Feminine prints
still im for spring

IF SPRING to you means flow-
ers, you may have to hunt a lit-
tle for them this season.

By Carol Crenna

Flowers aren't flourishing in
fashion since no-color neutrals and
simplified solids are making the
loudest statement. That doesn't
mean that they are nowhere to be
found or that they have gone out of
style, however.

Even those who have enthusiasti-
cally taken hold of the new muted
natural shades and are layering them
in wild abandon may need 4 little
color pick-up further into the season.

After all, what is spring without
feminine prints?

Bouquets of flowers cover quali-

hip pink, cinnamon rose, chick bird,
salatily and orleander,

Linen, flax, raw silk as well as
crinkled rayon and hive are shown in
loose, relaxed pieces and slim
revealing ones,

Dresses, skirts, pants, vests,
blouses, petticoats and jumpsuits are
combined in the collections.

Detailing is said to be Cormett
Trading’s trademark for quality.

You will find lots of carved but-
tons, ounce georgette collars, trail-
ing rose embroidery, finely embroi-
dered or hand-crocheted buttons,
crochet lace edging, pintucks and
pleating, cutwork, old-fashioned
Victorian collars, soft shawl collars
and careful stitchwork.
