COURIER-fOST WOMEN California Stylists Play It Cool With Fashions Jor and about MONDAY, NOVEMBER 13, Social Scene a-- a soft sash below the bosom sculpts the newest silhouette for the very slim of figure. Hip-line accent Accomplished with banding or belts accounts for the low-placed waistline and longer torso. Normal waistline placement usually has a bloused or eased bodice, but is also found in simple sheath dresses, with piping or cording to define it. Necklines are cut in three categories the oval or "canoe' type, the high, round "perfect for pearls" soil and the cardigan or collarless Cowls, capes or hoods attach themselves to the oval. The others are kept simple, as foils for jewels, scarves or little furs.

Tunics alter the silhouette only slightly, but seem most used in slim-line dresses or costumes. Tunic length jackets which are longer than hip-length are used in suits and ensembles slated for day or night-time events. Beach tunics are very short above the knee, usually. Sleeves are significantly returning as a concession to those who feel that sleevelessness is not for them. That fraction of the feminine population whose The shape of things to come in resort and spring fashions is being unveiled this week by California designers.

It will be the season for a cool, heautifu! and feminine look, according to alvance news on the Tress Week showings. The California fashion creators are I-aiming for a "slow curves" of silhouette. I The silhouette is a "skimmer," I' "slow-fitting. Seen in profile it 'l is shaped to the body in front, falling free in back. A concave II curve begins sometimes just be-Mow the bustline, extending to 'the slight flare at the hem.

J.TPredominantly slender, skirt in filmy fabrics, such as chiffons, falls close to the body. Where stiffer fabrics are used, the flared silhouette is less extravagant, more controlled. Hemlines are status quo, still short, except for evening wear. More floor-length dinner gowns and evening dresses are being shown than in recent years. Waistlines wander, are lifted or lowered, but also located naturally.

Seaming is often responsible for the highwaisted, princess line, but occasionally 1'He 1 shoulders and arms are assets of slender proportions, will be able to find "no-sleeve" styles, however Fabrics for spring seem to emphasize the gentle, ladylike approach to fashion. Many printed chiffons float through the afternoon and into the night. Smooth-surfaced crepes, diaphanous wools and a host of colorful cottons are the stuff from which the shapes are born. Linen lends i's sleek-surfaced beauty to embroidered or unadorned simplicity. Silk and wool blends in smooth, stiff fabrics such as Alaskine and Ot-tomine, have much to do with the success of the flared silhouettes.

Knits have never, enjoyed greater favor. They are fluffy or flat, used in accompanying jackets or for a complete costume, sometimes for coatings that are matched to different' fabrics for the dresses beneath. Fringe continues to shimmer and shake like the flapper of the 20's in the midst of a Charleston. Introduced as big news earlier in 1961, it goes right on being used for trim on shawls, stoles, and in some instances from shoulder to hem in 2-inch panels or streamers that swing and sway. Even swimsuit designers have succumbed to the fringe binge.

Colors are cool, pastel and beautiful. They are also deep, muted and dark in some of the silk prints that have a tinge of Africa about them. Most promotional colors will be apricot, peach or coral. Lime green is next. Then comes turquoise or aqua blues.

The combination of brown, black and white is in for new exploitation, and beige will still be the biggest neutral." Some' say navy and gray are both due for a comeback but it Is still early enough that this cannot be definite. It is expected that the classic "red, white and blue" theme will be much in evidence for the "Americana" look which stores already are beginning to use. mm lb kt" lt1 10 On the Mrs. Nancr Robinson of 95 Freedom Clementon, has announced the engagement of her daughter, Miss Patricia Anne Robinson, to Mr. Joseph Robert Schratt, son of Mr.

I would like to talk to her again about this subject because there are many things I don't understand, but when I mention it she tells me she will talk to me "later," but "later" never comes. If it is a word I want to have explained dealing with sex, she tells me to look it up in the dictionary. How can I get my mother to tell me things a girl should know?

CURIOUS DEAR CURIOUS: According to my teen age experts, a boy and girl ulio go "steady" have agreed to go with no one else, and viake it "official" by exchanging class rings, pins or some other symbolic trinket. When a couple goes "steadily" they simply date each other, to the exclusion of others, but there is no "commitment" or exchange of trinkets. Everybody has a problem.
