Can Correct Beauty Faults Choose fashion jewelry to help correct beauty "faults", as 'well as complements costumes, recommends the Jewelry Indus- try Council. Round faces, for example, will seem more oval, if earrings are slender instead of square or round. Fingers will look longer and more tapered if the fashion ring selection has an oval or diamond-shaped stone, Wide bracelets are flattering to thin arms; a full neck ap- pears more slender if the neck- lace is a long single strand with pendant. Whatever the choice, there's an exciting array available at jewelry or department stores this season. Juniors Set New Trend In Fashions Junior fashions are springing into the new season with plenty of news, plenty of variety, plenty of drama. PARTY LINE Little girls choose their favorite party line: A-line, double - breasted coat with belted back. In Milliken's foam - laminated "Mirette"' fabric. Sports Favor Patternless Coats Unpatterned spring and summer sport coats have taken' a definite upswing this lyear. Patternless wools, silks, cottons, linen blends, denims, and man-made fibers are among the season's new fash- jon leaders. -- The plain shades, frequently with textured surface weaves are made in both traditional and contemporary models and the colors range from deep navy blues and blacks to pale pastels and off-whites. Men who favor the bright gold plaids, checks and stripes in their casual coats will find no lack of those, _ either. Brighter madrases on lighter grounds, big district checks, blazer stripes and classic glen plaids. are all present. Traditionalists will like the newly developed combination weaves' incorporating alter- nating tracks of. seersucker and denim. Regular seersuck- ers, will score again in both) stripes and plaids. All the leading spring ideas); are interpreted youthfully for junior sizes, and, if anything, the current style trends are even more advanced, more dar- ing when it comes to the young-| set wardrobes. Coats for the junior figure primarily take to skinny lines, with fashion detailing that's often in advance of regular-size styling. Hip-riding belts of leath- er mark low-waisted looks; Nor- folk belts thread in and out; softness develops in scalloped edges, clustered ball buttons. Straight and true and tailored is the message for spring's double - breasted junior coats. Single or double closings are a matter of individual choice, with ample selection in either style} on hand. Summing up junior suits, the basic style direction is shape in front, ease in back for jackets, plus skirts that go into motion. Juniors, once devotees of the| short suit jacket, are going in for more and more fingertip and tunic lengths. | Pleats all around, still in the| picture, get competition from skirts with rolled or boxy pleats --just one or two. A-shapes develop in both coats and suit skirts. - Easy shifts and skimmers lead the junior dress array, followed closely by the femininized shirt- dress. Whatever the _ style, there's softness everywhere -- ruffles, flounces, lace, fabrics on the ladylike, lovely side. Sportswear, a special junior favorite, is young and lively, ranging from softened classics to styles with the ye-ye and mod influences. Color, throughout junior wardrobes, reflects the brightest and boldest shades of spring -- intense apricot, green, peach, lemon, celery, pink ice.
