Siamese Knickers, Choli Blouse Make Glamorous Lounge Outfit
By ELIZABETH TOOMEY
United Press Staff Correspondent
New York—U.S.P. Wait until the little woman comes home with a pair of Panung trousers, a Choi blouse, and something that was inspired by an oriental "Muu-Muu."
They're all included in a populat
line of leisure clothes previewed
the week's fashion shows sponsored by
the New York dress institute.
Paning trousers, says Tina Leser,
the designer responsible for the Far
Eastern clothes, are slim knickers
adapted from pants worn in Siam.
She uses pale blue Siamese silk
trimmed with gold for one pair of
trousers. Worn with a matching
sleeveless blouse and gold trimmed
stole, it makes a glamorous lounging
outfit.
The Choli blouses are sleeveless, with tiny standup collars. Fortunately, Miss Leser streamlined her "Munu-Munu," which in the original version was a sort of shapeless Mother Hubbard distributed by missionaries in the Orient. This spring's version has an off-the-shoulder neckline, tiny puffed sleeves, a tucked bodice and a narrow belt that gathers the skirt fullness into a becoming dress.
Claire McCardell, another designer of casual clothes, takes a strictly American viewpoint for spring and announces a "chemise dress." It's pleated from shoulder to hipline, to waistband to the "sit line." She showed the chemise dress both in cotton georgette and silk shantung.
Daytime dresses and suits for spring are cut along slimmer lines, although Christian Dior. French designer who showed his American spring collection, insists skirts can be either slim or full, whichever makes the woman "still more beautiful."
Dior also likes slightly longer suit jackets, in contrast to shorter jackets shown by most American designers for spring.
Spring coats can be any length, from a short jacket with a cape look to a full-length flaring coat.
An Eton topper, slim, with a cutaway front and a slight dip in the
back shown by Monte-Sano and Pruzan in both red fleece and foxtrimmed lame for evening wear. Reversible coats, first seen last fall, are back for spring too in smooth, double-faced wools. Even the old favorite princess-cut coat got its share of attention, often brightened with a gay lining. Jane Derby lined her black street coats with white.
"It's a dare-to-be different season," one designer said. "We've made familiar lines look new with new fabrics, unusual linings, and unexpected trimmings."
