8 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Tuesdoy, August 30, 1960 Children's Color Story Of "And pulled out a plum" ,, ,! shapes up as the answer to the children's color story for this new back-to-school season, Brass, a greenish-gold tint is also highly popular, as both of these shades show off best in the quaintly old-fashioned dresses the smart school-miss will be wear: ing, Eyelet, black braid or bright rickrack trim, flared cuffs, full sleeves, and pinafore and apron Season {open skirt season in favorite | plaids and solids, Outerwear means coats, and surprisingly enough for the youngest school goer, most often a dressy coat! The past few years have shown that dressy coats lead with car coats following, This means a two-part coat story, a dressy version and a casual version, most often a car-coat, effects are all seen in dresses | that are sweetly reminiscent of | bygone days, These styles only serve fo] highlight a trend in children's | clothing that has become more pronounced with every season, Manufacturers are definitely ca- tering to the desire of the young- | est school-girl to look "dressed- up", However, they have f(empered the styles by creating them in| modern fabrics and combinations that are geared to today in their | easy-care, easy-wear character | istics, | Cottons and dridry miracle | blends are still the fabrics used almost exclusively for children's | school-time dresses | In keeping with the return lo vesterday, velveteen in rich pur- | ples, reds, blues, and greens | are way and ahead the favorite | for her "best dress', Enhanced with eyelet, lace or embroidery trim they can turn even a "tom- boy" into a little princess, The sportswear story is like, vet unlike the casual wear preferred by her big sister, Like -- in that sweaters and skirts are popular, unlike in that the noticeably "shaggy" look has been refined to the casually simple appear- ance that young sis prefers, Brushed surface wools and knits rate high in sweaters, while skirts take to pleats of every con. celvable type, Cluster pleats, box pleats, butterfly pleats, knife pleats, stitched-to-the-hip pleats | and loose pleats make it a wide- However, with the prevalence of snow-suits in colder areas, given a choice, kid sis will invari- ably choose a dressy coat! Fleeces, orlons and pile fab- ries prevail in princess, and semi- fitted lines, which go so well with her velveteen party dress or old- fashioned day dress, The smaller the size, the more often leggings are matched to the coat, Fur trims are popular, with beaver, mouton, squirrel and muskrat in natural and dyed shades used to emphaszie the "dressed-up" coat look, There's scarcely a style men- tioned that cannot be found in our local shops, and a little hunting will pay-off in a happy little girl, Good Luggage Gives Service Few items on a student's "needed" list for her stay at col- lege last as long or add as much prestige, as good luggage does!
