each decided to present the four ballerinas — Margot Fonteyn, Moira Shearer, Pamela May and Beryl Grey —with day and evening ensembles, everyone on the job sighed with relief when the hard-working dancers finally found time for the first fittings.

Short Hair It is noticeable that all the ballgrinas prefer clothes with sharply accented lines and colors which, although on the dark side, nevertheless give their personalities full play. For instance, one choice of Margot Fonteyn's was thunder blue and black; an evening gown made for Beryl rey was pewter gray satin, ‘Worth designed an evening gown for Pamela May in cinnamon brown and black striped taffeta, Moira Shearer had her red hair in mind when she chose shades of bottle ‘and apple green for two or three of her dresses. Incidentally, Riche, the famous London coiffeur, who designed special hair-styles for all the ballerinas has persuaded them to adopt short hair, in spite of the tradition of long smoothlybrushed braided coiffures. He has solved this problem by providing long hair switches which can be worn on the stage and are indistinguishable from the dancers’ own hair.

Instead, v'hen Hardy Amies made aj blue-grey suit for Margot Fonteyn! he gave her a skirt with a slim| effect but with plenty of room! for movement. Hip = length jackets, either full or of the boxy type, are favored by two of the dancers. Amies has made a hip-length model in black Irish; tweed with a very full back and] lined with black fur for Miss] Fonteyn. Michael Sherard lined a white box-cloth jacket with black] sealskin coney which the dancer) will wear over a slim black] woolen skirt. For traveling, a practical fur skirt to match can| be buttoned over the woolen one.

Reversible Dress Indicative of the decided lines which all the ballerinas prefer, is-a grey and pink reversible satin cocktail dress made for Miss Fonteyn by Bianca Mosca; the wide, draped pocket effect on; one side is balanced on the other by softly hanging folds. The low boat-shaped neckline is dramatically filled with roses. All four dancers will appear at some time in practical strapless short dinner dresses which, by a matching fitted jacket, can be
