French RivieraBy YVETTE de la FONTAINE Women’s News ServiceNICE “ Vacation time will be here before we realize it, and the time to dream and plan is now. But one has to choose, it seems. Do you prefer to look smart, or to relax and be comfortable? Want to carry little luggage, or have a really great wardrobe? And then this business of changing from swimsuit to dress for lunch, and then back into a swimsuit? (in European resorts you don’t walk around in a bathing suit.) How are you going to solve that if you want to take it easy and still dress well? ..1 • ' ;5 •1 The Riviera-based couturier, Tiktiner, has all the answers. The answers aren’t inexpensive; but they are perfect. Beautiful, practical, they enable you to have your cake and eat it, too.Tiktiner makes an unbeatable vacation ensemble, cuts it with a sure hand in finest fabrics, tailors itimpeccably even it it be sheer and scalloped, and then puts on it the high price it deserves. Deserves, not only for its beauty, but because it solves your clothing problems and keeps your brow unwrinkled.This Tiktiner solve-all ensemble consists of only three pieces: a short dress, and a two-piece bikini. A short dress, simply styled, but elegant enough to lunch or dine in at the finest restaurant, unbuttons to reveal, in place of undies, a matching scantybikini of .simplest cut.♦ ■More than half-the dresses in the Tiktiner summer collection follow this ingenious formula of dress over its own private undies in matching fabric.' ‘ 'A classic one in apple green shantung in pure silk, is the hit of the season. Styled. like a shirt, it has long sleeves, a pleated skirt and a gilt chainbelt, plus of course its unbulky matching bikini beneath.Another, an absolute darling, made in white organdy, embroidered all over in big white dots, follows the softer line.. Its private undies in town or bikini at the resort, are made, like its collar, in white sharkskin.A see-through dress in blue sheer nylon, white dotted, is scalloped round its hem and down its buttoned front in white. Long-sleeved, it is cuffed and collared in white with a white bikini that only slightly shows through.Besides these wonderful dresse s-eum- und ies, there are the famous Tiktiner jersey, dresses, some navy suits and coats aiid some divine printed silks, all designed with the well-bred taste this house has become noted for, all blessed by that impeccable cut and stitching that makes a simple garment worth its price.
