THE FLOWERS THAT

bLOVM IN IhE SFhANG
 Prints look good enough to eat, especially Easter's floral prints. Floral motifs march up and down in stripes, swing in daisy chains and very often, are combined with other motifs such as checks or scrolls. These are splashy silk prints which resemble a garden planted with those surprise packets of mixed flower seeds.
 Monotone silk prints are lively and include such objects as roosters, dogs, penguins, mice and trees. Molyneux's Map of Finland" print is exciting. Polka dots are rampant. Except for the splashy florals, small, indefinite designs are most highly recommended. The bow-knot motif looks especially nice. Stylized leaves in cool shades of green also are well worth consideration.
