OPEN MONDAYS 9:30 A.M. to 9 P.& Pione SP 2-7169 A MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. Friday was one of the days Mrs. John Kennedy. Hearing group had chosen the 19b0 world, and that she headed the saying, "Being a fashion of the list of things I desire." Not that we aren't interested in clothes, and seeing wom en well-dressed. We are. But many overwhelming problems the world, the business of what to wear does properly rank as the least of many women's interests. Reading the list, which included the queen of Thailand, Princess Alexandra of Kent, England, Princess Stanislas Radziwill. who is Mrs. Kennedy's sister and a number of other women known in International social circles, Potpourri wished that the story had contained a bit more information. We'd like to know the average amount of money spent by these 12 women each year. Chances are it would sound like the national debt. However, one never knows. A year or so ago a French fashion expert visited New York City for the first time. He roved the streets and visited shops of that fabulous city for a few days and then announced, in an interview in the New York Times, that the best-dressed women were the secretaries and business women. For good taste and suitability, he said, they outranked the social butterflies and the truly wealthy women. Mrs. Kennedy apparently just naturally knows how to right for the occasion and designing some of the clothing come, recently was quoted by AP as saying of Mrs. Kennedy "The Jackie Kennedy look will sweep the country. It will develop in France and Italy. most talked-about, the most world. For the first time in history all the elements are present to make a tremendous fashion story the looks, the age, style sense of the next First Lady. Measure that against what we've had in the past. They've been been very fine ladies, but minus zero to the fashion world. Cassini, described as 47, dapper and muslached, declared had he had always "glorified never been defended by anyone except me." In the past, Mrs. Kennedy has been a customer of the Paris couture, and par ticularly was said to follow the "avant garde" designer, Givenchy. "A most un-Givenchy designer, Cassini delights in revealing the figure wrote Marylln Bender of the New designers say Jacqueline Kennedy is "fantastically chic" and one said she would be well-dressed, even on a budget. "She approaches the subject of clothes with the same quali ties that gained political success for her husband confidence, individuality, a mind of one's own and a knowledge of the issues." Mrs. K. was described as a "pace setter" who wore sausage skin pants, streaked hair, chemise dresses and sleeve less tunics long before they were generally popular. Con trarily, she is said to be a disciple of "the little black dress" but also subscribes to "unabashed color" in reds, pinks, yellows and greens. She goes hatless whenever possible, and therefore brings no joy to the milliners. She wears little jewelry. - The Kennedy's daughter, made clothes news in Washington. The Post reported that little Caroline and her governess, plus a secret service man, went shopping, taking along a list of articles which Mrs Kennedy had made out. They fabulous shop which outfits afford Diors and Balenciagas for themselves. The Post said that Caroline sat alone, drawing doodled sketches of snails on a note pad, while costumes of "little princess elegance" were offered for her approval. The Post reported that she took home from a $6.95 bathing suit to which cost $125. Before any thrifty Republican begins to mutter, let us report that both of Vice-President Nixons daughters wore Estelle Parker dresses for their father's inauguration in 1953. It is reported that in addition to the hand-embroidered cloth ing for girls which is so expensive, Miss Parker's establish ment turns out "christening gowns for the DuPonts, flag bedecked towels and sheets for the yacht of a Texas oilman . . . and dainty pale blue handstitched lingerie for Princess Grace of Monaco." Miss Parker's staff once made monogrammcd sheets and other linen for Mrs. Kennedy's mother, Mrs. John B. Kelly ordered Princess Grace's household linen at that shop, and the Duchess of Windsor is a Parker customer. Caroline Kennedy has been wearing Parker originals since she could walk, and friends of the Kennedys ordered clothing for her little brother.
