COLOURS THAT COUNT
Fashion has definitely listed the colours that count for summertime
Daffodil is in the foremost line, and sufficient tribute to its smartness is the difficulty of obtaining yellow materials. Another chic colour is eachou, a greyish-yellow tint, not quite so formidable as mustard, although the latter Is very fashionable when trimmed with darker material. Mastic has come into its own again, but although resembling putty, it contains a warmer brown. Navy and lighter blue have a place in every Paris collection. A new turquoise is paler than the greenyblue shade we have been used to, and spotted navy, or navy trimmed with sky-blue are all in the picture. Black and pink is a popular alliance, and pinkish-mauve, apricot, flame and raspberry are popular. In chiffon cafe-au-lait is a favourite, as it goes well with lace, and a pale pink is an excellent foundation for all the parchment and blonde shades of nlnon or lace. The colour in the heart of a rose has been snared to make a pink satin pale enough for bridal use.
