Short FOrmals

Amelita Ward, film luminary,
belongs to the school that pre-
fers the short formal. Her latest
gown is of navy with a nude
lace top, long sleeves and low
back. White scrolls emphasize
the bust line. When she goes
out on date, she adds tiny
navy hat with white feathers.
Slippers are navy with white
bows. ...
Amelita, who is clever with the
sewing needle, made a new hat
for evening. She cut out the
crown OF. an old black felt, made
it into a fiat v shape, draped
two long owl feathers back and
front. Like that, a dressy hat!
