By HANNAH TIMMONS
Spring fashions this year are
made to order for those of us who
belong to the "Oh, how I hate to
iron" sisterhood! New materials
and new mixtures of materials are
designed to give a fresh, crisp look
with a minimum of time spent at
the ironing board!
Cotton ridged with tiny tucks is
pretty for a wide summer skirt or
for a straight, tailored dress. The
tucks not only beautify but also
keep the dress, skirt, or whatever
from crushing. Tucked material is
especially practical for traveling
since it doesn't show the usual ill
effects prodluced by suitcases.
Tailored, broadcloth blouses with
a little-boyish look are pretty and
popular this season. Now they
come in a mixture of cotton andl
orIon that only looks like broad
cloth. It wvashes easily and diries
qluickly and smoothly--without
having to be ironed at all.
Cool, summer sweaters are some
thing new, too. They come in a
variety of colors, in cotton or
nylon, or in wool for chilly days.
Most of them are styled for sport
wear with shorts andl pedal
pushers. Others are going to be
more dressy-with lace collars.
Sport clothe, are striking a
practical, eas;y-to-keep tone in
dten im or stripped seersuockeri.
Shorts, pedal push51ers, and slacks
with blouses and jackets to mix or
match come in these sturdy ma
terials. Anad they require only a
qunick lick and a promise of ironing.
Another new fabric is dacron,
prob)abl y a first cousin o f nylon
and orIon. It is a cool, summer
material that is predicted to strike
a new note in summer fashions.
