Fashion Envolvine Toward Curves By ALINE MOSBY Paris -IUPII- Women soon- possibly next season - will look like women with curves again. This is the conclusion reached after the semi-annual two -week Paris fashion parade, which wound up in its usual semi h y s t e r 1 cal Aim. Moby io examine the situation the way, diplo matic observers look over the East-West tangle, one could come to the conclusion that fashion is evolving toward rounded, larger shoulders, fit ted waistlines, slightly longer skirts and clothes shaped more to the bosom. None of this season's chang es was radical, but, as diplo matic observers say, they were "significant" straws in the wind. The next two seasons may I see sharper changes. I The fashion shows loued along at first with not much difference from the "old" nat ural shoulders, shift dresses and unfitted suits. The sole exception was Jac ques Helm s mid-calf skirts, which did not stir up much enthusiasm. Bohan Makes Changoi Then designer Marc Bohan at Dior emerged with football shoulders and some fitted suits with long Jackets and vented sides like English rid ing habits. In the next to the last showing, Hubert de Gi venchy exploded with many fitted, shaped suits. Bohan and Givcnchv are two of the four most influen tial designers in Paris. The other two, Cristobal Bulen- ciaga and Yves St. Laurent, stuck to the "old look." But buyers expressed the opinion that the Dior-Given-chy fitted waists will win out wiimn one or two seasons "Women are tired of look ing like little boys. They want clothes to fit the figure and iook feminine," one Califor nia buyer said. That same buyer six years ago was promoting the casual "little boy" look. Buyers seek changes in Par is because changes get women into the stores by making old clothes obsolete, Sume designers, such as Gabriclle Chanel and Pierre Balmain, will continue mak ing classic clothes and ignore all the changes. Summing up the 1963-64 collections the dictates includ ed: Suits - Fitted in the waist or still loose, with shoulders generally larger. Sleeves to the wrist or three-quarters. Skirts-Narrow and straight, covering the knee or one to two inches below, not much for trimmings on suits. Coals - Narrow coats and back half-belts are still with us. The newer look is a wider coal with back fullness falling straight from shoulders to hem. Fuller shoulders. Some capelcts, some attached scarves and many huge col lars to cover up cold noses. Afternoon Dresses - Extra simple narrow shifts with long sleeves, usually unfitted Annual Picnic Of Shrine Band Held at Woods Ashland Dr. and Mrs. Mar- B. Woods were hosts last week to almost a hundred guests who gathered in their garden for an evening steak barbecue.
