| Adrian Desig

For a New Leading Lady |! Fashions Make Debut In Show at Block's ve

Let's give Adrian an Oscar. His fashion picture is a. four-star production.

He is the Hollywood designer, you

| know, whose clothes have helped

to glamorize ‘more than one leading lady. Now he has a new heroine—

the retail trade. But he has done a good job of it. Considering his Hollywood background, one half expects them to be bizarre. They aren’t. At least the part of his collection shown kere last night left that impression. Block’s showed the creations at an invitational prevue in its terrace room. The designer appears to have studied the role of the woman in real life quite ag as he studies a screen star's rolé before creating costumes for her. He gave photogenic lines to Garbo and Crawford and Shearer (to mention only a few) through con-

it to Mrs. Indianapolis and ‘Miss %| Chicago, : Most important of all he Las stressed superb fabrics and fine detailed workmanship, of which American women are Bpcoming more and more conscious.

Unusual Shoulders ’

Two features of his clothes earmark them as Adrian’s. One is the grand way in which the skirts fit (sometimes with a subtle dropping of the hemline in back). is his shoulder treatment. The shoulders are firm and rounded and have those deep armholes which make for action ease. Often the sleeves are a continuation of a yoke treatment that may extend almest to the the waistline in the back, It’s just different than anything we've seen recently. It seems that one could almost recognize an Adrian’ designed suit or dress just from looking: at the back view of it. Adrian is definitely suit-minded. Most of his jackets fit well down over the hips and fasten all the way up to the throat. There is:dramatic use of color. Sometimes it is in contrast like the rust skirt and black jacket shown in last night's show. Sometimes it is in subtle blendings like a citron green dress with a long cape and sombrero type hat in a little brighter green. Coats Are Dramatic His coats are dramatic but not melodramatic. They don’t spell “movie queen.” A “bois de rose” topcoat shown last night had a floating back. : It actually did appear te float along back of the model as she walked. It, too, had that subtle dipping ‘of the hemline. His afternoon dresses take second place to his suits and coats. Notable, ‘however, were his’ ingenious. prints, one covered all over with whirling tops, another with great green ¢ leaves and still another with bright Le. red roosters scattered over a white background. He really lets himself go on hats. - There is ev from mammoth cartwheels to little berets, swathed in jersey snoods, and pixie hats. His formal gowns, as shown here, were highlights. He uses drapery

‘ |to do 80 much, including the dis-

guising of extra pounds. One of white had a great: ‘capelike ‘throw over .one shoulder and arm. The dress itself was a stark white sheath. Another of black lace had an off the shoulder line outlined: in a deli-

. “|eate lace ruffle, Catching up a great

froth of drapery at the hipline were two huge pink roses. : Success Story.

Perhaps, we were a little “conditioned” in our feeling about Adrian before we even got to the show. There is one man in town who knew him “when.” That was back in Waterbury, Conn, where Adrian's father wasn't say too well “situated,” The local man can recall the budding donigner as a boy, riding along hig father's ‘trash and garbage id with pencil and paper in hand, sketching away, oblivious to his “un-arty" dings. There followed his student days in Paris. Irving Berlin got him to do the costumes: f the Music Box’ ‘Revue in Kew: “Vi Next came contracts for the Valentino’ pictures. The success story. goes on from: there, in-

y|cluding Adrian’s marriage to the

petite Janet Gaynor. (R. R.).
