5 r ( : i H s - ,? t . . ! V .i-;-j v. I PAGE FOUR THE DAILY NEDRASKAN, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 13, 1937 Grand March Will Scinlillale Willi Sequins on Tulle. Net Flowing Chiffon Contrasts With Sleek, Fitted Satin at Ball. The glitter of scintillating se quins will spread a diffused glow in tie grand march this year on the romantic net, tulle, chiffon of the season's latest formals. The most voluminous skirts and the If barest of shoulders will contrast the poured in sheath of crepe and the elegance of brocade. And on more than l.alf the gowns for the formal season's debut the tiny spangles will sparkle, sprinkled over the skirt, plastering the entire bodice, strapping the shoulders or banding the hem, or just adding a touch of gaiety. Their gleam will be reflected in the shine of slipper satin or the molten metal of lame, dramatic in accordion pleats or halter neck. Demure sophistication will be rep resented by luxurious brocade with a high neck and Gone With the Wind skirt. Scarlet or Josephine. So you are either molded and modern, or a female with a wicked glitter, or you are Victorian, either in the romantic bouffant of Scarlett O'Hara or with the high watsted, deep decolletage glamour of Napoleon's Josephine. You can be saintly in chiffon, a siren in satin or sequins or a little bit of both. In the romantic mood are dozens of possibilities. A particularly lovely creation in black net has an infinitesimal bodice, shirred and accentuated by a high waist. Mists of rayon net float out from the waist, polka dotted, if you like, with silver sequins made to swirl to a waltz . Laquered Net Redingote. Or take the same skirt pale blue or gray and top it with a deep cut bodice covered with irrldescent sequins. Lead a gypsy gaiety with a bolero embroidered in gold se quins and pearls, or simply plas tered with sequins of black, blue, red or green. For individuality, find a brown net redingote lac quered with gold metal flowers. Formula for a proposal: The sweet feminity of a white tulle bouffant skirt, a dropped shoulder, daringly-low decolletago (over which our lady can modestly blush) and a corselet waistline banded thrice with deep, true blue velvet ribbon. Formulas for a dramatic en trance: An empire gown in gold lame with a corded halter neck and moulede accordion-pleated figure, clinging smoothly and rhythmic ally all the way to the floor. A princess gown of slipper sat in, daringly draped across the bosom with huge, jeweled clasps, and with a full skirt sweeping regally behind. A seductively shirred chiffon in two or even three color contrast, criss-crossed at the low neckline with sequins or haltered with a garland of velvet gardenias. Icy-White Satin. The height of sophistication may appear in an icy-white, supple satin, perhaps accordion-pleated, but more likely draped gracefully in a rather narrow skirt encircled with huge cord between ruffled tiers. Other puffed-sleeved taffetas may be adorned with amusing vei vet bows. A slinky sheath of crepe may be hung with fringe in short lengths or from the waist to tbe floor; if black, top it with lame or meal and satin brocade, in say, glacier blue. Extremely tail ored, such a pencil-thin crepe gown might have pockets of se quins, or banded around sleeve or hip or may be completely covered with them. No girl should be at loss to find the gown to suit her, for every personality has a choice, from sweet naivete to sleek so phistication. Facial Experts Name Eyes Vital Personality Factor Authorities Advise Artificial Shading in Heavy Tones For Eye Lashes. The eyes have it, say the dic tators of fashion, in the current discussion about what feature of a face determines a woman to be beautiful, glamorous, or cool. These eyes may be blue, brown, gray, or even bespectacled, but ways and means can be found to make them the all-important. This is especially easy when they are set in a face eager with antici pation for the military ball and the coming formal season. For the ball, sparkling eyes should be encased by lustrous eye lashes and natural brows, the heavier the handsomer. Unlucky lasses with scarcely an eyela-sh to their names or those who have lashes that resemble a row of milpped straw need not worry, for someone has Invented the eyelash curler (God bless him) and new kinds of creamy mascara add length and luster. Wear your eye brows natural In shape but see that the natural way is neat Beauty doesn't depend upon chiselled features and goddess-like proportions. Given a clear skin fair body proportions, and good carriage, a Hollywood expert states that he could make any woman beautiful. The clear skin must have a powder that will make it have a Dresden quality, the lipstick should have a blue overtone, the cheeks a slight tin of color, and the eyeshadow should he the color of the eyes, although blue shades are good for even brown-eyed girls. Fling the curls high for the military ball and the officers will love it! There Is something un canny about a change of coiffure that makes life take on a new meaning, it brings the same sen sation to the feminine heart that a new hat or sweater will bring, Up, up, up go the ringlets at every angle that fertile minds of stylists can create, but there is always room for rugged Individualism and some will wear their locks falling to their shoulders and attend the ball in the page-boy style that the Nebraska coeds have welcomed ' Into their hearts. White Tic Attire Becomes Popular With College Man Today the "white tie" outfit more than ever before is becom ing an integral part of the well dressed man's wardrobe.

Jl up Fashionable Young Men Sport Gold Watches On Heavy Chains. 'The return to gracious living" sounds like a line cribbed from a silverware ad, but it applies none the less antlv to the strong come back that is currently being staged by men's jewelry. More smartly attired men are wearing jewelry today than for some years past, and what's more, this jewelry has picked up in quality as well as in quantity. Especially interesting is the re-j a . . . . r A lurn 01 ine pocKeiwatcn. un to be gTandpop who wore the heavy gold watch chains over his buldging waistline, but now us the voune. handsome, "coiutcn man who sports one of them in the waistcoat pocket of his town suit or in the watch pocket or his oin ner lacket. The increase of formal wear for day and evening nas caused men to reserve their wrist watches for sports wear, country wear and travel or similar occa sions. Perhaps you may feel con spicuous in one but, remember that they are tops in men s fashions. Favorite types of watch chains are those having heavy bold links of gold, and those of simple design Monogram Cufflinks. For that matter all gold jewelry is at its best this year in simple design. Because of the revival of the shirt with French cuffs, there is also a general trend for the return of cuff links. Some of the smartest cufflinks will have personal mono grams of cut out letters, altho many men will wear links of a smart plain pattern ana be as wen dressed as those who prefer initi aled shirt "fasteners." Another addition to the mascu line wardrobe, which reminds us, reluctantly, of the good ole diaper days, is the gold safety pin which is worn in the collar and fre. quently, during warmer days, pinned to the bottom of a tie to keep it in place. Even tho' it would be a much cheaper proposition to swipe one of mother's best safety pins, it wouldn't be the best idea, for these safeties are supposed to be one of the many signs of the fashionable dresser, and not in tended to offend your lady love. Foxy Stickpins. . Several years ago in England, the sporty motif stick-pin got off to a good start, but -America didn't approve so readily, making its popularity wane. However, it is among us again, men, and this time we like it, definitely! The pins being worn today in this country and abroad by the fashion leaders are quite expen sive, because of the gamebird, race horse, fox or other sporting fig. ures being made up in diamonds. But it is hoped by us commoners that someday the popular accept ance of this pin will later lead to more of them ana more inexpen sive prices. All we need is pa tience, and when they do come t the local stores be sure to investigate. CAMPUS STUDIO Thursday. CORN COBS. In fuu uniform, 4:45. mmmkkA SNOWDRIFT WM and t!W eVIH ?
