Paris Designers Create New
Styles “For Art’s Sake” Only
By ROSETTE HARGROVE
NEA Staff Correspondent
Paris, March 6 — Every effort Is
being made this season by the
Paris haute couture to emphasize
the importance of the fashion in
rtustty In the economic life of
France rather than as nn expres
sion of frivolity.
Stylists stress
the fart, that
the evening
dresses show n
were created
only ’’for art’s
sake."
In order to
avoid the crush
wltn c s s e d at
last seasons
showings, lead
ing co ulurlcrs
decided to hold
special presen
tations for the
press. The lat
ter, n c v erthc
less, were so numerous as to fill
the salons to capacity, as. for ex
ample at Maggy Rouff's collection.
Despite almost Insuperable material
difficulties, the styles shown by this
creator featured the same wealth
of details and fine handiwork, al
though the fabrics themselves were
definitely not comparable to pre
war standards. The general trend
ahows little change In silhouette,
novelty residing in details rather
than In new lines.
Afternoon costumes show hips
atlU accented, with full skirts gath
ered at the waistline. Many are
circular cut, with fullness main
tained by pleaded godets with the
Rosette Hargrove
Ull uoa-iw (iirabn. ivauv.n **••
phasls Is placed at the tops, with
generous fullness In bodices, which
are slightly bloused In back in for
mal dresses, while simpler models
■hows plain tailored fronts.
USE BOLD COLORS
Muggy Rouff features modernized
elbow-length leg o’ mutton sleeves,
often of Intricately worked patterns,
tiny plents and seaming, both on
formal afternoon dresses and coast.
Maggy Rouff also launches the
three-quarters sleeve with enormous
gauntlet cuffs, often in contrasting
fabric and color.
Ensembles alternate between full
length flared redlngotes over match
lng or contrasting dresses with
matching lining, and straight, un
fitted. unbelted box Jackets. Shoul
ders a! lthrough the collection show
a built, out, rounded line. .Suits
have wrist - length, man-tailored
Jackets with nipped-ln waists and
fewer pockets than last season
Skirts have slender kick pleats or
twin box pleats at back and front.
Many pastel and bold-colored
plaids are used both In dresses and
coats, but usually in the form of
plaid dresses and solid-colored full
length coast. Day timers replace
black with navy, greys, yellows,
warm browns, beige and grelge.
Many prints are used, mainly with
light grounds featuring all-over
allpaper designs or small motifs.
Evening costumes alternate ro
mantic hooped skirts and the sinu
ous draped line with decorative
effects massed at the bodice in the
form of paillette or else ‘'vestment''
embroidery, Intricate tucking or
down-thread work. Decolletes show
an ultra-low sweetheart line, usual
ly stressed with trimming.

Hare's One Way
To Solve Drastic
Escort Shortage
By MTU MIIAKTT
Recently the society column of a
New York newspaper mentioned the
close friendship between the present
wife and the ex-wife of the same
man. Bald the
writer: "Only
the prospects of
facing the stares
of the curious
keep the two
women from
sharing a box
at the opera
and attending
the theater as a
threesome with
their resistive,
past and pres
ent husband."
Why don't
they face down
those stares and Reth Mlllett
start a new, wartime vogue?
Suitable escorts are so few and
far between these days — and dl
. vorces are so frequent that so
ciety's manpower shortage would be
considerably relieved if a man look
j his ex-wlfe or wives along with
‘ his present one when going to par
‘ tics or seeing the town. Think how
many girls Tommy Manvllle could
l keep from sitting home alone, If he
| rang up all his wives every time he
, decided to go out for an evening.
SOI,VIC SHORTAGE
. It should be stimulating experi
1 enre for the wives, with the past
wife and the present, one compet
ing In looks, charm, clothes and
understanding.
And why should 'hidebound
Mnyfalrltcs of the old school”
look askance at such a solution to
the escort shortage.
If they don’t look askance at
divorce Itself, why should they
get upset about a triangle's turn
ing Into a coisy little club with
exclusive membership?
Especially when it would do so
much to solve the manpower
shortage from which society is
.suffering?

who Is suffering from an ailing

She hasn't yet read the book

Best preventive meaesures are a

STRAND
Listeners have long marveled at
Larry Adler's ability to draw from
a harmonica tones reminiscent of
many Instruments in a symphony
orchestra. On the sot of M-O-M's
“Music for Millions,'' In which he
Is featured with Margaret O'Brien.
Jose Iturbi and Jimmy Durante at
the Strand theater, the harmonica
virtuoso explained his technique.
To acieve a trum]>et effect, he
stands three feet behind the micro
phone, onens his hands on the har
monica and blows a sharp, brassy,
tone; for the “wah-wah” muted
trumpet sound, he stands closer to
the mike, opening and closing his
hands slowly; a violin tone is
achieved by fluttering the hands
fast and playing Into the mike from
a distance of ten or twelve Inches;
a cello tone comes from blowing
softly through the first three holds
of the harmonica, about six Inches
