Japonica. Fuchsia. Beige, Brown. Navy. Black and all the popular pastels are harmonized in suits, coats and frocks at the Smart Set Shoppe on Third avenue, With hats, gloves and bags comatch. The suits are especially noteworthy. with hymo lapels and zip- per skirts, and made of striped wor- steds, serges and couvert gabardine. This is definitely a suit year, and those at the Smart, Set, with the new longer jackets and popular “comfy” pockets cleverly follow the designs created by such great designers as Lanvin, S-chia- parelli, and New York and Hollywood designers. They will suit every figure, and will flatter mm the slim and me stouter woman as she joins the Easter parade this year. To accentuate the freshness of spring, pert blouses are made of assort- ed paisleys and sheers, in pastel shades. brighter colours of the "colour-minded" fashion world, and in Romany and candy stripes. These blouses. which are featured in large display at the Smart Set Shoppe. will change the suit to a,glorious spring “tonic,” that tonic which every woman requires as the winter months slip into spring. In keeping with the blossoming out-doors, the fashionable woman dons a smart suit. and changes its tailored appear- ance with bright blouses that bring spring to her heart. On the colder days. she will finish her suit ensemble, with a bcucle or imported tweed coat, choosing either a box style or a fitted coat to match her personality. These coats are shown in pastels and colours at the Smart Set Shoppe, with the newest designs in sleeves. cut. and finish.
