PATOU OFFERS VIVID AND VARIED COLORS FOR SPRING

Silhouette Is Changed Entirely BY JEAN PATOU Written for SEA Service PARIS, March 18.—Vivid and varied colorings and an entirely new silhouette are the striking characteristics of my spring collection, which aims for all tnat is conveyed by the season—light, sunshine, and better days. The line calls for fullness on the sides, with front and back perfectly flat. This is a brusk departure from last year’s theme of flat sides with all fullness massed at the front and back. The new mode is rather reminiscent of the Mexican gaucho, and will be found easy to wear and very becoming. Matching tones are in disfavor, and all hues of the artist’s palette now are being called upon to enrich and adorn pretty women. Opaline Colors Are New I am offering as new colors opaline yellow and opaline green. Like my “rase opaline’’ of last summer, these two shades are taken from the tints of the opalines beloved by our grandmothers. The green will suit women with blond or red hair, while the yellow will become brunettes and chestnutbrowns. You might be astonished at first by the audacity of some of the color combinations, but that is because the eye has become dull by the excessive sobriety of coloring of past seasons. This will pass quickly, and we shall Eoon know again the joy of beautiful colors. Although much black is used as a sobering influence, there is a tendency to combine several colors with the apparition of a bold touch in an otherwise severe ensemble. Strives for Youthfuless This may be attained by a flower, handkerchief, blouse or hat. Incut and coloring, I have striven for youthfulness and smartness. Clothes for golf, traveling, motoring or just merely walking have remained practically the same. I have used some wool jerseys, but the majority of models are made of English fabrics. For beach clothes T have two formulas; firstly, the silk pajama, now worn universally, and, secondly, a more practical and really original idea which consists of an ensemble fashioned in jersey and comprising a pair of shorts and a pair of beach pajamas, thus combining the beach and swimming suit in one. Three Types Shown For morning clothes opinion is divided on what is correct to wear. Some women prefer the tailored siut, some the simple dress worn underneath a coat, and others the tailored coat-dress. All three types are represented in my collection, but the same air of sobriety prevails throughout. The silhouette is simple, although inspired from the general line of evening dresses. The main characteristic is in impeccable cut, and the fabrics used are the best English weaves. For afternoon wear wool jersey, lacking in refinement and real elegance, has almost disappeared, having given place to the old conception of the tea gown. The new afternoon dress has not the richness and femininity of olden times, it is true, but that is only normal. Tailored Suits Are Supple In this category there are many coats and a very few supple, very dressy tailored suits. When I use a coat. I have two formulas, either the long white or colored tunic reaching to within a few inches of the hem of the skirt and the coat no longer than the tunic, or a dress of printed fabric entirely covered by a long, plain coat. Anew feature is the total absence of both cut and dress of the same material. For formal evening wear the mode this season has much more fantasy, is much bolder and shows new color combinations. Wraps are very alluring, with striking lines and are often trimmed with fur. In blouses, there is a very new feature in the shawl movement. Sometimes this is done in lingerie, sometimes in a different fabric than the dress, but often it is done with the same material. These fichus call for the flowerposy. which completes them harmoniously.

What’s in Fashion?

Spring Topcoats for Men Directed By AMOS PARRISH

NEW YORK, March 18.—What kind of topcoat are you going to year this spring, Mr. Man? We’ll bet we know. The chances are more than 50-50 that it’s going to be the same type most other well-dressed men are going to wear. And that’s one of those good, comfortable English swagger coats. With .• traight-cut back and three-button, single-breasted front. It’ll have notiched lapels. Probably patch pockets. Probably plain, set-in sleeves, though possibly raglan sleeves (the kind where the sleeves continues up into the shoulder). It will be long enough to reach two or three inches below your knees. And it will be made of a not-to-warm and not- -to - cool tweed. And this you can see in the sketch. More men are going to wear this coat this spring than any other kind, because they’ve found it can’t be beat for comfort and for longwearing, continually good-looking qualities. New Covert Coats If you start checking up on spring topcoats, you may think thi3 is the only kind there is. But it isn’t. A newer kind . . . one that caught on last year ... is the topcoat of covert cloth. Not anywhere near as popular as the tweed coat, of course. But for that very reason, lots of men prefer it. Covert cloth is a hard material. In color, a greenish-tan. The model is similar to the so-called “town” topcoat, with fly front (as sketched) or with three-button, double-breast-ed closing. Town Coats The regulation town coat of harder materials like worsted is getting more popular, especially among men who feel the need of a

French Group Hears Lecture by Prof. Fotos “The Influence of Feminism on the Literature of the Seventeeenth Century” was the subject of an address given Tuesday night by Professor'John T. Fotos of Purdue university before members of the Alliance Francaise, at the Spink-Arms. The speaker said that the influence was intellectual and moral, rather than political and economic, as is the influence of modern women. He told of the salons organized by women of the seventeenth century aristocracy, for the purpose of study and discussion of literature. The salons attracted writers of the time, and as a result the personal literature of the time, including memoirs and letters, was developed. Professor Fotos said that it was through the work of the women in the salons that French became a highly polished and expressive language, and the medium of diplomatic and artistic experssion in Europe. Mrs. Campbell to Speak Mrs. S. Neil Campbell, vice-presi-dent of the Indiana League of Women Voters, will speak at the luncheon meeting of the Women’s Alliance of All Souls Unitarian church at 12:30 Thursday at the church. She will explain the purpose oLthe organization.

more formal look as they go about their spring business. It has rather padded shoulders and fits more or less snugly around the waist and hips. These town coats are both single and double-breasted. Most of them have plain backs, but some have the half-belted back with the belt either stitched on or loose. With younger men the camel’s hair coat has lost not a bit of its popularity. Single or double-breasted Tweed Swagger Coat . . . with plain back or half-belted back—it will be seen both on the university campus and in the cities. In the natural tan color, mostly. But some in navy blue or dark gray. Most of the tweed topcoats will be in the familiar herringbone weaves and pepper-and-salt patterns. Plaids have made their appearance at certain fashionable English resorts, but have not been taken to so kindly by the majority of American business men.

NEW IDEA SAVES SILK HOSE Expensive at best, silk hose and undergarments are made doubly so by improper washing. A fashion expert has found anew, simple way to correct this. She adds a tablespoonful of Energine to every quart of lukewarm, soapy water. Then she washes and rinses the articles as usual. The addition of Energine removes all the body excretions that soften and rot silk. The results are amazing. Not only does this method give new cleanliness and freshness with original color revived, but actually gives longer life to hose and undergarments. Try this new method. It’s easier and quicker than just soap and water alone, means less rubbing and insures extra wear that will surprise you. Energine is unexecelled, also, for quickly removing all dirt and grease spots from dresses, hats, gloves, shoes, etc. Large can 35 cents at any drug store. —Advertisement.
