FASHIONS Each season fashions always seem to be a popular topic of conversation and the present season is no exception. Clothes for spring, 1968, show design ers assembling parts, pattern and colors for the great new "put-together" look. Silhouette, color, and acces sories all interplay to create today's fashion mood. There is something suitable for every figure, every age, every per sonality. It's a time for indi vidual expression. The Prettygirl look seems to sum up what is in store for spring/summer, 1968. The Romantic Shape?done much closer-to-the-body. The Romantic Touch?done with fluted cuffs and hemlines. The Romantic Fabric?done with delicate prints right out of a Victorian picture book, lots of flowers, frills and lace. This is Just a way of say ing that the fashions will be more feminine this spring. SILHOUETTE: Silhouettes are gently shaped close to the Let Us Serve Your Needs Savings ? Loans ? Trusts ?

The gar ment Is fitted at the bodice and flared at the hemline. The LOOK OF THE 30'S will be very prevalent inthesprlngfashlon? the look of softness and femi ninity. With It is a comeback for the waist often accepted with loose belts. Dresses will be shapelier, often fitted and narrow at the shoulders flow ing into softer looking skirts that swing because they are pleated, gathered or sllghtlv flared. BLOUSES: There will be a big comeback of the BLOUSE OR SHIRT, fitted and feminine. Many will have high bands of lace at the throat; fitting close under the chin. Lace, ruffles, embroidery and jabots may be found on the blouses. All this has called for a return of the stick pins, bar pins, and anti que broaches. SUITS: Suits for spring will have a softened effect, coor dinated with blouses or vests. These suits show a new kind of relaxed femininity with the dirndl skirt, the pleated or slightly flared skirt. The jackets may be long or short. COLLAR: The Cadet collar is the newest type of collar on Jackets. You will also see the Buster Brown collar as a fash ion item. VEST SUIT: Vest, shirt and skirt are making a grand en trance this spring in the form of the VEST SUIT. This is an ideal way to tie the blouse and skirt together into the COOL CHIC look (pulled together look) CAPE: The cape, capesuit, and gathered cape will be fash ion news. In some, there will be flare over flare in the little capes over miniskirts. SHIRT SHIFTS: Shirt shifts and skimmers continue to be a favorite of girls with other than perfect figures. These are great for casual or dress-up occasions. A bright scarf at the neckline adds interest to this near-classic style. HEMLINES: The skirts will continue to be short for spring. Casual skirts are worn three Inches above the knee only If the legs are slim. These are best left for the younger set. The "midi" length (mid-calf) will reappear mainly in evening or at-home clothes. Some de signers show them 10 to 12 Inches from the floor or about 5 inches below the knee. Hem lines on women's daytime cloth es will remain above the knee for a while longer.
