Cafe Society , Paramount’s lat¬ est gift to fashion-conscious film-fans, gilds that delicate English lily, Miss Madeleine Carroll, with the lavish creations of De¬ signer Edith Head. Playing a wealthy, hoydenish, but heart-of-gold sort of girl, Miss Carroll flits from smart restaurant to gay night-club, and even does a terrifying bit on an aquaplane. Though Head has de¬ signed a goodly number of sports and day¬ time things for this picture, its fashion significance is primarily based on a distin¬ guished presentation of the wide-skirted, glittering ball gown. Best example of this fashion is worn by Miss Carroll in the photo¬ graph on the opposite page. Kentucky , blessed with the lis¬ som loveliness of Loretta Young, is 20lh Century-Fox’s bid for fashion fame. Posed against a background of blue-grass, blueblooded horses and feuds between blueblooded families, it best lends itself to the sort of sports and daytime classics so dear to American women. And except for one or two fragile summer evening frocks, that is exactly what Designer Gwen Wakeling has given it. Best example of these clothes is the impeccably tailored tweed suit Loretta Young wears in the photograph at the right.
