeves both are going to be good,, but in the ma jority of cases the younger girls will go sleeveless in the modern fashion. Sometimes attractive little cap sleeves will be seen, or little capes that come down just over the shoulder. There are dresses In violes. print ed dimity (both small and large figures), permanent finished organ dies, striped batiste, hankerchlef linen in plain and printed designs, and striped and figured silk and all are smart for the tiny tots. Coats for tots endorse solid col- CORRECT 'frrtkcNEWSILHOUETTb BY GRETCHEV THOMSON Nineteen thirty silks and cottons are presenting smart new designs created especially for the longer sil houette, with pattern and spacing arranged in proportion to give the most flattering effect to the 1930 figure. For afternoon and evening they are printed In flowing patterns and soft tones which the new femin inity demands for daytime they display smaller patterns usually with black or dark backgrounds and bril liantly colored designs. In both tvpes striking new effects are achieved by the combination of print with plain color the dress of print having bands, bows, cuffs and godets of plain color to match the predominating tone of the print. A whole new group of prints is reserved for beach costumes bril liant in color and striking in design. : ."O'clty sports weaves made entirely or partly of silk are coming back into fashion and will be important in the sports mode, while stripes re seen in every manner from the shirtwaist frock to the Jacket en semble, with stripes running up or down or diagonally. Some of the most striking effects are accomp llshcd. Even in lersev the stripe Is reco3' nized, more subtly introduced in self-color in diagonal effects that have been the result of the favor FAEfiiC WEAVE FCR HOSIERY NEW IDEA (Copyright. 1930. by Style Sources) Mew York (IP) Coincident with tho surinz openings, Schlaparelll offered colored hosiery the tones of course matching the costume with which they were worn. Going this Idea one better, is the introduction of colored hosiery In faric weaves. Instead of plain. Taking one consideration with another It is evident that stockings are undergoing a decided change not only in tone but in construction. One assumes that this effort has been put forth to discourage toe practice of omitting stockings. Gay socks are of course a sports factor and are reported as being chosen with the chic but daring shorts In which women now appear on the courts. The tendency to match gloves to the costume with which.tney are worn is another new development worth watching. While some kids appear, the scales dip decidedly In lavor of suedes in all lengths from 4 to 6 button and in pull-on moo. els. For evening, white, all white and delicat Dinky beige suede are sug gested as the newest notes but the habit of wearing gloves for evening has not become general either here or In Paris. The conservative ele ment and some of the ultra younger set wear them however. PLEATS RETURN FOR TRIUMPHAL ENTRY Copyright, 1930. by Styles Sources New York, (IP) One proof that straight skirts are altogether out ol the present consciousness is that, wh?n the moment arises to intro duce some change from fares that hve been the chief influence in skirt trvles. the alternative is an other method of producing fullness in skirts The moment seems to be right now. and the substitution 01 lered it pleats. The interest in pleats Li In a way unexpected, even though houses that have always been partial to plenta made them conspicuous in their southern resort collections. The majority of style offerings, however, were in flared style. The fact that pleated skirts have been observed at Palm Beach in appreciable numbers is one of the interesting rewards of a survey of fashions there. Slmulataneously with that observation came the ear liest reports from the Parts oprn Inrn also showuu an attitud- to footer pleats. Paris. tJf Three-quarters and elbow-lenath coat and jacket sleev . rs for sprint and summer have brought fuller and more elaborate lower sleeves for dresses and accorded the moussa cloth of sim ilar type. The feminine and romantic trend in dress has inspired the revival of embroidered batiste. This crisp cot ton is sponsored in allover eyelet effects of allover florals or many prefer the conventional patterns of leaves and dots, while others are favored in solid but delicately done embroidery. It is identified not only with the more formal mode but dressy silk suit. Cotton meshes promise to develop into an important cotton fashion and are enjoying popularity in both the weave simulating the knitted and the lisle version. Both types are much featured in blouses which in many instances are made more feminine by pulled sleeves, ine woven mesh has already made a name for itself in tailored suits and is approved in such dark colors as black and red brown and to some extent in navy. In the tailored suits and sports coats, tweeds win as the leading fabric heavy weaves combining multicolored effects with white are favored for coats while sheer, loose ly woven tweeds and lacy weaves interpret suits, covert appears re peatedly in suits and coats while wool crepes in pastel and high shades, heavier than dress crepes, are seen in both dressy suits and coats. Suede-like fabrics and solid color basket weaves are first in fa-si lion for the more formal types where fur trimming: Is sanctioned. ors In bright tones, of which the red range is'outstanding. This in cludes the brick shades, and rosy peach. Rough-surfaced tweeds, sometimes in rubbed effects, are favored. Many of these coats are trimmed wit,h touches of handwork. A recurrent treatment Is bands of pintuckinsr. arranged in lattice ef fect, and set around the neckline and down the front, outlining the pockets or bordering the sleeves, Other models endorse delicate cut out motifs of contrasting colors. Coats for older girls use colorful tweeds, frequently in two-color com binations, while some models are trimmed with encrusted motifs in one of the ground colors. There is an interesting group of imported wool fabrics, featuring tweed and basket weaves, which advocate color ful modernistic motifs in Jaequard treatments. Scarf collars are used on some of the models. Hats for both tots and older girls match the coat In color or fabric, or In both. The straw hats usually confine their similarity to the color. with fabric hats are either entirely of the coat fabric, or trimmed with it. Lacy straws are emphasized, in poke styles, and in models with small brims folded back off the face. Hats for girls also reveal the face. in the manner of the models for women, but more simplv styled. "Long dresses call for a longer vamp and narrower toe in shoes," said E. W. Acklln, manager of the Foot-Health Shoe company, which is a "radical departure from the for mer styles of the past few years.." Acklin is displaying ties and plain pumps, which are regarded by his company's style experts as extreme ly good this year. Srt oxfords are piain, as are all of the better grade shoes sold in his shop. Dress shoes have a 2 4 inch heel, and the shoes for tailored and sports wear have either military or Cuban heels. Sun tans and light bleges are the leading shades emphasized in the new shoes, with satin or kid slip pers dyed to harmonize the gowns for evening wear, according to Mr. Acklin. OLD-STYLE SILK REPS RETURN FOR EVENING Paris M") Corded silk Tens of changeable colorings is a new old fashion revived by a dress house which has made ball gowns for three generations. Ruby red and fuchsia purple are developed with matching Jewelry and wraps for the modcrng grand: toillete of reps. The dresses are made with ground length skirts moulded to the hips and then flared la wide impressed pleats. OVERSIZE HANKIES Palm Beach. Fla. (av-After being neglected for years In favor of vivid hues, the vague in colors Is vogue at Palm Beach. Angel blue, pastel pink and pale lavender are prominent. What Paris is Wearing By K. D'ORSAV PARIS Smartly dressed women of Paris aro fond of turninr their backs to admirers these day for the simple reason that their backs are now decorated with their most handsome Jewela Evening clothes that bear tho stamp of approval from rue d la Palx, all show their hacks adorned with some kind of gemmed ornament. A favorite back Jewel at the moment, ts the clip brooch. It is worn at the base of the back do- cone tage, to mark the point of deep V. This type of pin fits In particularly well with many of the new evening gowns, which hare small gathers and plaits pulled to gether at the center-back of the waistline, giving th effect that the buckle holds tho neckline down to the belt. Paris Jewelers are making many of these clips in the forms of crests, simulating the diagonal lines and quartering of well-known crests of royal Trench families. One of these is shown In tho sketch.
