Add a felt hat dripping with a fox tail and jam it low on long hair frizzed so it sticks out horizontally. Sounds terrible? Some conservative Paris fashion critics think so. International store buyers are grabbing at the outfits because they aim at young customers. Actually it looks great on the young and slender because the chic French can take any idea and make it look "in." De Luca was one of dozens of small houses showing their wares this week before the big and more conservative guns of Paris fashion unveil their collections next week. Here comes Easter, that joyous season of sunrise worship, high fashion jonquils and daffodils. It's the springtime of life and a renewal of the human spirit. It's Easter eggs and bunny rabbits, the Easter parade and the glad tidings of "Alleluia!" With the exception of Christmas, Easter is, perhaps, the most universally celebrated religious holiday. Here is part ot its fact and mythology as reported by the National Association of Greeting Card Publishers. Easter Sunday is, of course, the day marking Christ s resurrection. It was this sense of "rebirth" that imparted a "new beginning" for the people of many lands and cultures. For years, Easter sunrise services have been held in such landmarks as the Hollywood Bowl in California, the Garden of the Gods in Colorado, the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier at Arlington National Cemetary, the Grand Canyon in Arizona and the Punchbowl d h Spring Rites hood-collar- National Memorial Cemetary in Hawaii. The egg, the traditional Easter symbol of life, was rooted deeply in the lives of the ancient Egyptians, Persians, Phoenicians and Hindus. In English-speakinlands, the coloring of eggs for Easter was a custom that originated in England in the Middle ages. In the reign of Edward I, the king's accountants recorded that 18 pence was spent for coloring eggs in gold leaf in the year 1290. The eggs were distributed to members of the royal household. In medieval England, priests blessed Easter eggs which were then exchanged as gifts by friends. In Poland, Easter eggs are traditionally decorated with abstract patterns. g - lit ifv " p. p Co-E- : -- M O 5 l age 39 ners.

Typical of the big evening look around town was his square, ruffled Mother Hubbard billowing like a maternity dress. De Luca also showed mini bloomers and skirts in primed cotton for evening. The mini skirt indeed is back in most of the shows but in a minority compared to mid-cal- f hemlines. Designer Claude Montana's show presented more ampleness, such as plaid dresses wide enough for two people drifting over petticoats in contrasting colors and topped by enormous shawls. Menswear designer Nino Cerruti showed his first collection for women and this highly respected tailor also joined the ample look, but refined for more conservative .females.

Women Out of Career Still Have Credentials Thinking about going back to work and wondering how to account for those missing years on your resume? According to Felice N. Schwartz, president of Catalyst (a national nonprofit organization that aids women in career planning), you needn't think of those years out of the market as missing. Ms. Schwartz points out that if you've done volunteer work, organized a household or developed expertise in a hobby, you have been working even though you haven't been paid. The trick to es- tablishing your credentials, says the career advisor, is to organize your skills and achievements into a resume that avoids chronological order and concentrates on "clustering" your marketable tools under specific headlines. Most women will find they have developed "administrative skills," public relations experience," or other related headline activities. 23CIVII So Pretty...
