Throughout the centuries,
acrossthe world, brides have
traditionally been described
as possessing a special glow-
ing beauty, a radiance that is
seen only on the face of a
Womanin love on her most...
romantic of days.
It's only natural that the
gem traditionally worn by
brides throughout the ages is
a • perfect reflection of this
very special type of beauty.
The cultured pearl, na-
ture's most magnificent gift
from the sea, possesses a
radiant lustre and subtle
palette of demure hues which
ayethe natural -complement
to a.bride's unique beauty.
Today, with a return to the
romantic and the traditional
in wedding styles, cultured
pearls are an even greater fa-
vorite of brides as an exqui-
site• accessory.
The Cultured Pearl Asso-
ciation has some helpful
guidelines for brides to use in
selecting the styles of cul-
tured pearl jewelry that will
best complement their
gowns—and their own
radiance—on their wedding
day.
The most important thing
to consider when selecting a
cultured pearl necklace is the
neckline of the gown. High,
round necklines can be
adorned with either the popu-
lar multiple strand "dog col-
lars" or the traditional single
strand choker, a perennial
favorite for its demure, clas-
sic look. The most formal
look would be a. matinee or
opera length necklace falling
softly over the bosom.
Deeper, scooped necklines
suggest a variety of cultured
pearl necklaces. The fash-
ionable dog collar is equally

or matinee strand would be
absolutely lovely. Most
luxurious of all would be a
bib of several strands of
pearls falling from the base of
the throat to the top of the
gown's neckline.
High -standing collars do

pearls:•. matinee or opera•

mantic and striking effect,

richness of your necklace.
For final touches of

of cultured pearl earrings or,
