By ROSELLEN CALLAHAN ¢ Times Special Writer WASHINGTON, May 28.—American designers face a new challenge to their ingenuity. During the past year they have shown that they could create beautiful clothes despite WPB's famous order L-85, restricting materials. Now WPB has amended L-85 with additional cuts and resirictions that will whittle the basic silhouette down to the last button hole, ruffle and bow. This further simplification, the WPB explains, is to step up the unit output of women’s and children’s clothing out of available cotton, rayon and wool fabrics. And the increased production of dresses, suits and coats resulting from the paring dewn ofs extravagant trimmings, sweep of skirts, and standardization of sizes will stave off any immediate need of clothes rationing. Here are some of the new clothes conservation limitations: For all women's, misses’ and junior misses’ dresses trimming is lim-
