FASHION
NOTES
FOR
MILADY

By Freddye Henderson
for ANP

Although Easter comes rather early, the fashion dice are already cast for the Easter Parade. Early buying in the nation's stores reveals some definite trends in Milady's preference for Easter fashions, and points plainly to the fashion types that will take the spotlight.

Perennial navy, beige seem to be the top colors, and the slim silhouette and the high-waisted look, whether in cropped jackets stopping at the bustline, or seaming or belting in Empire styling, are unmistakable signs of the season.

The ensemble of long coat and dress, or slim princess dress with abbreviated jacket emerges an Easter favorite. This is reflected in children's wear.

Small furs in new versions of tiny jackets or miniature caplets will play supporting roles.

Straight is the line for Easter skirts.

The Easter hat, stealing parade favors through the years, this year will set photographers agog as a new flamboyancy tops the spring costume.

Yes, the Easter parade promises to be lively and varied.
