Tops Capri Pants Pedal Pushers Shorts Dresses Lingerie and Foundations A fin selection at very low prices organdies, lace and silk were noted for afternoon and eve ning wear. Skirts were uni versally short-very much so for cocktail and evening frocks. Billowing skirts some times tipped to reveal inches of stocking above the models' knees. In contrast to the clothes on the runway Saturday eve ning, were the gowns and eve ning suits of the women in the audience. Fully half wore black; the costumes providing color in the dining room were for the most part dramatic prints of blue and green com binations. Providing a decorative background in the show theme "Portrait of the Six ties," were Mrs. L. S. Ellis and Mrs. David Holmes. They were seated in large frames at either side of the stage, and in the center stood a third frame through which the models reached the runway. Mrs. Ellis wore a creamy brown silk organza polka dot frock with portrait collar and Mrs. Holmes wore a tiered pale blue organdy gown with a froth of white lace ' ruffles accenting the enormous skirt. From time to time league members are able to cajole a husband or two into joining the cast for the style shows. Rodger Sterton and Jack Ed son assisted for the Saturday night show. Mr. Sterton mod eled an interesting summer suit of horizon blue which the maker guarantees is ma chine washable and dryable. For his first trip down the runway, Mr. Edson wore matching slacks and jacket the color of which is de scribed as a mixture of olive and charcoal. The style show closed with a wedding party, with Mrs. Brian Stringer gowned as the bride. Mrs. John Lynch and Mrs. Floyd Hart Jr., were the bridesmaids and Miss Diane Lewis modeled the maid-of-honor's frock. The bridal gown was fashioned of tiers of scalloped embroidered ruf fles flowing into a sweep train. The veil was unusual in that it was held by large pouffs which cover the head. White hyacinths made up a bride's bouquet. The bridesmaids' gowns were of sheer organza with cascades of embroidery in caramel color. The extremely full skirts fell from nipped-in waists. The honor maid's gown was of nylon sheer with taffeta cummerbund and sun burst panel of embroidery done in caramel on white. To accent the attendants' gown, their bouquets were of carnations sprayed with cop per. Models for the show were league members and their families. The list of models included Mrs. Edwin R. Durno, Mrs. Stringer, Mrs. Hensely, Mrs. Lynch, Mrs. Hart, Mrs. Ralph Hibbs, Mrs. Houston Pitts, Mrs. Frank Hopewell, Mrs. Tod Tibbutt, Mrs. Billy Black stone and the Misses Judy Wood, Christine Bartels, Bev erly Bush, Diane Lewis, Sue Jahn and Claudia Edson, and the two men Mr. Sterton and Mr. Edson.
