A New Silhouette Christian Dior Showr New Collection By DOROTHY ROE Aiiwialed Pres Wcmea's Editor NEW YORK 11 - Christian Dior, the fabulous Frenchman, concentrate interest from the bustline up in hli New York fash ion collection for (all. This, aayx Dior, is the year for the "epee" or fencing sword silhouette. The ornate sword handle, in that case, represents above-the-boK drama in his new fashions, while the blade is the slender skirt. He goes in for huge lapels, elaborate collars, width at the shoulder line, scurfs, ties and capes to draw the eye upward, topping the whole thing off with stovepipe hats, high turbans or bulky berets. Coats and suits in the new Dior line have none of that lightweight look evident in most other New York collections, but are definite ly bulky, of heavy fabrics, frankly designed for cold-weather, wear. Perhaps the recent frigid winter In Europe influenced the design er's choice of fabrics. Fabrics are luxurious through out the collection, with much em phasis on stiff, rustling silks for cocktail and evening - wear, lav ish use of emhrniderv. lace and Jeweled trimmings. Dior mannequins also assume a new stance this season, leaning forward into the wind, in a pos ture reminiscent of the Gibson Girl without bustle. They wear shoes with stiletto heels to end all stiletto heels slender spikes ,no bigger than a good-size nail. Tina Leser, entranced with the flamboyant fashions of the period of Henry VIII, introduces a sort of suspenders and belt arrange ment in various furs which she calls a "Britina," teaming it with wool sheath dresses in brilliant Holbein colors. She also shows Henry VIII pants in red velvet, an Ann Boleyn dress with John Frederics Wimple, and "surcoats" which .are hipbone jackets made like cutaway coats. ' Holding that play clothes should also be worn in the evening, the unabashed Tina shows a series of festive play clothes such as jeans in shocking pink satin and a cobbler's apron in electric blue satin, both lined in striped cot ton, both stitched like the familiar denim originals.
