Fashion notes on spring silhouettes and accessories
A New York Evening Post fashion column outlines spring trends including oblong clasps and half-jewelled accents for millinery and dresses, long Beau-Brummel redingotes, new hat shapes in Manilla and other straws, vivid color motifs, dove-gray corsages, and the shift toward simple coats with refined trims. Feathers remain the dominant headpiece, with varied effects across faces, and walking costumes favor fitted jackets, kitted skirts, and draped backs requiring whalebone or steel supports for the French look.
