Which is just opposite to why most of us trim our hair short! * * * Getting back to the social whirl — the return of Sir Charles Mendl from France was the occasion for many dinners in his honor, one of the most charming being given by Mrs. Dolly Walker, whose father planned and developed most of beautiful Beverly Hills where most of our stars live. Sir Charles arrived with Joan Fontaine on his arm. She was completely exotic in a bright red Parisian gown, and to sei off this daring ensemble, Joan had cut her blonde locks almost as short as Mary Martin's. Joan told me she had done the snipping herself! Red was certainly the favorite color of the evening for the gals' gowns. Ann Miller, in flame-colored chifton, was escorted by goodlooking lawyer William V. O'Connor. Mrs. Walker, the hostess, was also in red — almost matching the colorings of her drawing room. Just by way of being different, red-headed Arlene Dahl, one of the town's great beauties, wore emerald green — but it remained for Janet Gaynor to appear in the most startling frock of all. Inspired by her recent trip to Africa with her husband, the noted designer, Adrian, Janet's silk and clinging gown resembled a tiger skin, stripes and all. On her, it looked good — but on anyone else, it would have been terrible.
