SHORT BLOUSE
SWEATERS IN
LACEY WEAVES
We're headed tor a season of In
formality, practicality and simplic
ity of style naturally sweaters are
good. They are also smart, new
looking, and Individual In their 1933
versions. They range all the way
from definite sport types in angoras
and ribbed simulated nand-knits, to
open-work and lacey crochet effects
that are as dressy as a blouse.
Hie new high waistcd skirts hare
Influenced sweater styles In many
ways. For one thing, they're defi
nitely shorter. Often the hlgh-watst-ed
effect is emphasized by carrying
a dark color through the closely fit
ting rib section with the top in a
lighter contrasting color. And since
this tight fit through the center of
the body Is smartest If the top fits
loosely, many a new sweater Is roomy
about the shoulders or adopts a
cowl neckline of puffed sleeves to
achieve that casual, wide-shouldered
look.
Materials are responsible for much
of the Interest In new sweaters. The
most up-to-the-minute Is pure Irish
linen thread almost like a heavy
sewing thread used for very simple
and very smart hand-knitted white
sweater blouses.
The high neckline, so general
throughout the mode, has Invaded
sweater realms too. One type Is a
high, purled neck that stops short
at the base of the throat. If this
seems too severe, a scarf can be add
ed for a softening line. Another
style features a childish turn-down
round collar with tiny silver buttons
proceeding from the top all the way
down the throat.
RIBBED GOODS
IN HIGH FAVOR
Paris (IP) It was the rib, long ago,
that started things, and It Is a rib
today though we admit, a diflerent
kind of a rib that is starting things
anew in the business of being fash
ionable. Ribbon is so definitely a present
style note that when materials are
not ridgey, surface tucks that stand
up and are sometimes stuffed with
padding, are taken on the machine
to enrich the garment and give it a
corduroy effect.

and all white.
Even chiffon takes unto itself an
ever increasing scries of ribs and
' while still as light as a flippant
thought, it has the appearance of
being a vcrv weighty matter,
"SPlAHAST
DRESSES NEW
Paris. (IP) "Speakeasy" dresses
are on the up and up here, which
proves that Parisian couturiers are
very altruistic. They don't need
speakeasy dresses because there are
no speakeasies in France. The same
popular little frocks for this side of
the Atlantic are called "Cocktail
Frock" right out. Just like thatl
Lucile Paray has made an evening
ensemble, consisting of a two piece
dress made of black velveteen for
the skirt and a blouse of white crepe
embroidered in crystals. With it is to
be worn a Paray short dolman cape
of b'.ack velveteen trimmed with
ermine.
Green and white striped taffeta
Is a Mastey Rouff note for spring.
She Is still using puffed sleeves and
a little ruffled arrangement about
the lower portion of the hips that is
charming because it Is entirely free
from any "period" influence. The
'skirt flowing out from these ruffles
falls In crisp folds and stops at least
three Inches above the ankles.
STRIPES TAKE BOW
IN SPRING CHESSES
dauim (i pi wp are all In for a
good spring stripping, and as a re
sult there will be a good deal ol
'tingling with excltmcnt." "But,'
heavens: I can't wear stripes!" we
hear a tall thin woman exclaim. "Ot
course, you can't wear them perpen-:
dlcular." we speak up promptly. 1
'But what's to prevent you from
waring them parrallel?"
And then she brike down and ad
mitted she never even had thought
about that. All her llle she had been
broueht up in "You can't wear
stripes, you're too thin." never stop
ping to consider that a good stripe
can run sideways as well as up and
down.
Stripes In the bias and running
round and 'round Instead o' up and
down, do her as much good as the
wrong way docs harm. Wearing
them the rlsht way. she may Include

there Is no color that must needs

Greater Variety In
Designs Is Offered
With Spring Season
When the Boys' Apparel Buyers' association finished Its
meeting early this year the concensus of opinion favored the
development of more pronounced patterns in boys' clothes.
In accordance with this idea the manufacturers have pro
duced such clothes from fabrics
LILAC, SILVER
EVENING GOWN
Paris (IP) We are going to make
you green with envy now by telling
you about a lace evening dress in
lavender and silver with embroid
ered applications of velvet In deep
violet!
Even the suggestion of green In
the envy goes well In the above
combination, tor it fits Into the
picture as the foliage of lilacs and
lilies and violets.
The foundation ot the lace, which
is a net with a very fine drawn
work effect, is of silver. Small
leaf-shaped patterns are also of
lace but in the lavender shado. As

body, and the length just to the
floor, even all the way around.

that show more pattern than has
ever been displayed before.
While glenurquhart plaids havei
been staging a gradual comeback
with the collegian the use of such
patterns In boys' clothes has been
slow in developing. But to put more
cheer In apparel designs of this
type will be shown to a greater ex
tent than heretofore.
Although less popular man gien-
urquharts there also Is a tendency
to show more ana more ot sneimcru
checks. Variations of these checks
in the form of smaller designs are
reported to have met with greater
favor among merchant and, of
course, are expected to be used
more extensively by boys this sea

change will take place this season.

For youngsters of six to fourteen
years the combination of sweater

years ago, is favored by a great

should be a harmony between the

some of which are half belted, while
others are full belted. As for colors
there is a range that runs from tan
to deep dark tones.
For the Juveniles three types of
suits will be In greatest demand.
