Israel's Fashions Ignore Lean Look
By ELIAV SIMON
United Press Correspondent
Tel Aviv (U.R) Women of
the world's newest nation have
the world's oldest feminine
problem keeping the waistline
slim.
So says Lola Behr, Israel's top
woman designer. "Our women
should follow the American
trend," she said in an inter
view. "Waistlines are just too
big."
Miss Behr, herself . a slim
woman with delicate hands and
features, said Israeli women had
an excuse for plumpness when
national food shortages compel
led a heavy diet of starches.
Now she said, there's plenty of
fruits and vegetables, and it's
time women of the new nation
tried out the long, lean look de
creed by fashion leaders in New
York and Paris.
Lola Behr studied fashion in
Prague, emigrated to Tel Aviv
and opened a shop which has
become in a decade one of the
most exclusive in Israel. Half
her customers , are diplomats'

wives and visitors who have

Miss Behr's flat in Tel Aviv
serves as both home and salon,
where she and four dozen help
ers sketch, cut, pin and sew.
The customers line up. regard
less of rank or wealth, in the
modest grey foyer outside.
"There is no such thing as a
typical Israeli fashion," said
Miss Behr. She goes to Paris
twice a year for ideas,, and
adapts them to her country's
tastes and climate.
The torrid summer and short
winter of the Middle East forces
dress designers to concentrate
on cool, simple clothing.
Yemenite embroidery, intro
duced by immigrants from the
toe of Arabia, is the only non
Parisian feature . of Israel's
haute couture. .
Applied in rich bands of me

ning accessories, this embroid
ery caught the Oriental streak
in most Israelis and become
popular immediately.
