Frills Missing In Easter Fashions For Younger Set
New York fashion notes for Easter show a leaner look for young girls. Dresses and coats favor skimpy shapes, sleeveless or collarless designs, high waists, and minimal trim with braid embroidery or tucks. Coats highlight guardsman styles with double breasted fronts. Yellow dresses and white coats dominate, pink appears in outfits, and fussiness fades as coordinated suits lead the parade.
