hae ' r BA FE OE TUM, Teceeten Jer? 20-1008 GOING - AWAY SUIT So right to wear for the start of a 1966 honeymoon and so new it is to be pre- viewed this week by fashion editors in Montreal. It is of two-faced wool in wheat and cream shades. The skirt is seam-stitched and the jacket has a plastron front and built-up neckline. Bridal Flowers Chosen Early A bride planning her wedding naturally considers her gown first, but soon after, the flowers should be discussed. Flowers are part of a wedding and care should be taken in achieving complete color harmony. When you visit your florist, take a sketch of your gown and those of your bridesmaids, as well as samples of the materials to show the color and texture. Interflora florists are skilled and helpful and are always pleased to give advice on a suit- able bouguet and posies. The flowers should be ordered as soon as possible and certainly no later than two weeks before the wedding. MODEST PRICE As surprising as it may seem, modestly priced flowers -will not always make the cheapest bouquets. Many flowers-- anemones, delphiniums and fre- esias--take much more time to work into: a bouquet than say orchids or carnations. The design is extremely im portant because the color and shape of a boquet should har- monize perfectly with your gown and help to highlight all your good points; and it is really this design, exclusive to you, that you are paying for. Today's bouquets are small, light and fragile and are design- ed to look pretty from the front and side as you walk down the aisle. The handle must be China, Silver Welcome Gifts Additional pieces of the bride's china pattern will be a welcome gift, if you are invited to a wedding and don't know what to buy. The same thing goes for her silver. She may have bought only the essential pieces of china or silver in an open stock pattern, and the sal- ad forks, butter knives, tablé spoons, etc., that she doesn't have will complete her set. Veg- etable bowls, platters, covered dishes, and extra cups and sau- long enough to hold comfortably.

The need for a good figure was made evident: each time a shapely model undulated down the runway at the Pitti Palace Friday night during the open- ing showings of boutique and knitwear spring and summer collections for buyers and the fashion press. Well-bronzed as well as pell- rounded were the models for Castillo, Gibo's and Lucretia knitwear houses. Gibo's girls were in an Egyp- tian mood with spare, sequined bikinis held together by vertical T-bands.: Long linen skirts snapped onto or wrapped around the hip - slung bikinis bands, not really covering much, ; With these, as well as tensel- fringed knickers, and slick at- home pants with horizontal pands of coral shell glitter, these Florentine ladies of the Nile wore matching upper-arm slave braceletes, garlands of fringe at their ankles and on their feet. Lucretia's ladies wore back- less dresses, anchored to the sides with string. Castillo's models padded out barefooted-- and generally bare elsewhere-- in bright-hued bikinis with dia- mond - patterned diapers tied around them. The: bold diamond pattern is a theme carried through the Castillo collection, even to double diamonds painted on the cheek bones of the models. There were V-cut edges on skirts or shifts, zig-zag diamond prints on slinky - knit hostess gowns,. and diamond scarves anywhere they could be tied. Castillo also was for squares --the hard-edgeg square-within- a-square kind popular in con- temporary art: With Samar, the geometric game was checker- boards. Big and little blocks of alternating colors formed the pattern for scarves tying at the shoulder, skirts, and over party pants. Squares pieced together like and dresses. the doublets of a king's herald. Spring Fashions, Italian Style Stress Well-Rounded Figure gas one of designer Albertino's contributions to the bold fashion picture. Sometimes smaller- sized ones combined with stripes to make a particularly jazzy number. Whatever the: angles, the knit costumes stuck close te the curves: since knit dresese ara' really only @ver-grown sweat- ers. On Noni Sport knitwear mod- els, the dresses went tp all lengths. When they stopped far short of the knees, the ladies wore Enee socks with white- vinyl baby-doll shoes. Often the knee sacks were Gufied te match the costume, or the leg stripes were. the same as a striped portion of the dress. ry Aa Oe A ive e Interiors e Picture Framing a © Custom Furniture 1188 Simooe &. $. 728-7271 = ---- She Ema nd GRR For You At...
