Designer Larry Aldrich
! Uses Unfitted Silhouette
BY GAY PAULEY
UPI Women' Editor
New York (UPI Design
er Larry Aldrich maintains
the unfitted silhouette is here
to stay. But he also admits
women still need some con
vincing. Said Aldrich, at a preview
of his fall collection for 200
visiting fashion reporters:
"Despite the opinion of the
fashion experts, such as
plumbers, taxi drivers, edi
torial writers, television com
ics and even politicians a
reference to an Adlai Steven
son wisecrack about the sack
there is no longer any 'doubt
about the victory of the revo
lutionary silhouette. But the
war is not completely over by
any means. . ."
"The unfitted fashion. . .
gives the woman the sense of
well-being and elegance she
seeks in new clothes," said
Aldrich, one of the first of
Seventh Avenue's fashion
leaders to adopt the chemise.
"It represents a clothes in
vestment with a future, not
in a waning fashion."
Others Disagree
Alich's observations run
counter to many fashion lead
ers famine lrigere ana uieg
Cassini, g name a couple. Cas
sini, who believes clothes
n should show the figure, says
the time has come for a "re
turn to reason." Tngere con
cedes that a lot of women are
waiting for the fitted waist,
and many of her unfitted num
bers are easy to nip in at that
q part of the anatomy.
Aldrich showed six major
'silhouettes:
The slender, high-waisted
dress with slightly gathered or
tapered skirt; the slim dress
"with a low hipline highlighted
by a belt, sash, or set-in hip
n band; the "mobile" dress,
' . . ; a I : V-
wnicn is ivo-piece or wnu a
jacket, the top slightly flared
; and boxy over a full skirt; the
suspension shape dropping in
wide fullness from a high
yoke; the demi-waistline dress,
a "compromise" shape with a
wide crushed belt fitting the
front only, with the back
hanging lose; and the valance
hem, in which the dress hangs
str$ght except for a flounce
at the knee.
"There is no one major sil
houette this year," said de
signer Adele Simpson.
The Sack Is Dead
"The sack was finished in
a hurry because there were so
many ugly versions. The word
itself was ugly," she added.
"I believe in the dress that
Qskims the body, but a woman
wants to feel some fit. That
is why I've put so much stress
on inner construction."
Many of Mrs. Simpson's
dresses have built-in bodices;
others are fully interlined.
Mollie Parnis, who designs
for Mrs. Dwight D. Eisen
hower, said farewell to the
"limp and baggy." She dis
played two major shapes the
straight and narrow, but fit
ted loosely, grid the "paper
doll," with a definite flare and
waistline curve.

If this wasn't July 1958, we'd say the gods were angry.
Looking back on the short storm which struck our neighbor
hood last night, it's easy to understand why sometimes
people believed that the lightning, thunder and high winds
were caused by the gods, angered at some action of the
mortals.
At the height of the storm, we were too upset and busy
tor reflection. At first the two
watching the trees and boughs tossing furiously and weirdly
in the wind and the driving rain, rain so heavy that objects
but a short distance could not
Remembering the open windows upstairs ,we ran to shut
them only to discover that closing them didn't "keep out
the torrents of rain. Water ran down inside the panes and
around the casings, it seeped in around the light fixtures
and crept under the doors. It even came down the chimney
and splashed on the hearth. When the thunder rolled, the
house quaked and quivered
Looking out an upstairs
cypress tree, taller than our two-story house, had snapped
off a few feet from "the ground and crashed across the
patio, narrowly missing the Chevrolet parked beside the
driveway, and taking with it flower pots and basket.
Water ran down the driveway, heaping up little mounds
of debris. Rose blossoms were broken off a couple of inches
below the petals and the heads scattered around the yard.
Through the worst of this ' and above the noise of the
wind and rain we occasionally heard the pounding of a
hammer. For this was the week that the family had chosen
to have the south half of the roof re-covered. Frank Hanley,
the shingler, ignoring the high wind and driving rain,
worked on as fast as he could to cover the exposed section
from which he had ripped the
Actually, more water seemed to come in where the roof
remained than did where it was open, since the wind
drove it under and in to unaccustomed spots.
Aware finally that the noise on the roof had ceased,
Pappy hastily donned a coat to run out and see if Mr. Hanley
had come to harm, only to meet him at the door looking
as if he had just been fished out of the river. Even the
pockets of his trousers were full of water. While' he stood
in the middle of the kitchen, dripping. Pappy found him a
towel and dry shirt, and we made coffee.

me wind also flattened Fappy's beautiful, tall sweet
corn, and even picked up the cucumber vines, flat as they
were, and twisted the runners this way and that. The tall
phlox, in full bloom, lay almost to the ground. Only a few
hours before we had watered the potted red carnation,
noting that it had several fat buds in addition to the three
beautiful red blossoms. It was in the path of the falling
tree, and one of the shattered-blossoms we picked up, six
or eight feet from the pot. And practically every tree and
shrub on the place is filled with branches from the willow,
stripped from the big tree and driven in among the branches
of others.
The storm did nothing, we might add, to quiet the unease
which rose in us during the day as we listened to and read
the alarming international news.
The Perfect Answer This story, originally printed as
an editorial in the San Francisco Chronicle, Potpourri found
m the columns of the Christian Science Monitor. Cecil Poole,
assistant district attorney, one recent morning found the
perfect answer for a question from his 6-year-old daughter
Mr Poole, a Negro, lives in the Ingleside Terrace district, a
white" neighborhood. This morning his daughter came run
ning to him to report "There's a cross on our lawn all
burned. Why is it there?"
The Negro hesitated a moment and then said "Some
Christian has lost his way." The perfect answer, indeed.

Named Accessories
Aid to Youngsters
Personalized accessories are
often a great incentive for
youngsters to wash hands and
face often and without prod
ding. If you have one of those
new do-everything sewing ma
chines, it will take you no
time at all to stitch each
child's name onto a batch of
terrycloth towels with bright
color embroidery thread. Or
a simple cross stitch, embroid
ered by hand, is also easy and
fast. In fact, even a little girl
can learn to "name" her very
own towels or soir? for
brother's birthday.
