NEW YORK. April TITS a
glamorous burden OF chic that wom-
en- Of taste will carry on their fair
shoulders when marching in the
Easter parade this year.
Never we're clothes more ravishing
in their gorgeous femininity, their
delicate, fiattering color and fabrics
and their new styling that capital
ICES charm in every curve and line.
If Easter is warm. which it is
quite apt to be with the day so late
in the season, or If one happens to
live in those southern cimes where
summer is all the year round, the
Easter outfit should naturally be of
silk or some combination OF silk
and cotton or linen. Color is quite
the choice Of the lady who wears
the costume, but certain outstand-
ingly popular shades should be
noted.
Easter POpularizes Blues
One may be blue on Easter Sun
day. but only from a fashion stand
pointl All tones of blue are excel
lent. from baby to midnight, and
many is the alluring outfit that
combines not only two blues but
three.
Beige. tan and a new tone called
twine. soft grays with a touch of
such color as red, green, lavender
and pinks, all the gamut Of greens,
reds, rose pinks and new violet
that typifies some of the loveliest
blooms OF spring are all in high
favor.
Whatever the color one chooses
for stepping out to church on that
style day Of days, she should re-
member certain fashion facts about
line.
Skirts are longer. whether the
majority wants them or not; even
hens are much smarter than dip
ping ones for daytime; waistlines
are marked and for the most part
belted; and there is tremendous in
dividuality to be had in sleeves, both
in lengths and cut.
For the warm hearted Easter lady
there are three exceptionally inter
esting types for her Easter costume
that present a tantalizing triple
choice to the woman who is proud
of her beauty and knows enough to
capitalize it.
Three Types Offered
All three of these types of cos
tunes are entirely new style de-
velopments this year. All three
have a soft, dangerous grace in their
gentle lines that is quite expressive
both of springs spirit and the new
movement toward lady-clothes. All
three proclaim in print that they
possess the loneliness that all women
crave.
Dainty as the most feminine miss
is the fitted little silk suit with
long-peplum to its coat outlined in
fur. The printed crepe is many
shades of tiny, rose-toned flowers
against deep blue backgrounds
combination of color that Paris
created and all America sponsors.
The fox that edges the deep pep
lum Of the coat is blue fox, than
which there is no more luxuriously
toned fur in the world.
Frock Is Sleeveless
The little frock of this outfit is
sleeveless, with one of the new soft
frilly necks that wears its collar
outside its coat for the sake of new
ness and jauntinesS and in the name
Of youth! All seams are piped in
rose and the gloves and hosiery are
a biege that match.
A navy blue bag and a erin hat
In blue with the new off-the-fore-
head and a sweet ribbon bow for
trim complete the costume.
Next comes the sleeveless cape en-
semble, this one made up in stun
ming color tones of a finely figured
gray georgette. flecked with red, for
the frock and a red fiat crepe
sleeveless cape with lining and Ia
peis Of the georgette.
The frock is a delectable model,
with full finely pleated skirt with
scalloped lower edge and side panels
also scalloped.
The bodice fits snugly and IS belt
ed at the waistline and the sleeves
of the frock end just above the ell
bow. while gray suede gloves go up
to meet them in quite the latest,
approved manner. One Of the straw
berets, in the coats red, makes q
shining frame for Easter loneliness
For the young lady who has
known enough to retain certain
buoyant Tilt of dead fapperism and
