Don't use a lot of fuss and detail in your dress in the hope that it will make people forget you're tall. ‘ ‘Fashionable Fai I Avoid Tuck-In Blouse It You are Tall A long winded a f t e 1' dinner speaker droned on and on. The crowd became restless. The chair- man picked up his gavel and rapped for order. A short, bald headed man who sat directly un- der the ‘chairman was hit on the top of the head. with. the gavel. The little short man slumped down in his seat. lowered his eyes, and moaned, “Hit me again, I can still hear him.\ The long torso blouse in police! for the tall girl. The brief Iwutcr or the tuck-in, high-wnilt skirt: should be avoided. It you are angular. went the’ large nut! that come: with so many new blouses. If you are mm and tall, wear the large bowl. I! you are tall and heavy. wear the slim- ming revers. That's the consensus trom ex- perts to the tall girl. The girl with height can wear clothes beautifully and look elegant. When properly groomed, she can be the envy of her shorter sisters. Round-shouldered girl: should not wear the round drawstring neck- line for it simply accentuates the stoop. Keep the neckline in the back and wear a bolero when- ever possible. Tall girls should not wear the tight narrow skirts. They simply emphasize height. The droopy look. too, is to be avoided. Use draped skirts, snappy pleated ones or those with the peg pockets that give I suggestive horizontal line. ‘ Peace At Last From PERSISTENT ITCH! Contrasting colors and horizontal lines are recommended for tall girls. but if this same girl has a lovely slender figure, she is told to emphasize her lines by repeat- ing in dress. This, too. is good ad- vice because whatever the asset it should be brought out with proper wearing apparel. However, it the tall girl has a thin angular face and figure she should use horizontal lines to play down the poor points. For example. don't expose the forehead with a tall hat that sits on the back or the head. Select a wide-brimmed hat which covers the forehead and at the same time gives a horizontal line.

Sport Clothes Demand Special Attention Tall slim girls would do well to choose swim suits with shitting and a voluminous skirt to hide their bony areas. Another good selection in a swim suit is the sort dressmaker type with the shin-ed or gathered top. Tall girls, whether slim or heavy. should never permit themselves to be seen in shorts. Wear pedal pushers or femlnized slacks. Never have your slacks and shirt match. Break the llna with con- trasting colors. Your jacket or shirt may be lull and bold striped or checked. or a dramatic plaid. In riding outfits, wear contrast- ing colored jacket and breaches. If your hips are too full. wear dark jodhpurs with a solid or checked long jacket. High-School Graduates CHOOSE YOUR CAREER IN A GROWING PROFESSIONI :3 -;2:.::.:;°::';:.::::: \\.. college girll.

There are several good ways to do this. One is to use color contrast. a light colored jacket and dark skirt. Another good way. espe- cially i£ you are ample hipped, is to wear a long jacket with the break coming well below the waistline. When the tall girl is top heavy, she should wear a long dark jacket over a print dress. This plays down the large torso and still gives the color break with which to shorten the figure. 11’ your dresses are of the very pretty. feminine variety. You'll want to choose the ultra- femlnlne ln footwear. This may mean a lovely lattice-work of straps nnd buttons or u dalnty out-out pattern or scroll work. This is 3 good type for early as well as late summer because it adds a suggestion of formal- ity to the costume. Polished leathers dn colors as well as many blond hues are vying for attention. Reptiles, too, have taken to color in 9. magnificent manner all thelr own.
