S. — DENIM DESIGNS CAN WHIRL THROUGH HOMEWORK Time was when the lady of the house could get through her daily routine with a few housedresses and aprons. T«4ay, however, there is another consideration — her dual role: as a homemaker with a million hectic chores and, during leisure hours, as an active participant in community life. Her wardrobe, too, requires more attention and must serve a dual function. With this consideration in mind, many spotrswear designers have come up with smart creations for the homemaker in blue work denim — designs that are functional because of the very nature of the rugged fabric. Among the more popular items for spring are the blue denim wrap skirt and culotte combined with attractive coordinates. These outfits will see a woman through the most strenous household chores and whisk her smartly through an afternoon of meetings and shopping. TYiat dreaded doorbell can now ring a dozen times a day without being answered with the exclamation, “I’m a mess!”—thanks to the navy work denim tent dress and looseback shift treated with such accents as calico trim and red or white stitching.

MEN’S SPRING HATS SHOW STRONG TREND TO PINCHED FRONT CROWNS When it is said that men’s hats are “shaping up” for spring, it is more than a mere figure of spech. There will be more smart shapes in both blocks and brims than have ever been offered before. The new crowns are offered in several variations. The most popular is the orown with the plain center creasb, in both full and tapered shapes. There is also a strong trend to the pinched front crowns, the newest of which have rather elongated side dents extending from the front to a point close to the rear of the bow. The new silhouette blocks with the convex tops are going great guns in sport hats, particularly in those made of fabric. Brim widths range from the very narrow 1%-inch for young men, through the most popular 1%-inch, up to a rather wide 2inch width. Obviously, weights for spring are lighter and the average felt hat body is far more supple as a result. However, there are some even lighter and more supple than the rest. These are the rollable, foldable, packable travel hats. Similar types are growing in popularity in straw hats, too. Some of those soft bodied straws can even be shaped to the wearer’s taste. There is also a trend toward natural color straws in both the soft and conventional bodies.

THEY RESIST RAIN, BUT DON’T SHOW IT Simple, pared-down lines, luxury fabrics and styling for both rain and shine highlight new rainwear. The smartest “raincoats” look like any spring, evening or travel coat, but they have the plus of water-repellency. Fabrics make important rainshine news, with silk appearing prominently — silk linen, silk ribbed ottoman, silk worsted, silk pongee, silk surrah and nubby silk tweed. Other fabrics include wool jersey, cotton velveteen, waffle-weave pique, moire, pop-

Buoyant bulk is ; charmingly flaunted in this bold pink and black souffle Scottish plaid mohair coat costume (left) by Monte Sano. Coat is paired with a pink jersey two-piece dress. Vibrant hot pink 1 English wool plaid is used for the close-to-the-body spring coat (right). Matching chiffon scarf is pink, too. This is a Ben Zuckerman design. *-

TOPCOATS GO TO “SUITING WEIGHTS” Keyed to the mild days of the vernal season, the new spring toppers are made of “suiting weight” fabrics. For instance, there are trim but tough sharkskins, sophisticated nailheads, houndstooth checks and sporty glen plaids woven of fine worsted yarns. Then, of course, there are the soft, luxurious cashmeres, cashmere blends and camel hairs. The

natural tan camel tones, incidentally, are making a strong comeback. These, too, are in the light color trend, as well as in the new lightweight swing. Natural - shoulder devotees will get their topcoat kicks from subtly colored shetlands and cheviots, as well as from classic coverts. Most of these will be in the traditional, fly-front, slightly fitted chesterfield models. Starting in the natural-shoulder field, but now branching out into

the other groups as well, is another revival—the reversible topcoat. Made with a topcoat tweed on one side and reversing to a raincoat poplin on the other, the stylish turncoat is great for travel, campus and sportswear. Regular raincoats are ready to shed spring rains with new waterproof finishes. If you have something to sell or trade — use the Democrat Want ads — they get BIG results.
