This seasons bridal fashions are made to order for the girl whos dreaming of being the traditional white bride wi h all the appropriate finery. Layers and tiers of gossamer fabrics have been molded into heirloom type gowns. They are romantic looking with their trains and . generous skirts. Detailing plays an important role In the new gowns, too. Youll find collars scalloped, embroidered or appliqued for exquisite effects. Sleeves may be long and close-fittinor they may be merest puffs for the decidedly summery dresses. The bride who wonders about the clothing is highly favored because it June Bride V.V ?.

Then the dress can be used easily as a formal. Short bridal dresses are seen frequently, too, and theyre both lovely and practical . When they can be Just as romantic looking as the long gowns. , Gowns with a deep decolletage are modestly treated with a bit of lace that can be removed if therfress is to be used for evening. Another design uses a strapless wedding gown d net which comes with a bolero that is1 slipped on for the ceremony ahd removed for wear as a dinner or dancing dress. Head gear is much simpler than in many former seasons. Juliet caps are very popular when made of well-style- d, long-sleeve- sheerest materials. Variety of Materials Available for Gowns The bride who wants to be mar rled in the white satin tradition will choose that as her material .for a wedding gown since there are m'any of these available. For those who want to go into other materials, theres a wide choice. Lace is exceedingly popular this gown season, not only for the l as for mother the but brides itself, For fabricsthat well give frothy the bride an ethereal look, the girl may choose mousseline, marquis ette, nylon tulle or organdie. Though skirts are full most bodices and waistlines are molded snugly to the figure. The wide look at thetop Is used in many of the gowns with their big bertha collars, or the lace which outlines the bodice, with sheerest and frothiest of materials coming up to the neck line which may be decorated with a ty-ida- necklace of traditional pearls. Young looking gowns achieve much of this appearance with apron effects which are highly popular this year. Naturally a separate apron is not used on the gown, as it is on dresses with the same effect, but is the result of using lace to outline a feature such as this. Those brides who plan a smal wedding may choose from organdie batiste and organza dresses in white as well as pastels. These brides will even find some satin dresses in the shorter styles,Jif they look for them V These may button down back or front depending upon the style of the dress. The sleeves may be long and slender, full and long, or tiny but puffed. Circular and bouffant skirts are used, but the waist Is small and moulded. Bridesmaids' Dresses Are Light, Billowing Most of the bridesmaids dresses now seen are light in coloring and billowing in silhouette. They range from those that look almost like the brides gowns to those that bear no resemblance whatsoever to the bridal gown and look more like afternoon dresses for a garden party. There's a great variety in length, the short type being favored. However, they are rarely shorter than just above the ankle. Feminine in the extreme, the bridesmaids dresses are worked out in organdie, net and marquisette. Here, too, youll find chiffon gnd embroidered organdie One of the most popular details in the attendants' dresses is the use of the fichu or fichu-capelstyle collar that is detachable so the' dress may be worn for informal dancing easily. Held gear may be simply a picture hat in one of the gossamer fabrics that go well with the dress, flowers or small head hugging hats. The overall result is simplicity with exquisite femininity. Include Essentials In Tronssean Wardrobe The clothes the bride takes on her honeymoon depends largely on where its to be spent, but there are some items that will, fill the basic needs. First on the list is the going away costume itself. The bride will want to look lovely as she departs from her guests, and fashion is very helpful as well as practical Suits are popular, but equally so are the dress and redingote combinations, with dress and coat made of matching materials. Linen is a good choice, especially in the bleached shades. The sleeveless or capelet stylec dress may be worn as a casual dress without its matching coal and the latter, of course, may be worn with other clothing. One or two informal and very casual dresses may be included in the wardrobe! depending upon where you go.

But in the background of these delicious forbidden affairs there lurks a piper, and in my long life I never knew one of them that did not end in a painful experience before he was paid. Love Changed Life Take the case of one Madeleine Firkin, who lives in a Long Island city, Madeleine is 37. Some six years ago, restless and dissatisfied, she met the director of a church activity, a sort of guidance group for boys. After some .months of work together, sheand this man became lovers. In her letter she says that this love entirely changed her life, she grew kinder and more understanding with her husband and daughters, she experienced Milk Production Milk production in the U. S. in full ' happiness for the first time. March was the highest for any Philip, the man, was burdened with an invalid wife, who lived March on record. until a year ago; Madeleines hus band died four years ago, without Carps Longevity Carp are longest living fish. she says, ever suspecting her of anything irregular. She and Philip They live up to 150 years. v , now being free, there is no bar to marriage between these lovers. No bar, that is, except Philip's change of attitude. Please believe, says Madeleines letter, that this deep, true love of ours never has harmed . anyone. We both were 'reluctant to enter into it; it was not the result of an impulsive youthful rush, but irresistable mutual devotion. My daughters, now 12 and 14, have never suspected it, and although Philips son has been aware of the situation for some time, he has always been kind and friendly to me. It is this sons wife who has taken it upon herself to interfere. Her mother lives with them; they are devout church people, and very conventional Once or twice in the year since his wifes death I have suggested marriage to Philip, but he always has said that he is pleased enough with things as they are; that someday well slip off and get married without any planning. ' Now, however, he seems to be slipping into a very comfortable life with his son, the sons wife, and her mother. They play card games in the evenings and all go to church together on Sundays,. I see him much less often, and when he does come he takes great notice of my girls and keeps them in the group. HEART BROKEN . . "Mrs. Norris, I was a heartbroken, disillusioned woman when I met Philip, I have given him six years of devotion. My heart will break if this is to be the end. Can you suggest to me an argument that will convince him that the honorable thing to do is to make Jne his wife? Surely for of high principle there is no other course." Madeleine, this is only . a slight variation on the familiar theme of a burned-ou- t love affair. They all end this way. Philip is done with love as far you are concerned, or no domestic comfort would keep him from offering you marriage. He is not the first man who has gratefully escaped. Dont deceive yourself that those girls of yours are not entirely aware of what has been going on. They well may be one of the reasons why Philip doesnt want to follow up the affair. They could not possibly respect a stepfather who has been for years so flag--ran- tly a whited sepulcher, and any fatherly advice or care he ever attempted to give them would ring very false in their ears. , n -- Released by WNU Features |
