IN EIGHTY WAYS”
By Adrian S. Bowers, Home Demonstration Agent

Japan, Thailand, India, Hawaii, j
Capri, the Caribbean — will set ■
the scene for fabrics, prints and
patterns.

lightness and relaxation, will I
pave the way for the newest
trends. Sleeveless garments are
the style for evening and day- !
time wear, with the one-shoulder
look predominant in sundresses, J
evening wear and bathing suits. ।
The overblouse is an important!
fashion feature appearing every

and texture. Cotton eyelet (from i
batiste to pique) will be all im- i

poplin, moire, satins, sharkskin, 1
wash and wear, tickings and (
other exciting fashion fabrics 1
will be styled in the most becom- (
