YOUTH IN FASHION
The quality of youthfv.lness is the guiding principle behind fashion today. While a smart woman will gladly relinquish the short skirt and the low waist-line, she will never give up a youthful effect. Nor need she. Fashion designei’3 have made an art of studying the natural beauty of the body. With this ideal before them they are able to emphasise lines or curves that indicate youth, while leading the eye by diagonals and crossings away from anything that might suggest age. Hats, too, are more youthful than they have been for many months. The off-the-forehead line and the softening effect of a little hair at the side of the face (a detail which Paris now sponsors) accent this quality.
