FASHION NOTEBOOK
Is Atomic Submarine
Next for Fashion Show?
By ELENI
Star Fashion Writer
Not long ago we saw a
fashion show in a Jet. Last
weekend we saw one on the
largest aircraft carrier yet
commissioned, the USS Inde
pendence at the New York
Naval Shipyard.
(The skipper, incidentally,
of the carrier is Captain
Rhodam Y. McElroy, Jr. USN,
who lives in Falls Church,
Va.)
To date we haven’t received
an invitation to see a show

We can report that a fash

Fashion Chit Chat —We
lunched recently with Ida
Rosenthal and her daughter,
Beatrice Coleman at THE
FORUM the place that turn
ed a Rockefeller away be-
cause he had no reservation.
In a business largely domi
nated by male executives
though it’s strictly a feminine
one, these two women have a
slogan just about anyone in
the undergarment business
would love to have: "I
dreamed I went . . . dancing
... to a diplomatic din
ner . . . opened a convention
. . . etc., in my MAIDEN
FORM BRA.”
For 30-some-odd years Ida
Rosenthal has been in the
"engineering” business. “You
see,” she told me. “it’s more
a question of engineering
than fashion in our business.”
First comes fit and then the
trimmings.
The uplifting business in
which she and her daughter
are engaged is classified by
her as “working with what

MID-WINTER
FASHION
FESTIVAL
Manhattan, the fashion
capital of the United States
(staunch New Yorkers will
tell Jmu of the world), is
having a two-day fashion
festival for mid-winter vis
itors to the city.
The Fifth Avenue Open
ings will all pay tribute to
the fashion genius of the
United States twice a year
with fabulous window dis
plays in all the stores ex
cept Bonwlt Teller’s.
Today and tomorrow
mark the first inauguration
of the fashion plan which
will include a formal din
ner and a luncheon to pre
sent more than 100 orig
inal designs from approx
imately 50 leading Amer
ican designers.
What’s the big idea? To
give credit where credit is
due. To American design
ers who deserve praise, if
it is well-earned, and to
have it credited against
their account rather than
that of France, Italy, Spain,
or other global areas.
nature gave us and improv
ing on it.”
Recounting some of the
highlights of the past 36
years, Ida Rosenthal, in a
witty and highly Intelligent
manner, paused to reflect
upon the 20’s when a com
petitive firm came out with
a slogan, too. “Look like
your brother,” Ida Rosen
thal told us was what it
said. She shook her head and
said. What happened to the
slogan? It died fast and so
did the firm.
Facts galore came pouring
out during the luncheon. Fif
teen year* ago tearose was
the top color choice .of
women in brassieres. Now
over 90 per cent of the bras
sold are in all white.

We Laughed At Lilly
Dache’s showing for the
Fashion Editors In New
York we discovered why pub
licity people turn gray. The
party was Oriental in theme
and to carry it out a special
batch of fortune cookies had
been ordered from a Chi
nese bakery.
The strips of paper were to
quote Lilly and were made
to read something like “Lilly
Say, girl who wear lots of
eye makeup should under
play lipstick color.”
All the words of beauty
and fashion wisdom how
ever went astray and some
Chinese restaurant devotees
on opening their fortune
cookies probably wondered
what Is was all about.
