And with the first spring-like days isn't that just how you feel about your old cloth es? Don't you long for something new nnd different? Waists and Skirts If you haven't had an opr portunity to see any of the new Spring numbers you are perhaps wondering what is considered the correct . pln3e for wait lines and skirt lengths. Of course, evening dresses are definitely long. The favorite street length is just past the curve of the calf of the wearer. Sports clothes are worn a trifle shorter. And where is the waistline! Exactly at the waistline, if you are youthful and slender. It is smart to wear your belt just where it looks the best on you individually. At Adriennc's you'll find new Spring dresses that have been selected to fit a variety of forms and figures ! Suits and Coats It's going to be a glorious feeling to shed- heavy clothes on the first warm days and feel young nnd slim in one of our .smart suits. The suit of 1931 of ten means a dress with a jacket, for this season they seem smarter than the jacket, blouse and skirt costume! You'll just love some of our new ar rivals. As to coats, the trend is towards sports models with novel fea tures including scarfs and revere effects. Many mod els are fitted nnd molded at the waist and sleeve treatments are interest ing. One of the important fabri.-s is "Chtmg.i," a lovely grainy fabric. Favored Colors You'll no doubt want to become familiar with some of the Spring colors that we arc featuring. There's Lime Yellow, Star (iold, Corail, Tropic Sun, Sea Sand, Larkspur blue, ffuardsman blue, Yacht blue, Japanese red, Check er green. Pistachio, and Isle green. We have doz ens of perfectly beautiful l'l'ints in these shades. Adrienne's
