HERALD AND NEWS. Klamath Falls. Ore. Tuesday. .Tulv 14. 195!) PAGE THREE Queen Liz Of England Target For Mode Experts By FRANCES LEWINE Associated Press Staff Writer A little girl in Chicago looked at Queen Elizabeth and lamented: "But mommy, she's not wearing a long dress." !A Toronto woman in her 80s raised an eyebrow at the Queen in. a cool, gray and white checked outfit and said with surprise: "She looks like a little girl." From the very young to the very old, Britain's Queen Eliza beth II is fair game for the fash ion critics. Nobody is quite sure what a 10th century Queen should wear. But getting drama into her day time dresses seems to be the big problem. Pedestrian, girlish, unimagina tive is the way some newspaper men and women traveling with the Queen have described her daytime I wardrobe in the first weeks of her tour across Canada." j They have applauded the gay colors jade, bright pinks, yellows and especially becoming turquoise blues and the glamorous full skirted "every inch a queen" evening dresses. But the shirtwaist type, pleated skirt, undramatic daytime designs are criticized as not doing justice to the attractive 33-year-old 5-foot- S Queen. Some feel more should be nvade of the Queen's trim waistline. For her Chicago visit, a high spot of the tour, the Queen step ped ashore in one of her dressiest morning costumes and made a hit. "Overdressed as a tourist, but not as a Queen," the Chicago Tri bune commented. The Queen wore a full-skirted oyster white lace dress, reim broidered in shades of brown and accented with a beige and brown taffeta cummerbund sash. With it went a matching wide brimmed hat, white accessories, a triple strand of pearls, small pearl ear rings and a diamond pin at the left shoulder. The dress was by Hardy Amies, who with Norman Hartnell, anoth er London designer, has provided the Queen's royal tour clothes, Her handbag is always one with straps to be held on her arm so she can have her hands free for ceremonial duties. Her hats have been cloche and to que styles with organza and draped chiffon, and some pert straws. Her shoes, mostly white and beige on this tour, have been open-toed and slingbacked, with moderate heel. As one fashion writer put it "a bit slocky by cur rent stiletto standards." Like any other woman, the eueen suffers from wind-blown skirts and hats. When the Queen's taffeta dress billowed up above her royal knees in Toronto, a British newspaper woman moaned that it had not been properly weighted and said with a laugh "heads will roll." Once, the Queen changed her hat after a morning of worrisome wind. It is reported she gets a choice of three hats to go with each day time dress. In charge of the Queen's ward robe is .Margaret (Bobol Mac Donald, a Scotswoman who has served Elizabeth since childhood and has the title of her majesty's "principal dresser." Aboard the royal yacht Britan nia the queen gets a chance to re lax, and she often dons slacks and sweaters. She has appeared on deck coming into port with a ker chief about her head and wearing dark sunglasses. The Queen's clothes in no way affect her popularity. But there are many who wish she could get more movie-star glamor out of them. Married Couples!
