Evening dresses in gold and silver brocade dominate the look with sheer metal sheen. High contrast to dark suits, they emphasize simplicity of line and dramatic trains. Metal gowns rely on fabric shine, with subtle hats and light trims enhancing headpieces.
Springfield reports Rep. Gue Johnson of Paxton has introduced a broader second bill taxing natural resources to fund schools.
