Jean Hart's Diary April 23 Have you seen the beautiful new dresses the fruit trees of the valley are wearing? Neat crisp cottons if I ever saw one. I'll admit the cherry trees might be wearing or gandy ... or perhaps that new nylon that is as fresh as a spring salad. Our cottons are just as re freshing and delightful. It makes you feel gay just to look at them. A watermelon nylon with contrasting touches of soft grey. Starchy voiles with a permanent fin ish so that they stay perky no matter what the humid ity. Linen suits for summer traveling and straight easy to iron dresses of linen and pongee. Sun dresses with jackets to completely dis guise their double purpose. And speaking of doubling shortie coats are wonderful to wear with cottons for the cooler evenings all summer . . . and (deal as a party coat all year . . . especially if you choose a soft pastel color. Yes ... in a Jean Hart cot ton . . . you'll blossom out yourself.
