TAYLOR COMPANY 1950 Spring Bride .. Will Wear Organdy, Say Fashion Experts New York What will the 1950 spring bride wear? Pale pink organdy with "Little Women" look if she's the prototype of The Bride s maga zine's cover for early spring, pre viewed in a fashion show at the fifteenth bridal business clinic. This annual "school" produced by Brides House, Inc., rated at tendance by representatives of 500 leading department and spec ialty stores over the country. Other fashion news that bridal consultants, bridal buyers, and other store executives found at their yearly session of classes was the monochromatic weaaing party colors of one family in different tones, grading from beige and yellow, to burn straw. Long satin "domino" coats to cover wedding dress glamour fit tingly can be used for dramatic evening coats later. Bridesmaids who can change their accessories and become belles of the ball at parties show ed the trend to real party dresses that The Bride's magazine sug gests to the practical members of today's wedding party. An outdoor wedding goes "back to nature" with flowers, birds, and bees featured in the wedding dress, the bridesmaids' accessories, and the headdresses. For a dramatic finale a whole wedding party dressed in palest blush keynoted today's fashion that a wedding can be "in the pink" if the bride feels she would like to break away from traditional white. "Planned perfection" for a successful wedding day is stress ed. The plan for 1950's bride re flects fashion's neat head, the hand-spun waist, skirts belled out with numerous crinolines to fill the aisle. Wedding hats re placing floral hcaddreses gives new importance to the head and often show the roundness of it in cloche wedding hats. Flowers look new, too, in ar rangements suggestive of old French flower prints. Bouquets in carefully-planned, delightfully carelessly collected confusion of colors as if they were flowers just picked from the garden. This looseness of arrangement and variation of color contrasts with the usual formal look of stiffly balanced bouquets in blank one color arrangements. The bride's mother has a new look, too, in navy blue. Navy looks refreshing after the mon otony of faded pastels, and is uni versally becoming, especially to mature figures. While black for the mother of the bride is proper in many foreign countries, it is not acceptable in ours. Navy has all the chic of black and stays I within propriety.
