The tendency for the silhon- ette to trend away from stereotyped form to lines of gentle grace Is notable this segson, especially In the suit realm where the jaunty bo. lero in all its versatile moods is Injecting a rofreshing note of youth, The promotion of the cape theme is also exercising a marked Influence throughaut the moe this season. Add the two together, the bolero plus a cunning cape effect, and the result gures a sum-total of chic for the spring suit as ultra, according to the model in the picture, as any college Zirl might envy. The fact that the capelet and brief jacket are scalloped, all the more emphasizes the departure from the severely tallored. Very interesting and style-signifi- cant, too, Is the skirt which achieves its smart flare vin many sections of the material which are skillfully seamed together. Skirts which are fitted snugly about the hips with the flare starting about the knees lead among the new silhouettes, No less Important than the jacket sult itself is the blouse which is worn with it. As every woman knows, there's magic In a blouse. In the twinkling of an eye It can change a suit of tallored aspect into as dressy looking costume as one may have need of during the daytime hours and vice versa. This season, more than ever, designers are playing up blouses with vim, vigor and intriguing artistry. The sleeveless blouse worn with the suit pictured Is of aquamarine geor- gette. The assortment of blouses for spring are bewildering in thelr diver. sity of color, fabric and styling. Two types are, however, outstanding-those of plald or stripes and those of lace. The necessity of acquiring a whole wardrobe of blouses this season Is ob. vious, As to the lace blouse it may be as frilly and frivolous as fancy ean ple. ture, and this type Is adorable with the youthful bolero suits. Designers are also very enthusiastic In regard to the new linen lace. Many of the hand. somest blouses In the season's collee- tions are of this ‘*pe of lace In either natural tint or In any of the pastel colorings, (@, 1921, Western Newspaper Union.)
