Style Detail Changes By French Designers Make New Silhouet
Nearly All Widen Shoulder Line _ Slightly and Place Emphasis on Apron
By ROSETTE HARGROVE
PARIS, Apr. 14—While the French designers aren't| staging a major style revolution this spring, they have made numerous changes in detail, enough to make the new .silhouet clearly different from that of a year ago. Nearly all designers have widened the shoulder line’ slightly, | for example, dropped the back waistline, placed an emphasis on the apron. What they've done can be quickly tabulated with a fashion | alphabet like this. A for aprons, endorsed by all designers but particularly Jean Desses. | The apron may be gathered, pleated, hitched up on the sides or turned back over a pocket. Detachable, it can do double duty as! a cape. A is also for arrow. Jacques Fath’s line stars arrow collars and decolletes, arrow fastenings on jackets and basques. B for buttons that vary in size from tiny studs to Fath’s enormous “flying saucer.” Bows range from a diminutive tie to the enormous |
butterfly by Balenciaga, which can also serve as a short evening wrap. Basques, bfistles, beehive coats from Griffe, and backless coats from Piguet all belong in this category. i © for crinolines, both short and long. Coat dresses vie with spring suits for popularity. Capes, collars, chicken-leg sleeves by Dior, cutaway jackets, checked fabrics are all important C's. D for dickeys, drapery, decollete and diamonds, all in the spot-
M for mummy-draped evening sheath gowns, which look new as handled by Gres. Muffs, tufted, shirred and worn on one sleeve, are pretty. Mushroom straw hats, the enormous, crowned Edwardian kind, are from Dior. N for nest decolettes in the Mad Carpentier collection. Nest-shir-ring is used to edge skirts, to form rounded shoulder yokes. O for Dior’s oval line. Overskirts
are turned back or opened onto.
