Os the purple fashions, that have -Wered up to now. the accent touch rfaccessories received most that was rovided by a decorative response. L the entire frock of purple, eVen though intermittenly there has been conscious effort at making it a high fashion, has remained as the exceptional or occasional thing, with the exception of sportswear, where it was jpin a matter of blended colors such „ resulted from tweed mixtures. It still has not the general endorseI nent that is awarded greens or reds, I for example, but the repetition of ! MU ve. plum or lavender as well as I violet in a single high style collection is significant. Without nnderscorI in* the color, in this as well as other i collections, where it has been seen. I the impression of "purple in the air” is unmistakable. ! While in this discussion, its newness is remarked in the unadulterated versions, there is still sufficient support given the exotic peony and petunia hues in several of the important medium-price showings.
