designer of Diana Lynn’s dress in “Bitter Victory” MISS HEAD designs the kind of dresses we all love because they’re so easy to wear and so flattering. She’s a great believer, too, in fashion tricks that add zest and a new look to an outfit and she reports on some of the stars’ favorite “wardrobe pickups.” Diana Lynn adds crisp, lacy collar and cuff sets or a brief pique vest to a simple dress for a fresh style trick. She has several wide belts of starched white lace and embroidered organdy belts which she wears with deep-toned afternoon frocks and new summer linens. Gail Russell made a pair of white pockets in embroidered pique. She sewed them to a narrow scarlet band and then tied the band around the waist of a scarlet linen dress. She also has a soft blue pique peplum and a pair of matching gloves which she wears with a navy linen dress. Mona Freeman and her baby daughter sport starched lace suspenders over their cotton frocks and Wanda Hendrix wears tiny shoulder capes (they’re really king-size collars) with her strapless evening gowns. You’ll notice that all of these “fashion frosting” tricks are young, fresh and washable. As Edith Head stresses again and again, if there’s one thing the average Miss America needs, it’s a wardrobe that’s adaptable to changes — clothes that a girl can stretch with accessories, jewelry, and scarves. wherever you live you can buy photoplay fashions If the preceding pages do not list stores in your vicinity where Photoplay Fashions are sold please write to the manufacturers listed below.
