Focus on Fashion • • .
Dior Makes Grade
With Younger Set
By MARCIE MacDONALD
Collegian Society Editor
Some American designers are capitalizing on what may have
been a cool reception in this country to Christian Dior's new H-line
by producing pint-sized versions of his creations for children.
Although some flat-look designs have won some praise by
American women, this new look certainly is more becoming on the
average four-year-old than the
average forty-year-old. r r lend
Christian just had the right idea
for the wrong age group,
Spring fashions are appearing
in all the magazines now, despite
the fact that about half the nation
is sloshing through snow and sleet.
And spring, of course, has always
been synonomous with new hats.
McCall's February issue shows
a hat collection that, for a
change, doesn't stress one-and
only-one new silhouette. So for
a change most of us can wear
what's becoming to us and still
be fashionable about it.
Take your choice—there are
berets, pixie caps, sailors, modi
fied floppy picture hats, an d
cloches. And as far as color goes,
you can practically mix your own.
Last year's princess dress has
won a permanent place in the
American woman's wardrobe,
from sub-teen to misses sizes.
New versions shown, include
front and back princess panels
with gather e d sides, and
softened, draped neckline ef
fects flowing into princess lines.
Three cheers for this.
Just •as a sideline, we recently
talkad to a • Scotch boy attending
prep school in Maryland about
what men's styles are like in
Scotland. He explained that kilts
are more or less a dress uniform
sort of thing, worn with dinner
jackets for formal occasions. For
the most part, he said, Scots wear
about the same type of clothes as
American men.
So it would appear we have
copied the kilt but changed its
time and place considerably.
The middy blouse your moth
er wore in gym classes (with
long black stockings ma black
knee-length bloomers) is on the
agenda again for 1955 sportwear
and suit dresses. You can have
it in imported wool or straight
from your midshipman . boy
friend's seabag. .
As far as the new suits go, and
they'll probably go everywhere,
longer, straighter jackets are the
by-word. In hotter weather, long,
straight overblouses will pick up
where the suits leave off. These
look fine on the tall, willowy
type, but for most people this
makes them look like they're
walkinr on their knees.
The shirt dress has blossomed
out for spring and summer in silk,
satin, and wonderful orlon and
dacron mixtures, with pencil or
billowy skirts, as you like it.
Meanwhile, girls, back at the
Penn State ranch, bundle up in
your knee socks, storm coats
and stadium boots. There's a
lot of winter left in the almanac,
and State College will get its
lion's share, you can be sure.
