Spring styles highlight versatility as well as economy. Trends featured in a recent fashion show emphasize simple costumes with an accent on dress-up or dress-down accessories. For instance, the simple hounds-tooth checked suit above, designed by Joselli, has three-quarter length cuffed sleeves, jacket pockets at the hips and inverted pleat in front of skirt. The accessory that dresses it up is the fluffy lace dickey worn instead of a blouse. The bonnet of white starched straw’, center, will glamorize a suit or dress, with its colorful veil and large satin band that ends in a bow in front. The suit is in all-white, single-breasted style, and with it a colored scarf replaces a blouse. The imported three-color strawjiat.is trimmed .with,a snow-checked weiL (International) j
