TWO-COLOR DRESSES
AGAIN FIND FAVOR

The two-color frock-once high fa-
vorite but lately almost banished from
the scene-is staging fashion come
back.
Though far from holding the spot
light, it is beginning to be seen again
in women's spring wardrobes.
Sometimes it appears in a frock
which has dropped shoulder yoke
of one color and the body of the dress
in another
Again it is seen in model whose
sleeves contrast with that of the frock
or a trim little dress that has deep
yoke of a contrasting hue.
And there are other variations of
the vogue for two colors.
Lanvin puts cherry-red satin sleeves
in a black afternoon frock and adds
elbow bracelets of the same bright red
satin.
She designs a black wool frock with
frilled epaulets, sleeves and small col
lar of apple-green satin and puts a
deep U-shaped white wool yoke on a
black wool frock to give a contrasting
touch.

especially calling attention to the
smart black kid opera pumps which
milady of the necktie-print frock is
wearing. These pumps have beau
tifully designed simple arrow motif at
the side-just that touch which car
ries them out of the rank and file.
The hat which tops this chic outfit is
black felt smartly banded with white.
The point about the print conferred
in the picture is that it has a navy
background The flowers are In tones
of mulberry and white. Seeing that
fashion has gone into "the navy'' so
intellectually this spring, navy ae-
cessories are inevitable and so with
this captivating spring frock accents
of this color very mOdishly appear in
hat, girdle and chic pair of navy
blue kid strap pumps with circular
motifs piped in contrasting white.
The thing you are bound to remem-
Der about the print dress on the seat
ed figure is that it is shocked at neck
line and sleeves. AS trimming treat
ment for prints here is real news. 1t
is our prophesy that you will be think
ing so excitedly over this idea you
will resolve at once that it is exactly
what you will do with the print frock
you are going to make up in the near
future-smock it! You'll love the
color scheme of this print in the pie
ture, too. It's tango red and beige.
Sounds intriguing, does it not?
Briefly we would call your atten-
ton to the new sheer wool prints and
; the messy crepe prints and the hand
some bordered prints all of which are
headliners on the spring fabric pro-
gram.

LAVE you noticed how remarkably
l 4 simple is the styling of the new
print frocks? One almost gasps at
their simplicity-straigh narrow skirt,
top part frequently in shirtwaist fash
ion or made ostensibly plain with
sleeves which are either three-quarter
or full length, often quite full at the
armhole or that which is newest of
all, fairly close-fitting from shoulder
to wrist.
Well now, this glaring simplicity is
not mere happenstance. Rather is
it deliberate move on the part of
designers to create along lines that
are different. With all their seeming
simplicity there is something about
these new print gowns which bespeaks
the very quintessence of high fashion.
OF course the prints themselves are
as new, as new-looking as can be both
in motif and coloring. SO much so
that a last years print sadly looks it
by the side of a today's patterning
and weave. For example, there's the
new necktie prints such as the one
which fashions the very good-looking
dress to the left in the picture. To
be clad in a frock of necktie print
silk during the daytime hours is to
declare yourself style-conscious to the
last degree. This model is designed
for immediate wear under ones win
ter coat. 1t plays up the idea of SIM
plicity with consummate art. Note the
dropped shoulderline, the scarf of self
print, the slim gored skirt and that
which is of greatest significance, the
new three-quarter sleeve.
One of the joys of gay springtime
is the stepping out in new and fash
ionable footwear, which is why we are
