‘Highlights ‘of ‘Mrs. Ida B. Wise

By MARGUERITE YOUNG Times Special Writer NEW YORK, Sept. 10.—The {fall openings of New York designers express American dressmakers who know they're on their. mettle, and revel in it. ? Two whole years have gone by since these designers looked at Paris creations there. Imports have dwindled until the Americans frankly call this a sink-or-swim season. Their new collections are influenced still by French ideas, especially the legendary leisure-time chic. But their clothes reflect also the gumptiousness that’s a national characteristic. The U. 8. designers are inspired by yesterday and tomorrow everywhere, from Queen Elizabeth to California - without - silk, . and sometimes they make up their styles right out of their heads. The variety is characteristic. The clothes. repeatedly state the great American theme: “Every woman can be welldressed.” Here are some definite : trends: The revealing clothes that evoked sermons and super- talk on the eve of the First World War-are revived in modern: spirit. There is more restraint—sometimes. Skirts are slit above the knee. The chemise dress appears. When the V-neck plunges (after dark) it plunges right down to the waist. Equally important are evening costumes of mystery and romance. The covered-up influence -reaches the stage of long-sleeved ‘threepiece tweed dinner suits with furlined capes, sweater-topped knitted dinner dresses, and gowns that are all soft drapery from hooded head to swathed torso and arms ¢ncased in matching gloves meeting and merging with short sleeves. . The line between all that evening allure, and daytime dress, is sharp. The latter is more purposeful than before. The timeless, classical shirtwaist dress is freshly done, with new adornments such as jabots down the front of the skirt.

Styles—In the French Manner

In the midst of ever-slimmer silhouettes, the narrow skirt is combined with bulk in the shoulders, a cape, or g tunic. Many skirts are full, both gored and straight ones. Shoulders are padded or not, as the designer pleases. Throughout the collections, color alone is creating style. Black is one, but only one, of the prediminating hues. Bergdorf-Goodman opened its doors and showed the press an emphatically American collection, presented in the French manner. the excitement and showmanship of the legendary French openings were there in the music, the lights, the models parading under the eight crystal chandeliers. Ca Brisk, beautifully cut ‘daytime clothes: inspired by the - French painter, Jacques Louis David, were featured. They adapted line’ and color from-the-late ‘Eighteenth Century artist’s classic and historic pictures. 2 There was a pert wool costume: Bottle green jacket, sulphur-colored weskit, fawn-colored skirt. Here were town suits for mature women —a superbly simple, beltless coat of soft plum wool—and here the classic any-age’s camel’s-hair coat, but this time in soft peacock blue with belt wound twice around the waist and tied in back. :

cours the answer to the style problems of and screen personalities. Behind it is a woman who sells chic wholesale and retail—Hattie Carnegie. " Her fashion director, Miss Cora, as she is known to Carnegie patrons throughout the country, is in Indianapolis today and tomorrow to meet patrons, by appointment, in Block’s French Salon. With her she brings news of the latest Carnegie designs — which begin around $80, but which are copied so avidly by the popular-priced designers that they eventually influence women who dress less expensively. Carnegie has a passion “to make women look nice.” As Miss Cora puts it: “She believes in ladies looking smart but at-the same time being flattered. - Her main objective is that clothes must be wearable— so wearable that women are not conscious of wearing them.” Sponsors Two-Piece Look For years she has promoted the “little black dress” and suits because they flattered so many women. She is doing the same thing this year in dresses with the twopiece look. Miss Cora chose one to wear at a small cocktail party in the Columbia Club. Of natural pigskin chiffon wool, the skirt achieved a softness in the unpressed pleats at the front. The jacket, with its vestee effect, was trimmed with buttons and a belt in pigskin, studded with black -pinheads. And though there was no notable padding in the shoulders, it was there —and is in the Carnegie creations despite the: sloping shoulders fad.

all With it she wore a black felt “little

boy’s cap.” Its trimming of tiny felt buttons was duplicated in ear buttons. The hat, too, was Carnegie-de-signed for the couturiere who was Macy’s cash girl at 13, a milliner at 15 and owner of a smart shop at 20 now also is known for her hats, jewelry, bags, cosmetics and furs.

Likes Ruby Tones

Ruby tones are one of the highlights of the Carnegie fall collection, including Taj Mahal (a pink ruby), Nepal (brilliant) and Burma (dark). Purples with tones of red place second in the newly-launched colors. But “always Carnegie loves the allblack look,” her fashion director

Soft dark color a-plenty for daytime clothes and the natural-lookin woman’s good figure are news in the current showings of American collections. And these two style points are exemplified here. Jay Thorpe designed the julep green crepe cress (left), draping the material from the back to form a simulated front peplum. The blue wool and velveteen two-piece dress shown (right) is designed by Bergdorf-Goodman. Its peplum ripples smartly forward but fit is emphasized, nevertheless.

Irene Castle Styles

This season one of the most talked about features of her collection is the 1914 fashions with the 1941 look. They harken back to the pre-war days when Irene and Vernon Castle were dancing.” Included are dresses combining satin sheaths, topped with tunics of tulle, and : straight sheaths with slit skirts. But the “covered up look” predominates in the evening dress pic‘ture this season, Miss Cora points out. There is a dominant note too in the number of dinner dresses, designed for twilight to midnight— glistening ones snipped short. On them Carnegie is using licorice and gunmetal bugle beads and tortoise sequins in simple designs. Just notes: 1941 lines are sure and dignified . . . may be pencil slim or peplum trimmed. . . .
