In the lineup of suit fashions
for spring there is a splendid op-
portunity for individuality, but
above all to be smart one must
be suited" There are models
that affect a buSineSslike char
acter and in this group many
versions. The three-piece dress
maker type, mannish treatments
and a military type with padded
shoulders. This padded shoul-
der suggests an exaggeration Of
the figure, style promotion and
ideas of smartly dressed women.
The suit tailored of softer ma
terials differs greatly from the
one of last season, contributing
more feminine appearance than
the plainly tailored silk jacket of
last season. The expression "tai-
lor made" is taken for granted,
but many versions Of the mode
are typified in the present-day
costumes for daytime wear. The
peplum, flares. pleats and belted
jackets are offering a diversity
in this popular fashion.
The cardigan jacket is again
receiving due popularity, being
