French Designer Predicts
Era of Studied Casualness
By ELIZABETH TOOMEY
United Press Correspondent
New York U.R) The new
year 1956 will begin an era of
studied casualness in women's
clothes, Lilly Dacha predicted
O G
We'll be casual with an ele
gance never achieved in the
strait-laced both physically and
socially former days, declared
Miss Dache, who is a cool-headed
business woman with no time
for crystal ball gazftg.
It will be the definitive style
for the second half of the 20th
century, in the designer's opin
ion. The clothes we are wearing
now she'rmed "transitional,"
with certain forerunners of fu
ture styles.
Wonderful Time
Miss Dache bases her predic
tions on a few significant facts.
As she discussed them in a
lunch interview, the voluble
French designer, who is presi
dent of a perfume company, a
hair products company, a cos
metics company and her own
boutique and hat-designing firm,

talked with mounting . excite
ment. "Ah, this is a wonderful time
for a woman to live," she said,
clasping her hands eagerly.
"From now on women will be
more free than ever before.
They are ready to throw aside
old taboos because they are se
cure.
"That is why they are ready
for a new way to dress. You do
not add anything new to your
self or dye your hair unless you
are secure. You must know that
you can get away with it. Now
women are confident of their
their power.
Coat with Sable Collar
"Studied casualness,"- Miss
Dache continued, ignoring the
cooling food on her plate, is
quite opposite from careless
ness. You want an example? I
give you one. Did you read
where Marlene Dietrich walked
into a cocktail lounge on Park
avenue wearing a gold kid
trench coat with a sable collar.
That is studied casualness."
Miss Dache cited the sweaters
women now buy for evening
wear as another example.
"I have sweaters that are em
broidered with wonderful Span
ish shawl kind of embroidery,"
she said. "They are one of a
kind and people pay S200 for
them. That is studied casual
ness." Miss Dache predicted that we
will wear fewer tight - waisted
clothes, more capes, more lush
fabrics and bigger hats in the
casual era. We also, will pay
more attention to colors in cos
tumes and be less restricted by
tight girdles.
