Upon your height, weight and build depends the style you should select. Skirts and jackets are longer, backs are flare, skirts are straight and cutaway suits are taking the day. Bustle backs, dolman sleeves, wedgies and platform shoes are still in style. The drape is lagging. The hats are taking us back more and more to grandma’s day, and not bad either. In fact most fashions have a trend toward the gay nineties. Shorties are still in style; but instead of the three-quarter lengths, hip lengths are more pop ular. They will do a lot for the short, slightly plump miss. Before you select your styles, study your figure, height, and weight.’ Select what does most for you no matter what the fash ion trend is. _ Patronise Our Advertisers UNION SHOE SHOP 1018 "O" STREET 2-7887 Navy Denim Jeans For sports and general utility wear.
