BRIDGE AUTHORITY BRIDGE SUFFER To give the smart fillip to your appearance you really should wear a touch of crochet somewhere about your costume, now that crochet has grown to be one of the most out standing words in the present-day fashion vocabulary. Why not cro chet a beret as pictured above, the original of which was shown in an all-crochet fashion show recently sponsored by the National Needle craft bureau? For the smart beret here shown, Wanda Kofler, a designer noted for her artistry and skill in crochet, uses two shades of pink mercerized cot ton. Worn with a cerise colored crepe afternoon dress, it makes a smart ensemble for a luncheon or . bridge engagement. Plastic Bags Surprise and delight await those who first see the new handbags made of woven plastic thread. With the possible shortage of other materials plastics are definitely "in.” As a compromise, here is an eve ning dress that looks festive but not too formal. It is a new type of frock—the ballerina dress, which has recently made its appearance in the fashion picture. As its name implies, this new frock is full-skirted and ankle length. It really is a forerunner of the short-length evening dress. Young, pretty and so new is this dainty dress. The prettiest of ma terials go into its making. Lovely prints yield beautifully to the bal lerina silhouette. Perhaps most charming of all are the ballerina j dresses made of lace. The bodices that top the ballerina skirts are pur posely styled with the utmost sim plicity, have short sleeves, fit snug ly and add to their lure with deep cut square or heart-shaped neck lines. A most significant sidelight on the ballerina vogue is that the junior and teen-age girls are so fascinat ed with the idea they are adopting the fashion for daytime dresses of gay chintz and crisp cottons.
