Best Dressed Woman Competes In Glamour Magazine Contest
By Leta Cathcart (Society Editor)
With little previous experience, Kathy Stormont, Greenwich, Conn. junior, has become a contestant in a national fashion competition.
Miss Stormont is the KU candidate for Glamour's Best Dressed Girl contest. The choice was made on her poise, fashion sense, posture, grooming and ability to meet people.
31 candidates were first chosen from all women's living groups. The contestants were then narrowed down to ten.
AT THE FINAL fashion show,
Miss Stormont was selected to represent KU in the national contest. KU's contest was sponsored by AWS Fashion Board.
Engagements
Jane Schulz, Russell sophomore, Camma Phi Beta, to Charles Hurty, Wichita Junior, Sigma Alpha Epsilon.
Jane Miller, Wichita freshman, to Donald Lueke, Mission senior.
Cindy Snyder, Bethesda, Md., junior, Hashinger, to Don Rea, North Kansas City, Mo., junior, Kappa Sigma.
Martha Ahrens, Topeka sophomore, Delta Gamma, to Ed Bachofer, Salina junior, Kappa Sigma.
The KU winner modeled for a short time in Pasadena, Calif. when she was in high school.
Miss Stormont modeled three outfits, one each for school, formal and church wear. An orange wool skirt, a striped blazer, and dark brown purse and shoes was the outfit Miss Stormont chose for school year.
For formal wear, Miss Stormont wore a black crepe cocktail dress with scoop neck and petal sectioned-over panels. Her accessories were black silk shoes and black gloves. To explain her version of church wear, Miss Stormont wore a navy blue suit, a white choir-boy blouse, with a small straw hat and white gloves.
ACCORDING TO Miss Stormont,
good clothes sense is innate. She said
most people know what colors are
compatible, but some are unable to
choose items in their wardrobe to
coordinate with other items.
After having won the KU contest, Fashion Board financed her application to Glamour Magazine's contest. The application consisted of three pictures, a personality profile, her campus activities, the basis for the KU contest and the publicity given the event.
Miss Stormont's pictures feature her in front of Dyche Hall, on the inside walkway of Murphy Hall and on the backstage of the University Theater in Murphy.
The selection of the Glamour semi-finalists is to be announced soon. Miss Stormont said. The 30 semi-finalists will be selected from girls from colleges and universities all over the United States.
TEN FINALISTS in the national competition will be chosen by the middle of May, Miss Stormont said. If Miss Stormont is one of the finalists, she will go to New York. She will be featured, with the other nine winners, in the fall issue of the magazine.
Despite her title of best dressed woman on campus, Miss Stormont belongs to the cult who wear sweatshirt and jeans. "My summer slacks are almost all levis," she said.
Miss Stormont does not fit the popular image of the fashionablydressed eastern co-ed forging her career in the stimulating atmosphere of New York City.
