This convertible fash- ion often becomes formal separates for the bridesmaid, for after - the- wedding wear, or the formal eve- ning gown for the bride, covered up with traditional sleeves and a conservative decolletage that are removable after the ceremony.

One of the most unusual and practical of the new finishes is the bubble-light wool tweed, looking nubby and texturesome, but weighing much less than {ts winterweight counterpart. In keeping with the lightness of this fabric are the pale tones in which it will be seen. Linens, jerseys and silks, too, take on a newly textured appear- ance through either weaving or thnzedimensional prints. When woven in combination, a crocheted or boucle effect is achieved. New cottons look like tweed, silk, wool or linen, depending on the finish, but retain their affinity to soap and water, making them a practical choice. Patent leather appliques on cotton look smart, and are also washable. In coats and suits, brushed sur- faces, silk or orlon and wool blends, light worsteds and zibel- ines, wool crepes and fleeces all spell out the newest Spring fabric news. Fabric news continues in coats and suits, offering surface inter- est with less defined loops and boucle nubs. Pocdles show up in 'tamed' versions, looking almost frothy, due to the large content of mohair. Frosty effects are achieved through the use of white as a background for the pastels and beiges of the season. Zibelines and long-hair fabrics give a smooth look to the texture story, and flannel coatings, doe- skin, suede and worsted jerseys Fabrics For Spring Feature Airy Effect present the bulk of the smooth side of the fabric story, There is a reverse side to the fashion news this Spring, and that is the fabrics that line many of the newest coats, suits and ensembles, as well as their matching blouses. Prints are most often seen with solid color ensembles, in silk, jersey, cotton or linen. In the case of the equally plp- ular print ensemble, the blouse and lining will be solid, in a shade to pick up the predominant color of the print. Silk surahs, shantungs and nubby-textured blends of silk and orlon,' as well as rayons and linens, have a definite place in the Spring into Summer - ward- robe, being especially suited to resisting wrinkles and keeping the wearer cool and well-groomed looking. Hair Styles Take - On a Regal Air Hairstyles, as well as ready-to- wear and accessory fashions, show the influence of the Coronation. These new hair styles reflect the elaborate high dressing of the ear- lier Elizabethan period. The hair is drawn back smoothly from the face with curls piled on top or to- ward the back, and cut short at the nape of the neck. Another style shows the hair drawn back and piled high on the crown with a short, brushed up feather cut at back. These styles are pefect settings for the cor- onet, so popular in Spring millin- ery fasions.
