Wonderful Travel Clothes—Wonderful Anywhere
Wanted on voyage: fresh colors, tireless materials, easygoing glamour, a preview of fashions for spring BY ALLYN RICE ∎ You could go far with the five outfits shown on this page—to the Costa Brava in mimosa time, to fabulous Brasilia or the jungles of Trinidad—or you could sit quietly at home, all ready for spring. Here is the new, bright suit that is going to be high fashion come Easter. And the beautiful, simple light coat to wear everywhere. And the romantic cocktail-dinner dress that folds flat as a pillowcase. Travel clothes they are, every one of them, and also the best of spring fashion because the look of fashion today is the purposeful, exciting "plain-clothes" look of being ready for a wonderful trip. Coming out of the suitcase—the cocktail dress seen on the opposite page. On the hanger, a black and white Orlon with a red neckerchief. She wears a blue washable knit.
