Thu Traditionalist: This snobbish type sends her little girl to school wearing the complete "British Look. Smart? Yes, but behind this rigid style is the mother who is a narrow traditionalist, as as Trafalgar Square or Windsor Castle. The world is changing, and your little girl is going to belong to a new world. So buy her some lively gay American clothes theres more imagination in American childrens clothing than in any other countrys in the world. For school or everyday wear. The most important thing is that your child be neatly and cleanly dressed. This is best achieved by a simply cut Givi luxurious Walking lota Air-Cushi- 2. Thu Womun Then theres the mother who is always worrying about her daughters looks. Shes concerned about the way the childs hair wont curl, or the way it curls too much. She compares her childs appearance with every other little girls, always to the detriment of her own child. This mother probably has a secret fear of her own lack of worth, or perhaps thinks that men alone have real value as human beings. perhaps a one-piec- e dress with an attached belt, a skirt and sweater, or a jumper and a tuck-iblouse. If it has white trim, check to he sure it isnt being worn one extra day. "Woolen type clothes should be washable or cleaned just as carefully and often as Mothers. Be'sure al the buttons are sewn on, that shoes are nicely shined every day. Grooming now is just as important as later on, and the habits your daughter forms now will last. n Her school coat should be simple oo best in a color that isnt too light. The closings should be easy to hood is perhaps the most fasten. As for hats, a zip-o- n Or a little woolen hat that weather. for cold practical ties snugly under the chin. Gloves must be easy to put wool is usually best. And have a sufficient number on of gloves, preferably all alike, so that when your child loses one you can match up the remaining one. Parties. I dont believe in fancy party dresses and the farthest I would go is an organdy dress with a little trim. I like linens, broadcloths and other simple fabrics in preference to the overdone varieties. Its most important, of course, for your little girl to feel properly dressed at a party and shell generally feel better understated than overdressed. One sweet touch would be little colored slippers, perhaps bright red or pastel. And please omit the I think a little girl looks best quite natural. On small girls, I prefer no jewelry except perhaps k simple circle gold bracelet. If your budget permits a dress coat, a very simple coat for Sunday school or parties is nice but not necessary. You must always be certain that it with your A dresses. purple coat may be lovely but not daughters if it clashes with everything she wears underneath. hair-curlin- g clothes. These should be simbut in too, ple perhaps lighter dolor tones than school clothes. Choose them to go under her dress coat or her school coat. For attending Sunday school, of course, she should wear her best but not a party dress. Saturday-and-Sund- ay Play clothes. These can be anything, of course. Where and economy is important where isnt it? the simpler the better, and chosen for comfort and wear. Any colors will do, but be sure they well. A child tends to dress herself for play and can end up in some very peculiar combinations. White are most practical because they do go with all kinds of overalls and shorts. -- Accessories. Watch out for little girls pocketbooks so many are just cardboard glued together and covered with fake flowers. A small black patent or Lid bag is generally the best selection because it goes with most of her dressy clothes. I prefer white stretch socks on small girls. Nothing is more annoying than to end up with a pink dress and only a pair of green socks and one red sock in the drawer. Of course, you may want high knee socks for winter, and I think its wise to get these all alike too, to avoid that scramble for a pair that matches. As for hats, beware of the miniature grown-uhat, especially when its covered with cheap little flowers. Keep your little girls hats simple and becoming, not something perched on the top of her head. My preference is a Breton with streamers down the back. no cutouts or fancy Keep her shoes simple too trims. Black patents or brown oxfords, and white shoes only on the littlest ones. If you depart from the classic shoe, perhaps you could choose a little colored kid slipper to match her party dresses, or red kid that will go with most of her wardrobe. early-mornin- g p THIS WEEK Mogoiini April 2 1961 |
