NEW YORK FASHION SHOWS
DEMONSTRATE STYLE CHANGES
By KAY LAWRANCE
A. P. CORRESPONDENT
This is the big week of the fash-
ion showings in New York. And
during this advance showing of
clothes for fall. I am reminded of
the fact that our top designers are
interested in history and travel.
As a matter of fact, some of the
best history students are fashion
designers. This goes for geography,
too.
Globe-trotting designer. Hannah
Troy, is presenting a fall collection
of new clothes which she says prove
that women do dre-,s to please men.
after all. She says: ' The loud cries
of male anguish which greeted this
summer's sack dresses have been
heeded. So there are no more shap-
less chemines in view, no more of
the grotesque silhouettes. Instead,
designers have shaped and modi-
fied the unfitted silhouette into such
a variety of styles that any woman
should be able to find a flattering
wearable outfit for fall."
Most popular with Mrs. Troy, as
well as with many other top de-
signers, is the high waisted empire
line. It is shown in both slim and
flared versions, with accents just
below the bust in the form of loose
belts, bands or other trimming.
In Mrs. Troy's fall collection, the
spotlight is on the short evening
dress.
Her outstanding number was a
short evenng dress in ice blue satin,
with "pouffant" skirt and Ostrich
I hemline, worn with a matching
' coat.
Says Mrs. Troy: "Now that wo-
men are showing their legs again,
interest shifts to the hemline. And
can you imagine anything more in-
triguing than a moving, fluttering
fringe of ostrich about a pair of
beautiful American legs?"
