Peterson, Jeweler One of the modern world's most famous doll collections, a 1952 gift to the Maryhill Museum from the Dress Designers Association of Paris, is now on view in the recently opened gallery at Mary hill, Washington. A liberal educa tion of fashions, the tiny doll mannequins are clothed in minia ture reproductions of Paris models all designed and made by the leading fashion houses of France. They are constructed with flexible wire bodies that can be placed in completely life-like poses and have exquisite little heads mold ed from - original sculptures by Rebull. I The costumes, many of them traditional in design, are each an exact replica down to the tiniest detail. The minature embroider ies, brocades, prints and feathers are all incredibly perfect. The hair-dos and accessories, too, rep. resent the fashion trends since the war. Hundreds of" shoes, gloves, bags and umbrellas add a realistic touch to the display. For several centuries it has been the tradition of the Paris designers to send dolls as am bassadors of French fashions to the capitals of the world. Mme. Berlin, the favorite designer of Marie Antinette, used to send! dolls dresses ii the models she created especially for the Queen of France to all the courts of Europe. Again, in 1945, at the close of the war, the designers and artists of France assembled more than two hundred costumed figurines to send about the world. Months of preparation by the weavers, the lace-makers, the shoemakers, the silversmiths,' umbrella, glove and , leather, workers of Fiance were neces sary for the linal completion of the fabulous collection. It is esti mated that cost of labor alone in the making exceed three hundred thousand dollars. First shown at the Louvre, in Paris the exhibi tion toured the leading museums an (Ignllaries of Europe, England and Scotland, and then came to the United States for showing in New York and San Francisco. It was received everywhere with enthusiastic praise. The collection now becomes a permanent part of the exhibits at the Maryhill Mu setitn where they can be seen any day during the open hours,. 9:30 to 5:30.
