Fashion Trends Told for Spring United Press International European ready - to - wear manufacturers have set some! fashion rules for women who can't afford to shop at Dior's. The silhouette will be slightly elongated. Skirt lengths will be 17 inches from the ground. The bustline will be fuller, and the waistline tighter. Tailored dresses will have simple, straight jackets and tight skirts; evening dresses will be short. The pre-teen group can have an at-home wardrobe just like Mom's. Slim pants in corduroy, velveteen, and cot ton knit come in a variety of colors and lengths and are teamed with sissy cotton blouses and pixie-style over blouses. Newest idea for the "Amer ican way of life" - the bi skirt. It's ha'f skirt, half trouser. A side-button wrap-around skirt forms a trouser leg on one side only. The skirt conceals the trouser (unless the wearer takes a deep stride) and is cut to cover the knees when the wearer sits. The originator, Evelyn Daw son, designer for Suzy Perette. plans to use the idea in cocktail and evening ver sions as well as day wear. The imported narrow, light-weight men's shoe has become so popular that Amer ican shoe manufacturers are adopting the style. The U.S. produced shoes will be lower priced than the Italian im ports.
