ll0I'III8I?l'lal'lII0ll Features "Washing llay" In spring collection

By DOROTHY IVADDINGTON
LONDON. Jan. 31 - (Reuters) - "Washing Day" was the name of one of the mcsi. glamorous models in the new spring collection shown by Norman Hortnell. Queen Eliza- beth's dressmaker. for the first time yesterday. i
It featured Hartneli's new winged lapels. ending in a halter neckline leaving the back bare. Designed for ex-eniiig wear, it was made of still while pique which appeared to have come straiglit from the laundry. A suggestion of youth was given by large patterned "broderie anglaiss" an the lapels and on the skirt below the i-meeluie.
The outstanding characteristic of the collection was a beautiful blend- ing of colors. especially for evening gzlwns .. deep violet with turquoise blue. pastel shades of blue. green and pink combined with white in a harlequin pattern picked out in ir- rdescent Pearls. syringa green tulle with sprays of white flc-wcrs.
Daytime oolors were more vivid. A beautiful suit appropriately nam- ed "moss rose" was in dark green. silky-finished wool with I. small waistcoat in old rose. Yellow in var- ious shados. often with greens. black and royal purple. red and vivid blues. were other color combinations for the daylight hours.
Suit. jackets generally were long- er and tigiht-fitting: skirts were shorter, slender and hip-moulding. but giving sufficient freedom of movement. Raglan sleeves gave way to the more conventional inset shoulder Line.
Dots of all sizes dominated the printed summer fabrics for garden parties with large flat-crowned cart-
pique and other materials.
