Seven Suit Types In Spring Fashion By GAY PAULEY UPI Women s Editor NEW YORK < UPl'—The suit, classic portion of a woman’s wardrobe, comes in several popular versions for spring, 1960. Members of the New York Couture Group featured at least seven suit types in collections being shown this week to visiting fashion reporters. They are: —The soft suit, with small collar edged away from the neckline and an eased fit to the jacket. —The costume suit, with accompanying print blouse and jacket lined in the same fabric. —The Chanel suit, named for the French designer. Gabrielle Chanel, who first popularized the casual, cardigan jacket: it comes with an overblouse or tuck -in shirt. —The fitted jacket suit, with three, four or five buttons closing the single - breasted suit, usually with jacket reaching only to the waist, worn with pleated skirt. —The suit with the wide neckline, an open area providing a setting for many strands of pearls, bib necklace or scarf; th jacket is cropped at the waist. —The deep armbole suit, with sloping shoulders, belted or fitted at the waist. Suit jackets come in three lengths — thbse that skim the waist, hug it, or cover the upper hipbone. lengths range from 3 “ehtfly. above-elbow to bracelet— leaving bare enough of the forearm to show jewelry. Most skirts are narrow, but each collection includes a few suits with skirts flared, gored, or pleated. The waste of life lies in the love we have not given, the powers we have not used, the selfish predence which will risk nothing. Every man has an equal chance to become greater than he is.

"Don’t you know it's a sin for any work to begin on the Sabbath?" — Marion looked up calmly and answered.
