Men's Taste Best Says Sally Victor By GAY PAULEY United Press Correspondent New York (U.R) When it comes to buying a spring bonnet, let the man in your life have the last word for a change. Mrs. Sally Victor said that if women paid more attention to masculine advice, there would be fewer outlandish hats in the Easter parade. "Men for the most part have better taste than women," said Mrs. Victor, who makes the hats worn by the nation's first lady. Does Mrs. Eisenhower listen to the President? "She certainly does," said the milliner. "I. don't know of any hat he's turned thumbs down on completely. But she gets the same glow as any other woman when complimented on what she's wearing. Men like women in feminine hats, she said. "I don't mean fussy," she added, "but soft in line and color. Men don't like those stiff, wired-looking sailors, for instance." Mrs. Victor said that despite all the warnings, the Easter pa rade will be cluttered with hat mistakes. She listed some of the inevitable buying errors. "The biggest is buying a hat because a friend likes it," she said. Another is the woman's insist ing on a certain color because "someone told her when she was 16 the shade was flattering, and she's been featuring it ever since. Women forget that skin tone hair color change from those sweet-16 days."
