Boston—(UP)—A blonde interior decorator of strictly modern design says antiques are going out of fashion "because you can't put your feet on 'em."
Furniture That Fits Your Curves Is Taking Over, Decorator Says
Miss Christina Nute, who did a budget-minded styling job at a sample home in a veteran's housing project in Newton, said the trend in furnishings is toward informality. People $ \textcircled{1} $
just aren't going for creaky chairs equipped with wormholes.
"We live too fast, need more relaxation," she said. "The furniture our grandmothers used was so formal they had to sit upright. Could not slouch anyway on account of their stays."
Today, with a two-way stretch you can slouch in comfort, she said. "The old Boston rocker may look nice—simple and all that—but you can't put your feet on it," she said.

Miss Nute, who says she has three beds and uses them on alternate nights, thinks it's only logical people should start discarding antiques.
