Fashions showed little radical change except in skirt fullness. There were two silhouettes to choose from the skinny look and the relaxed "A-Line" with modified lines, not the full swinging skirts. Lengths were mid-knee and slightly longer for those whose legs, or fuller figures, makes another one half inch to an inch preferable for attractive walking and sitting.

And of course there were lovely pastel shades, muted, plain or blended in floral or paisley patterns.

As for hats there were fascinating travel hats, which did not crush as the models folded them, and lovely floral hats for special occasions. The trend appears to be towards snoods and big hats with sailors and Mary Pop-pins influence in many versions. There were numerous glove-soft leather and suede coats, jackets, skirts and hats. Besides being long wearing the audience was told the garments were not "hot" to wear. The show opened with a display of suits including walking and linen suits, perfectly matched dress and coat and three piece ensembles.

The rain coats and hats were bright and high fashion. To give a touch of elegance to many of the fashions there was a touch of fur. Sportswear included dresses, mix and match skirts, sweaters, blouses and slims or pants. Hostess coats, short and full length kimonos and sleepwear were also modelled. Following the intermission when tea was served, travel and cocktail dresses and evening gowns were modelled.

Many garments were fashioned in pure silk, silk and linen, acetate prints, dacron jersey and cottons. The jewelry was from Jennifer's. The full length evening gowns were fashioned from chiffon, cotton with a silk appearing finish suitable for the older teenager for the graduation ball; chiffon, crepe and pure silk in vibrant floral shades.
