Paris Fashion Trends Soon to Be
Adopted by Milady in the States
By Cynthia Lowry
AP Newsf eatures Writers
PARIS Well, the great Dior
has spoken so most people are
ready now to express their opin
ions on what our own American
clothes are going to look like a
few months hence. It takes a few
months, you know, for Paris "in
spiration" to get translated from
a custom-made masterpiece into
a dress you and I can afford,
plus time for us to get our point
of view educated to the new mode.
You'll probably be hearing quite
a bit about what Paris decrees.
I think it boils down to only a
few things and here's what they
are:
Generally speaking, Paris dress
makers are keeping hemlines
around 13 and 14 inches from the
floor. Dior, that quiet little man
who precipitated the "New Look,"
has about the shortest skirts of
any of them IS and 13 Vi inches
from the floor.
There are lots of full skirts In
all the collections, but on a per
centage basis, I'd say that the
very slim skirt was the winner.
Some of the suit skirts are so
slender it's been necessary to slash
them so the mannequins can
slither about the showrooms.
Then, of course, there is the
shoulder business and I think
that is what's going to make the
news. The rarest thing in Paris
today, with the possible exception
of American coffee, is a shoulder
pad. Everybody, from the small
est dressmaker to the biggest, has
gone back to the natural shoulder
line.,
Jean Desses, the young Greek
designer who shot up like a comet
a season or so back, has a whole
collection based on a side drape
he calls a "kite" line and a spiral
sort of drape ht calls a "lasso."
He has carried these super struc
tures up until you find his dress
es with winged effects rising from
the shoulder, or shooting off to
one side.
Pierre Balmain also is fooling
around with shoulders some
times putting a separate strip of
material over them or staging
effects that carry the eye around
to the back, where he often puts
a graceful little pouch which most
of us decided looked like a pa
poose pouch but handsome.
Dior has moved shoulder seams
off the shoulder to ' somewhere
down the arm near the elbow, and
then has gone in for all sorts of
fancy sleeve effects mostly out
size and the effect Is a new up
per silhouette.
Another thing which everyone
refers to as a "trend' Is collars.
The inescapable conclusion is that
coat collars are going to be very
high. From Balmain, whose col
lection opened the two weeks' of
fashion showings, through Desses,
Lanvin, Piquet, Patou, Schiapar-

elli, and all the rest, designers
show top coats and fur coats with
collars that come up, the ears and
conceal most of the face.
This, of course, means that big
hats 'are out. Everyone shows
little hats. Some of them fit tight
ly like helmets. Others sit square
ly on top of the head and heaven
alone knows how they are kept
on, because short hair is the
vogue.
Jewelry Is big, glittering and
splashy. There are great heavy
rings, ropes of fake pearls wound
like a collar around the neck, col
lars of rhinestones. But, except
for rings, there seems to be a
tendency to keep away from
jewelry until at least tea-time.
They are doing Interesting
things with gloves. A number
of the houses show gloves that
are bulky and loose fitting, with
square finger-ends. Dior presents
gloves of cloth and leather which
continue up the arm right to the
shoulder, and sometimes uses
single one as a sort of sleeve In
some of his asymmetrical bodice
effects.
For evening. youU be Interest
ed to know, anything goes as long
as it's strapless or has only one
strap. As to fabric, velvet Is pop
ular, and so are luxurious satins,
brocades and wonderful lace and
embroideries.
And finally, if you really want
to startle the local citzenry, Bal
main has an idea which we can
adopt easily. He figures people
have been wearing their corsages
and jewels in front too long. So
on a large number of his eve
ning things, he puts the jewelry
and the flowers In back with the
logical explanation it will permit
girls to make a sensational exit
instead of an entrance.

bras and girdles where more than

All of which brings up a ques
tion of how to iron these fused
fabrics. This fusing, which Is a
stiffening and at the same time
a bonding of different layers of
fabrics, is done with a synthetic
that is meeted or fused under
the application of heat. The fus
ed fabrics are laundered in the
usual way. according to the de
mand of the garment.
However, after laundering, no
starching? is necessary. Instead
th fused fabric is ironed while
it is quite damp with consider
ably more moisture in it than for
ironing either a starched or un
starched fabric. In order to
achievi the best results, iron
from the front point of each side
of the collar toward the back,
first shaping the collar careful
ly. Use about the same heat as
you would for a rayon fabric.
