By ELIZABETH TOOMEY United Press Correspondent New York (U.R) J- The fine old art of camoulflage, a female science long before modern war fare caused males to study its possibilities, is always in style. - Design a dress that cleverly conceals a pudgy waistline or creates the illusion of curves where there are none and you can stitch yourself right into financial security. This philosophy has served designer Rosalie Macrini very nicely for the past 25 years. She has become the master of the broken cummerbund, the wizard of the concealing scarf and the artful inventor of canvas under pinnings. . - Miss Macrini is not a name widely known among women shoppers. But she has been de signing nothing but $100-plus cocktail dresses and evening gowns for the past 25 years for the Barbara Costume company. Now she owns the company. Has Proven Her Point She has proven her point which is that "no matter how fabulous the dress, if it doesn't make a woman look slim and pretty it is a failure." Miss Macrini revealed some of the most common figure faults she tried to correct with her dresses, which certainly look anything but corrective, in cidentally. They're strictly glamour jobs of chiffon, mar quisette, lace and taffeta. 'I don t see eye to eye with women who thinK tney must have a lot of flesh showing in an evening dress," Miss Macrini said. "I think the subtle, sexy look of a high neck and long sleeves can be one of the mostl flattering fashions we have." The petite designer, who seem ed to have a perfect figure in her snugly fitted black wool dress, said she never wears low cut evening dresses herself be cause "my shoulders aren't at tractive." Filmy Side Panel Most of her strapless dresses have a filmy panel attached at one side in back. It can be left to float from the shoulder, can be looped around the shoulders and tucked into a special loop on one side to give a portrait, collar effect, or even can be wrapped around the neck with the end trailing behind. "There are two unattractive places that some women should up in low-cut dresses," she ex. plained. "The backs of the upper arms and the hollows just under the arms." Who are the Camp. Fire Girls?. They are girls between seven and eighteen years old of all races, , religions and" economic backgrounds who enjoy fun and friendship in Camp Fire's pro gram for three age levels. . She cuts her strapless dresses to fit as close to the arm as pos sible in front, then dips them in the back. Her cummerbunds are usually "broken" cleverly stitched on the dress with waist line slits or points to minimize the size. And all the dress bodices are sewed onto canvas foundations with boned fronts, so the sturdy canvas can hold in or build up the figure.
