Fall's Party-Going Fabrics To Be Rich-Looking Satins By ELIZABETH TOOMEY United Press Staff Correspondent New York (U.R) Women will shimmer after dark next winter in the most lavish fabrics since the party-going days of the roaring 20s. Great Britain's young Queen Elizabeth has inspired this new elegance with her satin and bro cade ball gowns and glittering jewels, designer Jane Derby says. Less romantic fashion observ ers give credit to economic pros perity and 20th century tech nology. Men gave up wearing the satin pants in the family back in the 18th century, they point out, when the industrial revolution came along and businessmen got the idea guess from whom of showing off their wealth via their wives' wardrobes, not their own. Prosperity Present prosperity gives plenty of reason to wear rich leoking satins and dazzling met allic materials, they add, and laboratory technicians have pro vided lush new fabrics to suit the budgets of more modest success. Anyway, it'll be hard to give a dull party next winter. Design er Adele Simpson calls it the opulent look. She was referring to the even ing clothes she previewed on the last day of the series of all and winter fashion shows sponsored by the coutre group of the New York Dress Institute. Mrs. Simpson will have her customers shimmering in long evening dresses of silk metal brocade, satins dotted with pearls and rhinestone and for the very opulent a gold lame evening coat with a mink shawl collar. Queenly Gowns Mrs. Derby will provide short versions of queenly evening gowns. One short white satin derby evening dress has a flared skirt studded with rhinestones. Another is made of imported moire silk with glittering rhine stone straps over the shoulders.

Around Hollywood By ALINE MOSBY United Press Correspondent Hollywood U.R) Susan Hay W'ard's next picture unveils her as a husky-voiced blues singer, but the red- haired star modestly thinks she's a one- picture crooner. Susan, back at work for the first time since her re c e n t suicide Aline Mosby attempt, sur prised Hollywood and herself by coming forth with an amaz ingly good voice. MGM had planned to have a professional singer dub in Su san's voice for the film of singer Lillian Roth's life, "I'll Cry To morrow." But musical director Johnny Oreen tricked Susan into a voice test and she was "so ex citing" she'll do her own warbling. 'Just for Laughs' "It's probably just for this pic ture. I'm a dramatic actress and I doubt if I'll sing again," the star insists. "This is just for laughs." Director Danny Mann, how ever, thinks this picture "will mean another career for Susan in musicals and on the stage if she wants it." Susan's throaty voice, according to "rushes" of her musical scenes, sounds like a young Sophie Tucker. Green calls Susan a "female Al Jol son." It was Green who asked Susan to sing a sample record that the studio could use in finding' a si milar voice for the dubbing. Tricked by Green "She said she'd do it only if I promised never to play the rec ord for anybody, and if we'd re cord it alone in my office," Green says. "She sang, "Let's Fall in Love'. After she became relaxed, I flicked on the recorder. I broke my promise and played the rec ord for studio chief Dore Schary. He was so impressed we delayed the picture two weeks so she could take singing lessons. "She agreed to sing if we hired a stand-in singer in case she changed her mind. But she didn't." New Type Biographies "I'll Cry Tomorrow" is another news-maker because it illustrates a new trend in film biographies. They used to be whit e-washes of celebrities' lives. But "Love Me or Leave Me" was a frank account of singer Ruth Etting's life.
