Behind-the-Scenes Report Made of Swimwear Design By GAY PAULEY UPI Women's Editor New York - (ITU - More goes into a bathing suit than the figure which eventually fills it. As the winter cruise sea son opens ana tne bathing suit sales season for 1 9(33 be gins, we went behind the scenes at one manufacturer's for a report on the "anatomy" of a swim suit. The suits the woman buys for the winter cruise or for next summer's beaches have been in the works as long ago as September 1961. Taeko, the 27-year-old chief design er for Maidenform hwim- wear, said she begins a new collection more than a year ahead of when it reaches 'he sales counter. Right now she's at work on 1964 - has been since last September. Taeko. a native of Los An geles and of Japanese parent age, said a bathing suit starts either from her first glimpse of a fabric she likes or her first idea for a sketch. She cited one Instance where fab ric determined design-a slim, classic suit except for a dou ble row of ruffles down the center front to the waist,' in the manner of trim on a lit tle girl's dress. The suit was made of dotted Swiss, tradi tional fabric of children's wear, but modernized for swim suits by being elasti cized. Taeko said she will make as many as 300 designs for one collection. She creates a resort collection and one for summer, with the latter also including best sellers from re sort. From that 300, the firm may end up putting no more than 50 on the market. She said the design staff, the sales force, the executive depart ment all meet to determine what will be manufactured. With Staff Taeka works with a staff of two assistants and two sample makers - and occa sionally with the unofficial assistance of two Siamese cats she and hor husband own. The cats - Maynard and Pat ch! - enjoy a visit to her of fice, she said. All suits, before they go into mass production, get a wearability and durability test at Maidenform's labora tories in Bayonne, N. J. Machines fest-stretch the fab rics, a machine called the "Fade-omctor" checks its color-fastness against sun and salt and fresh water. Sunlight is duplicated by a carbon arc. which produces flashes of simulated sol. Girls also pool test them for comfort. Taeko said production be gins with the inner construc tion suits, no matter what their outside fit, have a firm to -the -body inner construc tion. Seven Types As many as seven types of construction are used - to "embrace" the figure from the slimmisl to the plumpest D-cup. Some constructions give more lift to the bust, haul in the excess at the waistline, and mould the hips. Others for the nearly perfect figure are less complex. The designer was born Taeko Yamamoto "Yama molo in Japanese is like Smith in America." she laughed. "When I first came to work for Maidenform, peo ple who couldn't remember my name just called me Miss Smith." Her parents are Mr. and Mrs. Masan Yamamoto of Gardena, Calif., a Los Angel es suburb. In private life, she is Mrs. Fred Kallin, wife of on industrial designer. Taeko is a graduate with an associate in arts degree from the Los Angeles Trade Tech nical school and has been de signing for six years. A tiny woman with meas- i urcments to fill a bathing suit neatly (34-24-33), she often violates her own axiom that "no girl over 16 should wear a Bikini."

The manufacturer recom mended use of a protective pad for two reasons: First, it will help protect the bedding from dust and dirt. Second, the body produces a half pint of mcisture during a night's sleep. Without a washable pad. the' moisture can ruin a mattress. ' That time-honored method of cleaning a mattress - beat ing it - may shorten Its life considerably, said the com pany. Rather than beating, go over the bedding surface once a month with a whisk broom or the upholstery at tachment of a vacuum clean er. This removes surface soil and hclns fluff the interior. To clean slightly soiled mattress ticking, use dry suds from a solution of lukewarm water and mild soap or de tergent. Rinse with a sponge wrung out of clear water, and n. sure to let one side dry thoroughly before cleaning the other. Be careful not to get the FITT: SEAFOOD & POULTRY 131 W.
