DRESS UP TIME The Men Find It Will Be Formal on New Year's TODAY'S WOMEN By DOROTHY ROE Associated Presi Women's Editor Brealhes there a woman who hasn't dressed to the teeth on New ear's Eve only to have the man In her life show up in an old tweed suit? This all too frequent tragedy should constitute grounds for di vorce but most women figure even a man who looks like a refugee from a rummage sale ut better than no man at all. So they swal low their chagrin, keep a stiff up per lip and go out with the brutes anvway. This year, however, things may be different. The men's formal wear industry is going to bat in oenait . of America a suffering womanhood, and is making aurc i-op won t lorget that only "square" wears a business suit to a formal dance. The boys are being reminded in various ways. For instance, atari ing today, any man who leaven a call to be wakened in any one of some 35 loading hotels throughout me country may be slarlled to be roused from slumber by a cheery voice saying: Good morning! Its 7.30. Re member, go formal New Year' Eve!" Any man who slops in a flower siiop anywhere in the country will be creeled by the message.

If he takes taxicab he's likely to see a sign reading, "Go formal New Year'i Eve and take a cab." For the next week the message will be dinned into his ears by TV commentators, department store salesmen and of course the little woman. As a matter of fact, the men have been waking up to the fact (hat clothes make the man for some lime now, as witness the zooming sales of formal male at tire. In the past . 10 years sales of dinner jackets, tails and other for mal accoutrements have increased 10-fold. In 1946 the total sales of men's formal clothes totaled mere t'M million dollars. In 1956, industry spokesmen say they will surpass 664 million. The big push to the new popii' larity of dressing up of an evening has come from the younger set the college men and junior exca utives. They were first to discover the comfort of the new lightweight evening clothes, ' and they also must have found that their pop ularity with the opposite sex rose in exact proportion to their cor rectness of dress.
