x he Fall Dress Outlook Is Brignt

THURSDAY, JULY 22, 1943

Xi == 1. The Russian influence is felt in both color and design of this two-piece ensemble of soft wool designed by Nettie Rosenstein. A plain black dress, figure-flattering and slim, is topped by a cerise jacket with biack braid scroll work on the pockets. Cossack | style hat of Persian lamb with grosgrain bows front and back carry out the Russian effect.

2. Delightfully gay in both color and mood, this two-toned semiwrapper of soft wool and jersey, designed by Claire McCardell, catches the mood of “going places.” Of bright lavender, it has Kelly green bracelet-length sleeves and matching green tie belt. Deep pockets on one side, fullness in front and green crystal buttons down the opposite side are featured.

3. From the fall collection of Maurice Rentner, this puttybeige sheer wool one-piece dress shows the wide inset belt with narrow over-belt of self material. Huge gilt buttons are an unusual feature, buttoning down skirt and shoulder flaps.

WHAT'S YOUR FIRST fall dress going to look like? Well, the outlook is bright. That's the word from New York where the New York Dress institute this week is sponsoring the showing of the fall collections by the country’s outstanding design-

” ” EVEN THE BEIGES this season have new color strength and intensity. One thing is certain, there's no place at all in the coming style scene for wishy-washy

neutral tones. A very effective model made in this new beige was both Russian and Chinese-in-spired, a combination of national trends to be found in all leading collections. Its Russian tunictype blouse, which is buttoned across the left shoulder and under the arm with gold bone buttons, has a short, flat peplum embroidered with gold passementerie braid in a delicate Chinese motif. The skirt is pencil slim, as are 90 per cent of them this fall. » » »

editors and buyers are viewing will crop up soon in local shops. Prominent among the designers gpresented in the preview are Claire McCardell who styles are featured here by Ayres’; Maurice Rentner, one of Block's favorite fashion sources, and Nettie Rosenstein whose slim and vivid creations appear at Wassen's. Other designers represented are Jo Copeland, Brownie, Ben Reig, Kass, Anthony Blotta, Clare Potter, Hattie Carnegie, and the ex-Hoosier, Norman Norell. 2 2
