"Designer Emphasizes ~ Interchangeables

By JOAN YOUNGER United Press Staff Correspondent

Simpson, stylist, sat in her mauve and lime showroom today and listed the do's and donts of travel wardrobes. 1 Among the do's she listed first, interchangeables; light colored Jackets that will do for day or evening, short skirts and evening skirts to go with them, halters for day or evening, and jerseys if you must

“With these things you could conceivably get along with one over‘night bag—even for a two-week stay,” she said. “Two jackets and two skirts make four costumes, add five halters, dickeys or washable blouses and you have 10 costumes. The Coat Problem She said that one pair of dressy, fow-heeled shoes could, if need be, take care of the day and evening shoe problem. A few scarves and shawls could handle the sudden cold and the hat problem. The coat problem, she said, could be solved in warm weather with one eout—a short one, good tor both daytime and evening wear. In epider weather, a short coat, plus a “Reavy coat, good in all weathers. _ “or travel by bus, car or train, Miss Simpson reluctantly advised adding a pair of slacks. 5 Neutral Tones Best MM don't like to see women in slacks,” she said, “but there's no getting around it, there's nothing like them for hard travel. They ihould be slipped out of and reiced with a skirt when you stop ; oe the road for dinner, or go into dining car.” - ~4dn choosing travel colors, Miss Even advised neutral shades: oy brown or navy for hard 1; beiges and grays for airplane or streamliner travel where : is not a problem.

: Fe By LOUISE FLETCHER : : Times Woman's Editor’ - : HULLABALOO, there is plenty of sound and fury popping in the style industry and its re“lated fields. Almost any day you can hear al from some ordinarily calm sector. ' One of the latest comes from the American - council, which presumably represents the wool textile The council, it seems, is just plain “sore” be- | cause the war production board won't toss its yardage restrictions into limbo now that victory is here. The WPB's decision to continie 1-85, the council says, Is “an

addlepated attempt to slam the lid on a fashion change and enforce stagnation of the nation’s fasliion industry.” (Coffee and pistols for

"NEW YORK, Nov. 6—Adele

The council goes on to say the 1946 woolen and worsted output for civilians will be at least 136 mil lion yards more than for any previous year. Just how much of this extra yardage will be needed to make new “civvies” for returning veterans isn't indicated. But the council feels there will be enough left over to afford a few pleats and gathers for wom “It is clear,” the

servation of fabrics is no longer a reasonable excuse for L-83's continued existence.”

A New Coating NOT QUITE so explosive but almost as exciting is news from other fabric fronts, Take thd new woolen introduced for fall by the Draper woolen mills. It's a 26-ounce live weight coating that provides ~without bulk. - Warm enough not to call for any interlining, the coating is still light in weight and versatile enough to wear 12 months a year. Po Draper woolens combine paca, mohair and sheep's wool. The new coating, while not a pile or fleece weave, still has depth and softness of texture. It has been made up by a group of six designing firms known as ‘the Draper master craftsmen. Coats by these houses, in junior, half and regular sizes, are being shown here by Ayres’, Block's and Wasson's.
