Just the exclusive and distinctive Easter Suits that you have set your heart upon—the
most appealing fashions that the famous Paris designers have brought forth, repro-
duced by the best American makers. Direct copies from such style creators as Pa-
quin, Callot, Premet, Bulloz and others of like note. Slender and graceful models de-
spite their indulgence in all things bouffant; jackets just short enough to be spring-
like and in nowise too exaggerated in the lengths and elaboration of their elongated
backs. The materials in this Easter showing incline to novelty Crepes, Silk Poplins,
and Moires, Gabardines, Chiffon Taffetas and imported novelties. The price range
is from $50 and $65 to $75. , i
