Washington Fdshions
By WILMA LAvILLE

Spring is all too short when
you think of the fresh, in
vigorating frocks We have to
wear. This year they are so
attractive that we would like
to carry them into summer.
We can, for travelling and for
cool days, and even for some
of the warm days when it
looks rainy or threatening. For
nothing ever retains a trim fresh
look as we'll as yhe dark
dresses we buy for early spring.
And this year they are young
looking, becoming and easy to
wear as we'll.
A COlOrfuI Spring
Contrast of color is one of
the main ways of giving indi-
viduality to the new dresses.
Stop and count, just to see
how few are all in one color.
You'll see two and three colors,
and sometimes as many tex
lures used together. This is
true of dresses for all times
of the day and evening. Black,
navy and brown all use white,
and you're familiar with the
tri-color combination, black or
blue with red and white. Brown
uses green. yellow or beige for
contrast, and blue is lovely
with pink, beige, gray, yellow,
and other colors.
Satin and Crepe
Both texture and color is
used to advantage in the dress
sketched. In fact, it is i'm
possible to do it justice in a
drawing, so you must see it to
get the fun significance of the
contrasts. There are two COM
binations: black crepe with red
sash and white collar and
shoulder pieces, or gray crepe
with blue sash and white collar
and insets. But the biggest
surprise is that the white part
is satin, on both dresses. Moth
ing could be more becoming
than the narrow rolled collar,
and the bias cutting of the
dress makes it fit beautifully.
The wide sleeves are very new
looking, and will be cool for
summer. In black, it makes an
excellent street dress, and in
gray it is just a little formal
looking. For either combina-
ton, the price is only SIS, and
it is beautifully made.
