THE IMPORTANCE OF THE JACKET
No Matter What the Occasion,
the Jacket Is an Essential
Part of the Costume.
BY MARIE MAROT.

BY MARIE MAROT.
AYEVER in the history Of
Fashion has the jacket
assumed the Importance
that it has at present. For
every occasion, from sports to
formal evening wear, the jacket
is considered an essential part
of the costume.
For early Spring wear, it is
shown in a diversity of styles
and materials. Sometimes match
ing the costume, more often
contrasting as to color and ma
terial, the jacket seems to be
here to stay.
In the illustration are two
fetching costumes for Spring.
At the left an interesting COM
bination of materials is effected.
The jacket is wool georgette, in
sage green. The skirt in a light
weight wooden material, is plaid
in Shades Of cream and sage
green. The interesting blouse
with its round collar and tiny
pleatings is of cream crepe satin.
Worn with a green felt hat and
matching shoes and bag, it il
indeed worthy of attention.
On the right is a more formal
outfit of black crepe satin. The
abbreviated Elton jacket is worn
over a blue blouse which carries
IN interesting jabot fril at the
side. The skirt is worthy of at
tention inasmuch as the lacing
of the yoke at the side is a dis
tinct innovation. A hat match
ing the blouse completes this
charming costume.
Cardigan jackets in gay col
ors, over sleeveless dresses of
plain color, bid fair to be one of
the most popular sports outfits
of the season. Then the flow
cred materials, crepe, g~eorgette,
chiffon and cottons are showing
a bewildering array Of jacketed
costumes that are adorable.
At any rate, to be distinctly
ain the SWIM" don't neglect
the jacket.
