RESORT fashiohs now pouring into local stores are exciting enough to make any woman—vacation bound or no—long for sunshine and something new. And why not indulge yourself, while “pickin’s good"?

® ‘= =» A HINT OF THINGS to come is evident from the representative costumes shown here. First there’s- skirt length, Take your choice. It's open season on calves. Skirts will be either full or slim, - according to your whim, There will be lots of new ways

to cover up bare shoulders. The

stole, ‘bless it, is still with us,

A |

but newer yet are the very brief capes and wonderfully flattering little cardigans.

Above all, don’t underestimate the power of the petticoat sleeve. You'll find it on suits and coats as well as sportswear and evening gowns, It's wonderfully . cool, wonderfully flattering.

Vital Hints On The Way To Choose Undercover Silhouet

WITH so many silhouets from which to choose —the middy, the princess, the bell, the sheath-—it’s no wonder a woman has quite a time deciding to which form she will fashion her figure. But whichever she chooses, her best

aid to achieving that look is her foundation garment.

The cinch is perfect for makingothe least of one's waist, to complement the billowing fulness of the bell skirt. A regular strapless half bra or one with plunging neckline molds the bosom becomingly to the needs . of evening decolletes. The slim hip girdle defines the lines of< the sheath, and the

versatile all-in-one gives a Tig-

ure-right look to the princess silhouette. _ The corset and brassiere industry promises new underpinnings for the new silhouet, with emphasis on high waisted girdles and long line brassieres for all figure types.

= » »

BUT ONE'S concern, when buying foundations for fash-

ion, should also be directed to health and comfort.

If your bra binds or lets the flesh bulge, try another size or style, because the one you are wearing isn’t right.

Main things to watch for in buying a brassiere are correct cup size, band and straps that can be adjusted comfortably without cutting into the flesh,

and whether the garment holds the breasts in a natural posi-

tion. = » » AS THE RIGHT bra is an aid to health, so is a correctly fitted girdle. Never try to

squeeze into a girdle that is too tight. Take your time when you shop for foundations.

BUTTERFLIES AND BEETLES | —A clever three-dimensionol ! print on imported cotton do- | mask (left). Butterfly cut-outs faced with velvet are clustered on one shoulder and the opposite hip. A Ben Reig original (Wasson’s). The petticoat sleeve is a trend to watch in spring ond summer fashions. | Here interpreted in double | white-under-navy silk organd- | nett (above). Tiny waist, full | skirt, plunging neckline are typical Joseph Halpert tricks | to make you lovely. His fash- | ions available aot Block's.
