New York designers defy Paris looks with ladylike spring styles

New York designers rebel against extreme Paris silhouettes opting for simple ladylike spring outfits. Sleeveless dresses, long waistlines, dirndl-like skirts and flutter jackets with brass buttons define the new trend. Petticoats in cotton, chiffon, or crepe illuminate vivid prints on bright backgrounds, while tailored pieces include silk slips and satin crepes. Two-piece outfits are now called costumes, and pup tent coats skew slim at the top with flared waists. A pink cotton pique Adele Simpson dress epitomizes the look for girls.
