Balmain's
Lines Are
Quiet Style
By ALINE MOSBY
United Press International
Paris-OIPD-Designer Pierre
Balmain - presented his fall
winter line in the Paris style
parade Tuesday with a col
lection In his usual quiet style.
No matter what other de
signers do, Balmain continues
to make elegant clothes that
could be worn by queens or
rich housewives in any city
for 15 years and always be
In perfect taste. -
One of his few changes was
to banish bare arms instead,
his cocktail dresses and some
afternoon dresses had ' cap
sleeves.
Many of the dresses were
in a "princess style" gently
flaring skirt, waist only slight
ly indicated, with a bow or
tiny half-belt placed under
the bustline.
Balmain quickly abandoned
the puffed-up shoulder he
tried last season. The. suit
and coats had a natural
shoulder.
Wide Sleeves
Some of his coats had a
wide sleeve. Most were cut
fuller in the back, pointing
up the fact that Paris has vir
tually abolished the fitted
redingote coat this season. His
coats usually had tiny, stand-
up collars.
Some suit jackets were to
the hlplinc, others were nip
ped off at the waist, and all
hung loose. Suit sleeves were
narrow and to the wrist and
skirts narrow and just cover
ing the knees.
The tall Balmain models
who casually dragged their
mink coats down the runway
all wore large pearl choker
necklaces and large pearl but
ton earrings.
Even cocktail and evening
outfits were complimented by
mink tarns with a wind-swept
look.
Balmain's favorite color ap
peared to be a red the color
of strawberry Ice cream. For
evening he used many Orient
al brocades for coats. Many
evening gowns were of cham
pagne or pale silver brocaded
silks. Earlier American buy
ers greeted designer Jacques
Helm's long-skirt line with
little enthusiasm.
Potp
ourn
"Please, won't someone bid on this marvelous piece of
art?" Implored Dunbar Carpenter last Friday evenine. Prac
tically everyone listening laughed, for Mr. C. was referrine
to a piece of. iron sculpture which he had made himself.
The auction took place during the benefit cocktail nartv
which the board of . Rogue Valley Art association' gave that
evening at Topsldes with Mr.-and-Mrs. Alfred S. V. Car
penter as hosts.' ' - ' ' '
, Every board member had promised to contribute a paint
ing or some other object to be auctioned and Dunbar's
offering was the figure of a skier in action, knees bent and
ski poles at a flying angle. Although the auctioneer made
it sound as if no one was Interested in his steel sculpture,
in reality it had created considerable interest and received
a lot of favorable comment. Bidding was brisk. and closed
with Carl Wlmberly, an avid ski fan himself, as the buyer.
- Top price during the auction was paid by Mr. and Mrs,
E. H. Loveness for one of Eugene Bennett's paintings in
spired by the big, glowing burners at valley lumber mills,
The Alfred Carpenters bought an oil donated by .Walter
Pappas, Medford architect. Mr. Pappas is a novice at paint
ing, we learned, but this oil, done in the Jackson Pollack
manner, was sought by several of the guests and bidding
was lively. . '
Mrs. Ralph Thompsen had to bid rather high to acquire
a metal wall piece which was the work of Jim Ragland.
Mr. R. had used metal pieces from various sources for the
work, and it had been named "The Hun."
Board members who do no art work-showed consid
erable ingenuity in their offerings. Richard Courtwright,
for instance, brought a novel piece contrived from a check
erboard and pieces of white chalk entitled "Charge at San
Juan Hill." Mr. Carpenter, the host, offered bouquets from
his garden and Mrs. Donald McGeary brought a big cake
with such mouth-watering . frosting that any number of
guests admitted that they thought of dipping in a finger
when no one was looking.
Two Cambridge university students here for the summer,
Nick Halton and Tony Payne, offered the first bids on the
cake. Robby Collins then bid on it for Mrs. Nion Tucker,
up from San Francisco for the summer, who had invited
the visiting students to her home on the Rogue river for
luncheon on Saturday. The cake must have made a sump
tuous dessert for the luncheon. -
When the money from the party was tallied up, associa
tion members were jubilant, for almost a thousand dollars
was netted. The funds are needed for redecoration of Rogue
gallery. The auction brought in more than $500, donations,
admissions and money derived from the sale of refreshments
accounted for the remainder. '
Mrs. Brandt Bartels, Mrs. Alfred Carpenter and Robby
Collins were the efficient committee for the party, which
turned out to be one of those real fun events.
One of the students from England had been quoted shortly
after his arrival as having said that the gardens he hr.d
seen in America compared unfavorably with the Engli'1!
gardens. He admitted Friday he had not seen the gardens at
Topsidcs when he made the Tcmark. There are many other
lovely gardens in the valley we wish the young man could
see before he returns to England in the tall. O.S.
