Frances Sider uses Celanese hand-screened rayon jersey to fashion a young and gay two-piece bathing suit (left). Bright poppies dance across a white background on the softly pleated brief skirt gathered to a flat waistband. The nude-top bra shirs with a matching self-fabric cord. Another of Miss Sider's new beachwear outfits is "Spindléwaist” (right). The slim corseted look which she develops in a play skirt of Wesley Simpson flower print on a slipcover fabric is teamed with a two-piece nude-top rayon jersey bathing suit. Here it is in a purple shade which picks up the predominant flower color in the print.

TO MOST OF us, the annual two-weeks-with-pay are still a mirage—but there are those lucky souls who have only to hurdle the holidays before they land sun-tan deep in a winter vacation. For them, Frances Sider recently showed her cruise collection in New York. While we may envy those who get the first crack at wearing the new Sider styles, we can find consolation in the fact that the styles that go south in January come right back up here for June. Ultimately, we'll get to wear them, too. Miss Sider calls her holiday formula “Time Out for Play.” Backbone of the lot were playsuits that double for bathing, are pretty enough to wear in the sun and functional enough to get wet and like it.

Pale wool jersey bathing suits, in gray, sand brown, azure blue and white, were shirred and draped and were called “Sea Siders” after Frances Sider herself. Bullfighter shorts and their accompanying tops and matching jackets reappeared in the new collection—with a new look be-

Just as their title indicates, these flowered chintz tops slip over bathing suits and play clothes. Here again the “spindlewaist” bouffant skirt reappeared.

But hats are her hobby. A hat, Mrs. Byrne said, tells the jworld like a billboard of the per- | sonality within it.

The aver- | age housewife and shopgirl needs {and wants to be taught how to buy {wisely and with good taste, but be- | lyond a course or two offered in! high schools, has no place to learn, Mrs, Byrne said She wrote a fashion-advice umn for a local newspaper, but quit it impatiently because “it didn’t reach enough people.’ She expended some of her creative energy in “building which her friends liked well they asked ner to design special ones for them. She did so many she decided to open a combination |studio-hat shop which now is a {thriving business | But she still had the urge to instruct, so this young blue-eyed blond coerced, cajoled and charmed staid Western Reserve university into letting her start a course in creative millinery.
