French Dress Can Be Walked On, Thrown In Corner And Still Worn
Paris—(U.P.)The American tourist, who is looking for a Paris dress she can throw in the corner, crumple in a suitcase, walk on and still wear with a flair between times, can find it this season.
"It's a knit," says Anny Blatt, pointing with pride to Mrs. Charles Feathers of San Francisco. Mrs. Feathers walked in this week in a 10-year-old Blatt costume, to order another one.
They hardly ever wear out, Mme. Blatt said.
If it goes out of style, just reblock it to a new shape.
And the way she and her colleagues are doing them this season, the knit dress looks as smart at a cocktail party as it does at the races.
A lace-patterned wool knit sell-
ware $150 is one of Mme Blatt's
farege.
Mme. Blatt owns wool and rayon factories and her experiments with new types of yarn have led her
into whipping up one fabulous gold glass evening dress. She is currently planning a new line of nylon knit sweaters and skirts.
Each dress is knit by hand to the measurements of the individual customer by trained knitters who work at home. The knit pieces are then sewn together in the salon. A complete dress takes a knitter between one and three weeks of full time needle clicking, Mme. Blatt said.
the majority of knit costumes shown are simple in design,
