Coordinates and
Separates Are !
Gay for Spring r
Separates have long played
an active role in the wardrobes
of women from college girls
to matrons. There's always a
sense of fashion achievement
in choosing imaginative separ
ates that interchange to, give
endless variety, to even the
most modest wardrobe. .. .
These wonderfully wearable
"extras" for. Spring,' 1958, are
more colorful, more eye-catch
ing, and ,more versatile, than
ever! , ; .....-; ,;, , v.,-.
They are designed to give a
definite costume look, even in
the most casual interpretations.
This go-together - effect Is due
in a great part, to the well-
coordinated choice of fabrics.
Although stripes, checks, prints
and plain colors are used ex
tensively, there Is always i
thread of color-planning run'
ning through a group. -
Jackets,' skirts, and blouses
are the favorite wardrobe-
stretchers of the college and
career girl.. Jackets are being
shown in interesting new ver
sions, with the cardigan a lead
ing favorite. The lines are nar
rower, tapered to the hlpline
or cut in boxy silhouettes.
Skirts are generally slimmer,
although pleated styles are im
portant. -7-
Orion - and - wool combina
tions, menswear flannel, and
tweeds are top favorites in
these separates in the tailored
mood. ,
Stoles,, often in reversible
versions, are a big stand-out
in the separates field. They
perform a mix-match function
in several outfits, if selected to
match a skirt or top. Sweaters
matched ' to separates, . often
banded in matching fabric, of
fer an interesting accent to an
ensemble. -' . s,- ;J
Just appearing on the Spring
scene are the separate with a
new-into-Summer air. They are
the fun fashions always look
ed forward to so eagerly. -
Here, skirts go full with
flared lines, good, panels, or
impressed pleats to make them
extra full.
Tops are invariably sleeve
less and team-equally well with
skirts, shorts, or tapered patio
pants. Halters are strong fa
vorites. 1
In this field, cotton soars to
new heights of smartness in its
imaginative interpretations.
Designers are using denim in
a. wealth of new colors and
with distinctive details. Mada
gascar "strawcloth" is an im
portant newcomer, white ging
hams, calicos, cotton taffetas,
chambriys, and printed cottons
of al types are used with new
inspiration.
Go-together separates that
give a one-piece look still shine
brightly in the after-five fash
ion limelight and are even be
ing shown for the Spring bride
and her attendants!
Although farming Is one of
the oldest human occupations,
the teaching of agriculture in
schools is of comparatively re
cent date. .

flouncy frock. -
