into femininity

FEMININITY. DO you buy it? This spring designers are
treating women like ladies, adding ultra-feminine
touches to fabrics and silhouettes, and customers can’t
get enough of them.

The return of the ‘40s and out the woman in all of us.
"50s to the fashion spotlight Femininity is shown in cut as
brings a renewed interest in well as color. Backs are bared,
romance, cleavage is subtly revealed, and

Ladylike dresses and suits are arms of often left uncovered,

given nostalgic touches to bring

adding a decidedly provocative

edge that is kept under control
by the sweet and serene fabrics.

The luxury is in the classic
lines of the clothing that will
let you look like a lady for
several seasons to come.

An Easter parade of chemise
dresses, sheaths, sun dresses,
jumpers and softly fitted, flaring
dress styles are shown.

COMPLEMENT THIS SEASON’S FASHIONS
WITH ROMANTIC ACCESSORIES

To complement the ladylike clothing, romantic accessories and
jewelry are a must. Hearts, flowers and ropes of pearls are the key
influences in jewelry, which carries these shapes from earrings to
bracelets.

Stolen from the past are chokers at the neck and clusters of
brooches placed at a shoulder or lapel which combine’ rhinestones
and semi-precious stones with gold and silver metals.

Long strings of pearls look new again when wrapped four or five
times around the neck or the wrist. They are sometimes shown in
iridescent or metallic pastel colors.

Straw hats block out the sunlight and bring back simpler times,
shown with sashes and wide brims or more sophisticated smaller
and neater shapes, even with a tulle biush.
