Make sure the jacket is as
flattering as the dress itself -and

that each of the hues is com
plementary to tho-whole, and
to you.

British Men Stage
Fashion Revolt
While . Americans look to
the British accented styles in
men's wear. Britons (men,
that is) stage a fashion revolt.
This year will be remem
bered as the year the British
male finally shook off the last
vestiges of war - time dress
styles.
All categories of male wear
will be highlighted with more
colorful and light weighted
clothes. Some of the "revolu
tion" details he's gladly drop
ping are belted rain and top
coats, heavily padded shoul
ders, ample seat pants and
dark color suits for lighter.
brighter colored ones. He's
trading those "hangovers" for
knee length "shorty" rain and
top coats, cuffless tapered
pants, brightly colored vests
and innovations In formal
dress wear to give the tradi
tional British look a distinc
tive American accent.
Bowling Fashions
Develop With
Popularity Rise
Baseball had. better watch
out, because there's a sport
that's rapidly rising toward
the number one sport of Amer
ica's favorite sports. It's bolw
ingt About 26 million people
in the United States flocked
to the lanes last year, and
new fans are made every day.
One of the biggest reasons
for this increase is the change
in the character of Bowling
Centers. Not too many years
ago these were called Bowl
ing Alleys, and the change of
name is not the only change.
' Bowling centers today are
becoming lavish entertain
ment headquarters, complete
with cocktail lounges, bowling
boutiques, - restaurants, art
galleries and baby care nur
series.
Attracts Women -
Bowling, being a sport the
entire family can enjoy, has
attracted many women . .; .
and when women take up a
sport, they must have the
proper (smart) clothing. Tra
ditionally, bowling outfits
take their style clue from the
need for freedom of action.
But, tradition has been brok
en! . .
Culottes get big pay with
abstrainters reasoning that
they are awkward, but the
abstralners are few. Tunics
over tights or slim jims are
also popular as they are both
attractive and, comfortable.
For those who refuse to ap
pear in slacks, skirts with
matching tops take on a new
look with gores that are def
inite, rather than having the
look that they are trying to
conceal themselves! One ex
ample Is a skirt with multi
colored insets that show when
the skirt flares out.
UNDERCOVER SILKS
Women who love the luxur
ious feel -of silk against their
skin, will be delighted with
the many ways in which these
elegant fabrics are being used
in foundations this spring.
Bras, girdles and corselets are
featuring it in many guises,
ranging from, silk-covered
elastics to lush silk crepe de
chine.
Hats Move To Side;
Handbags Are Long;
Gloves for Season
Hats wiU still be high, but
this season the real Interest
moves to the side.
In the manner of the Twen
ties and Thirties, the brim
will be flipped up on the side,
or pulled down close to one
cheek with a touch of eye-
stopping trim at that point.
The little hats take to the
side too, but moving to the
tilt just ever so slightly from
the top of the head. These are
truly "little hats," not even
large enough . to cover the
crown. , ;
In between in size are the
new semi-bowl styles, the
cloches, turbans, bretons, sail
ors and toques. Also promi
nent are small -crown hats
with enormous brims. .
, Every color will be seen In
spring millinery, with lilac
and off-white slated for a big
appearance.- Trims are most
often color-contrasted and

Textured straw is some
thing very different in new
millinery, due to the treat
ment hat designers have given
it. In many styles it creates a
decided three-dimensional ef
fect. Felt, velvet and veil
pouffs are all excitingly used
too. ' ;

Handbags Long .
As hats have grown high
handbags have grown long.
The most forward looking
shape is the envelope, which
has been streamlined to zoom
up to 20 inches. Some styles
have handles, but most are
meant to be carried under the
arm.

British Accent Is
Seen in Spring's
Fashion for Men
If sportswear for Spring,
1961 could speak, reports the
American Institute of Men's
and Boys' Wear, it would
have a decided British accent.
From coats and slacks to shirts
and walk shorts, the word is
Britlsh-but with an obvious
American flavor.
Sport jeckets,' for instance.
Include a modified British
hacking style-waistlines, a bit
accented, shoulders natural,
with a slight flare-out at the
base and vents at the side or
in the center.
Stronger patterns and bold
er colors are to be found in
Ivy type sport coats, while
the Continentals have edged
closer than ever to the more
conservative Trans-American
Design.
Slim Silhouette
Slacks continue in the slim
silhouette so familiar in recent
seasons, with convenient self-
supporting waistband in great
er evidence than ever.
Seersucker, a definite Brit
ish favorite, will have wider
acceptance in casual sulti.
sport jackets as well as in
slacks, walk shorts and sport
shirts-many are blessed with
wash-wear properties.
Knitted sport shirts are
among the- leaders for spring-
wear this season, while in
cut-and-sewn types for sports
wear, pullovers will reach
great popularity. Returning to
favor are the so-called jacket
shirts which, in many cases,
are designed for wear with
walk shorts, slacks and swim
ming trunks, in the country
or at the beach. A new note in
knitted shirts has been intro
duced with such touches as
sweater-designs, and fresh de
tailing around collars and
shoulders. -Summerweights
, '.
Speaking of sweaters, they
now come in summerweights
In a profusion of styles, in
cluding cardigans and pullov
ers. Virtually all the casual
wear and leisure wear for
spring-summer 1961, point up
stripes in a tremendous varie
ty.' New interpretations of the
batik pattern, the selection of
beachwear styles and ideas
may possibly be the biggest
ever. There's also a new em
phasis on seersucker as a
sportswear fashion fabric.
Carefree, relaxed and British-accented
these sum up the
spring and summer sports
wear picture for 1961.
HERE TO STAY
Minimus are here to stay,
because of their wonderful
versatility and comfortable
ness! They serve as a duster,
hcuiscclress or patio lounger,
all-in-one. Spring versions of
the muumuu are again bril
liant with exotic Hawaiian
flower prints and often are
carbon-copied in a smaller
size for daughter.

Mad for Season
Gloves are made fnr tho
season, young, airy, fresh and
coior-ongnt. Whether cropped
or mldarm, they are just what
the bare arm fashions must
have. There's , a short glove
now' that's cropped to below
the wrist (a real bracelet-lover!).
Scarves are ready for hap

breezes blow . . . most are
frankly conversation , pieces,
featuring stylized motifs, elec
trifying colors and sometimes
reproductions of artistic mas

Not to forget beach and re
sort accessories, they may be
summed up as: inventive,
whimsical and sometimes
most' extravagantl
. A strong Eastern influence
has invaded spring collections,
resulting in some unusual and
exotic fashions. The authentic
sari styHng of India has been
adapted to a dinner-cocktail
sheath with modified scoop
neckline and gold - banded
short sleeves. This striking
version of the sari can be
worn with or without a sepa
rate floor-length skirt which
has been split at the sides.:
Certain Fashions Will Go Anywhere
No matter where you look
this spring, you'll find certain
dresses, coats, suits, separates
and sportswear that will look
right, feel right and be right
for any place in the world,
and time of the year.
Whether worn on the fash
ionable boulevards of the
world, or at a suburban coun
try club, or in a smart restau
rant in town, these clothes
travel well with women-on-the-go.

en knits, wonderful Orlons
and Dacrons, and blends with
silk; cotton knits, Dacron with

fashions.
These are the clothes that

flights, fit Into a sports car,
get on a train or go aboard
ships - with equal poise.
They are almost wrinkle
free, many shrug off all stains
with ease, and most are adapt-'
able to climatic changes and
any and all dress-up occasions.
