Gray Flannel Suits Mark Guy Laroche Collection By ALINE MOSBY United Press International Paris -HIPB- "The woman in the gray flannel suit" will be on the commuter trains tnis year. Designer Guy Laroche. pre senting his collection In the fall-winter Paris fashion week, paraded his pretty manne quins in charcoal gray wool suits and dresses, as did the House of Nina Rlcci Tuesday. One suit that could be pair ed with a lady executive's briefcase, for example, had a eollarless jacket to mid-hip, loosely cinched with a narrow brown leather belt and gar nished with (our little flap pockets. His suit shoulders were natural and the narrow . skirts Just hid the knee. His charcoal gray dresses, dim as a reed, were moulded through the waist and usually beltless, following the prin cess line that appears to be the main dress silhouette for winter. Gray lor Evening Laroche even went gray for evening. A sky gray wool ribbed cocktail suit with a short, open Jacket had a lining of dark gray oilcloth-like fab ric with, a matching tarn. Laroche also splashed pink throughout the collections. He Showed narrow deep pink wool coats, prlnccss-line pale pink crepe cocktail dresses and pink-and-gray tweed suits. One pink coat had a taupe Ilk lining, with pink shirt and taupe blouse underneath. A cocktail outfit was of spar kling pink brocade, a narrow Ikirt topped by a casual pull over. Another Laroche trend was fur dresses, vests and fur aleeves on one cloth coat, De spite the wilting July heat, his models managed to keep warning in such winter antl. frosters as a black seal coat with leopard collar and match ing hat. A black wool gabar dine coat had black mink sleeves. The audience decided his mannequins in brown-and- white ponyskin suits would be snug in a chilly English home but definitely overheat ed In the United States. Recognises Curves Laroche definitely recoKniz- cd that females have curves. His simple princess-line wool dresses with long sleeves were usually beltless and with a seam or gathers underneath the bustline. The same flattering femi nine line continued into the cocktail dresses. He showed many beige, white and pink crepes as well as traditional black, and all were short. Two coats that brought ap plause were one of navy blue seal, over a navy blue crepe dress, and another of black satiny oilskin like cloth, belt ed and pert, with black seal collar and cuffs. The model peeled out of this to show a slinky short evening shift of the same satiny cloth with a shirred front and crossed straps over the bare back.
