Sampsell - Trager Rite To Be Read Saturday

By MARGUERITE YOUNG Times Special Writer NEW YORK, March 1.—Jeep suits, slacks and windbreakers, tough denim overalls — in short, real work clothes—will be the height of fashion for the 1943 victory gardener, a survey of shops indicates. Normally at this time Gotham suburbanites become convinced that there will be one more spring as counters blossom forth with cute dressy gardening costumes. But youll find little of that sort of - thing around this season. There doesn’t seem to be enough denim to go ‘round. One New York store, which used to lead the gardening fashions parade, wails: “We'd give a lot to be able to lay hands on 10,000 blue denim overalls for women who work in factories and gardens, too.”

Several other large stores are directing customers seeking garden togs to their work clothes department. There they can find plain, but practical, overalls which can be “dressed up” nicely with a brightly contrasting sweater or shirt. Claire McCardell has designed a new dress, especially for gardening. It is a one-hook wrap-around of crisp gingham in blue, red, brown, green or navy stripes, sleeveless, with a deep arm hole for freedom of action.
