Fads and Fashions From Paris Point to Spring Styles
New York fashion writers report spring summer trends after Paris arrivals. Directoire influence persists in a practical line with wider gores and clinging skirts, semi fitting coats, collarless necklines, velvet trims, and a surge of silk and wool blends. Lightweight satin serge and Ottoman silks appear in tailored coats and dresses, with pongee weaves popular for both wear and trimming. Collarless waists, Irish crochet collars, Cluny lace, and three piece lingerie sets reshape undergarments, while belts and buckles emphasize a unified accessory look.
