JEmpire Line Featured In 59 Spring Fashicn The 1959 spring season is char acterized by a return to accepted silhouettes no extremes, no ex 1 cuses, no exaggerations. 'Hus means primarily a fitted waist line, with the fashion news center ing on extremely modified versions of the Empire line. This is generally described as a "lifted line," and most often is combined with fit or shaping at the natural waist. The general en dorsement of the shirtwaist dress is another sign of the return to traditional silhouettes. These are among the general findings of Womens Wear Hally's fashion ed itors in reviewing manufacturers’ spring lines. Big enthusiasm of the Season ! is for the costume, and this means the dress and short Jacket. While some dress and long coat I costomes are seen, jackets : generally are short, loosely shap ed without curves, offered with iiltHleratcly Idgh-waisted skirt | or one-piece dress. The narrow skirt is most popu lar for daytime wear. However, the emphasis on the shirtwaist 'dress, which is often seen with full skirt, has boosted the percen tage for skirt widtlr- Sheaths are often seen with contrasting print or solid tops. Stubbed silks and prints are the favorites everywhere, especially in costumes with brief jackets "Flax silk,” so sheer it has to be lined, is newest. Printed pongee, surah, chiffon, and linen-like types are other favorites. Navy is prominent in very dark shades, often hard to tell from black which itself is considerably higher on the list this spring. In addition to traditional Faster navy and black, sprinkled with lieiges and grays, there is lots of color. Thin woolens have a new character in yellowishgreens, turquoise and melon pinks. Silk and mohair mixtures continue the mohair lw>k. Other woolens are in basket weave, pebble and sheer weaves. Coats anti Suits The basic conservatism that permeates all ready to wear for spring is reflected in a return to fitted and easy straight coats. Among the new features which have won endorsement are: Em pire detailing, when it is very sub tle and very modified; belted suits, conforming to the tendency to clo ser fit; open necklines and wide collars, providing they are not too extreme. Skirt lengths remain about the same for spring. The raised waistline coat, off to a good start this past fall and winter goes on as the big fashion for Easter. Kelts, sashes, draw strings and multiple seaming will do the lifting job. Moving in is the fitted silhouette. The fitted bodice of many of the Empire coats and the sure sign of a waistline, even though high, have paved the way for renewed interest in fitted coats. Many of them release short rounded full skirts, others follow sheath lines like the dresses to be worn under them. This is a spring for a gently wi dened top silhouette to lie expres sed mainly in huge collars and shoulder seams dropped down on the upper arm. There are still many collorless coats with airy set-away necklines. Suits emerge with a brand new identity for spring because of en thusiastic endorsement of the cos tume look. More suit people, Wo men's Wear Daily finds, are going into dressmaking to produce the costume of dress and jacket. Along with this, the prevailing raised waistline detail will identify new Easter suits. This will be an Easter parade of short, jackets with big cape-like collars, often shaped and puffed by darts. Suit necklines dip to a V or low’ U encircled by elongated or draped collars and scarf arrange ments. There is a noticeable in terest in belts, leather or fabric, to define the high, lowered or hip top waistline. Many slim skirts rise high with wide waistline bands; others are gathered for new waistline soft ness released below short jackets. The double breasted line is a strong factor. Sportswear Sportswear designers, aware of the difficluty of relating the form al Empire line to the easy casual look that sportswear Implies, use every optical illusion possible to suggest the silhouette without act ually indenting under the bosom. Tabs, buttons and yoke interest are the chief devices. The blouson is strengthening for spring, Recording to Women’s Wear Daily. This easy shape of fashion combines the demand for fit while retaining the newer re laxed styling. Separates are eas ily adaptable to the blouson. The popular overblouse contin ues In coordinated groups of skirts, pants and shorts. Larger collars and the curved, dropped shoulder line will convey the look of top width. Peter Pan collars in outsized versions set away from the neck are gaining in importance. Color news concentrates on the new yellowed greens, such as sau teme, lettuce, apple, cucumber and deeper vibrant emeralds often in irints on white grounds. Navy sus ~\ins popularity in the casual dres ses. “The” blue gf spring is clear turquoise. Knitwear returns to a more fit ted line in spring dresses and en sembles. Interpretations for spring vary between the relaxed sheath, waist fitted and optional Empire managed with a curved ribcage belt or self tie. Jacket-type swea ters in mohair, chiefly looped, ad vance as casual cover-ups. Significant for both active and lounge wear, pants are mention ed in all lengths. Walking shorts continue strongest in Jamica and Bermuda lengths, but there are al so votes for Vapri and ankle len gths. Spring Millinery While tall crowns and vivid co lor continues as dominating fac tors in millinery, Women’s Wear Daily notes that the newest en try m the spring fashion picture is.he brim, llrim.#appear in many i forms, from skinny inch-wide ver 1 sums to deep brims wliich descend to shodow the eyes or curve up ward reiterating the lines of high crowns. With ready-to-wear hemline* and waistline* *till on the up *wiug, high crown* retain their top po*ition and add new dlinen mIoii to elii**le shape* *ueti a* *ailors and breton*. Tall cone shapes pulled toward the back of the head; high pill boxes, towering toques and tur bans and rounded i>s eonical sa[H'd crowns all share the spot light. CkH-hes with turned-down brims are numerous, varying from face-framing styles to wide Orien tal lantern shapes, occasionally sippled and laden with flowers. Flower hats in every shape from head-hugging cups to heightened wigs to deep cloces are every where. Flowers are also used ex tensively as a trimming for large shapes. Simple trimming is the decree for the majority of spring hats. Kmphasls is placed on smooth straws, such as ballibuntl, ilan and leghorn with new softened qualities. Shamrocks 1-14-3 Chances are (he blarney will be as thick as the shamrocks when the Irish honor St. Patrick Tues day. But the original "blarney" was an Irish chieftain who proved that you can still win even if you lose. When the castle of Blarney was besieged by the English, the lord of the manor concluded an armi stice with the English comman der. According to the research dc partment ol The World Book En cyclopedia, in* promised to sur render the old homestead to an English garrison in Cork on a cer tain date. The Englishman waited polite ly for the terms of the armistice to be fulfilled and waited and waited. The Lord of Blarney held him off with promises and flattery, un til the commander became the laughingstock of the court of the court of England. And the name "Blarney'’ ironi cally took its place in the "Eng lish" language, as a synonym for sweet talk. Material St. Patrick, who "found Ire land all heathen and left It all Christian,” founded more than 300 churches and baptized more than 120,OttO persons, according | to The World Rook Encyclopedia. There are more people of Irish i descent in the l' S than there are ; in Ireland. The World Hook En cyclopedia says New York City has the largest Irish population of any city in the world.
