Society and Clubs Thursday. February 2, I956rnnrprt pianjst Is Initiated by SOC Honorary Castillo's 'Coronet Line' !n Paris Sprinq Collection By BARBARA MILLER United Press Correspondent Paris (U.R) Woman's strug gle for womanly curves ran to day into the upside down ice cream cone effect of Lanvin-Cas-tillo's "coronet line" which makes bosoms precariously high and almost extin,ct. , . Castillo of Lanvin came forth yesterday with the only "look" worthy of (he name of this sea son. Today, on the third day of the Paris spring dress collec tions, Jean Desses is presenting a more conservative , approach toward the fashionable silhou ette for the next six months. ' Castillo's coronet line feature a silhouette which flared out from shoulder to hem . . . the waistline - often moved up to where the bust used to be. The bustline ... almost non-existent. Castillo also came up with "canezousy-flared, waist length boleros for daytime dresses. The canezous gave the effect of two ice cream cones nestled one on top of the other. Underneath the canezous, princess-style dresses flared out in one continuous line broken only by drapes knotted under the bust, or breast-high mar tingales. Maternity Look Castillo's "maternity" look in dance dresses . startled even his most fervent admirers. Flounces jutted out from under the bust line, in one and two tiers, in what can only be described as a very pregnant way. The man nequin's forward carriage height ened this impression. , Underlining his' shortened bustline, Castillo showed diago nal midriff pockets, and appli qued fringed ribbons. To heJght en his cone' silhouette, he placed sequined bows and Spanish combs atop the mannequin's chignon. , Tall crowned hats and sloping wavy brims topped the "coro net" by day. ' His coats won applause. Flared in a single line by day, they took on . foreign glamour at night. A Favorite The "burnoose" was a favor ite Of a black satin striped in white, the hooded wrap was lined and edged with white chif fon. Underneath, a white chiffon dress flowed out under the bust in a less exaggerated line. In a late night show, Maggy Rouff chalked up another defeat for the pro-bosom' couturiers. Her styles brought reminiscent sighs from all former 1920 flap pers. In general, this is a bit behind the times but certain de tails are to be found in many 1956 collections. Bosomless and waistless, her clothes dropped to the hips' and were fixed there with low-slung martingales and buttoned panels. Many jersey and wool dresses were gathered on bands. This detail fitted dresses under the bosom and at the hips. Jackets were caught low in back.- Dinner Meeting Held by Auxiliary; Contribution Made Southern Oregon Osteopathic auxiliary held their January din ner meeting at the home of Mrs. G. S.
