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

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."

foam rubber mattress needs
no turning unless it's a rever
sible kind with a different
amount of firmness on each
side.
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.
