Color to Run Wild in New Dress Suits By Edith Laslo. Comes the season for colors to run rampant and run riot they shall with the new dress suits. Duffy pinks, kelly greens and but tercup yellow-all are to be found in the classic shirtwaists, sweat ers and accessories used to enliven spring suit wardrobes. According to the masculine eye" nothing looks better than a good looking tailored suit, stockings and heels. Trim, neat and shipshape is their comment. Neat little business numbers in the glen plaid line, with trim la pels and long torso line also dou ble for date duty. Smart lapel pins to attract attention are the added touch to complete the smart suit picture. Alligator shoes and gloves complete the ensemble that can take dictation in an office, curry favor on campus, and receive the plaudits of the boyfriend when dancing at the Turnpike. Lightweight Wool Popular. Box pleated lightweight wool suits step in for considerable ac- claim. Nice work, if you can get them, what with the wool short age and all. But they are certain ly worth doling out the shekels for, as they last and last and are always good. The best investment in wools this season is in a con servative color since wool is in creasingly hard to get and the suit must last for more than one sea son. However, conservative suits are the background for any fash ion frivolity that strikes your eye in the accessory line. Man-tailored wool suits are the best bets 'cause that masculine influence in wom en's clothes is here to stay. Strictly speaking, one does not ordinarily think of silk suits when confronted with the word suits. But there they are and glad are the women because of them. The dream of date dresses, silk suits hit the acme of feminine fashion fads. They lack only the versatil ity of the wool suit, but more than make up for this seeming fault in their utter femininity. Also, unlike wool and gabardine, silk suits can be had in gay prints. TLfilitorV OII1TQ T A mflTpn Thp lYIAn is a good policy to follow. Defi nitely it makes the men feel good to see a spick and span nwliUiy gal, in fact, they probably hope they'll draft them. But be it mili tary modes or frilly sheer silks, whatever they're made of, we want suits, suits and more suits. A) I I , T .
