On May I 5th, little change in the general conditions or atmosphere; silhouette fortunately remains frozen. Winds indicate that great precautions must be taken to buy only what you need and to take extra care of what you own. Extravagant fashion ventures called off, due to impending scarcities. Approaching ceilings warn trouble ahead on replacement. Washable fash- ions expected to continue." Lovable Tubbables This, according to Fashion Vane's forecast, is the year you stay at home; the year you buy Defense Bonds with your vacation money. It's the year that you don't even drive to the country. It's the year you have supper in your own back yard. Or else you bundle up the family (and a lunch) and hop a bus to Rouge Park or Belle Isle, or out to Jefferson Beach for an entire Sunday. Any day now the violets will be up; and before long you'll be feeding the deer, picking berries or swimming. Of course you have a wardrobe of WASAABLE play togs and swim suits. Even our favorite models, starlets and career girls have entire wardrobes of clothes that can be laundered it home. So Fashion Vane, •ith YOU in mind, herewith lands down a few general lints on how to care for those lovable tubbalcaes, so you a1- ways look sore and span. "First Aid" for Washables It's that 'first' to the rescue, that getting-in-there quickly that's the important aid to your clothes. It's the ounce of prevention that lengthens their lives. It's removing a stain the instant you notice it, (or as soon thereafter as possible). Spots arc much easier to remove and the fab- rics are less harmed if you eradicate them before any chemical reaction sets in. Cau- tion should be taken, how- ever, never to use water that is too hot. Tepid-or wrist-tern- eprature is about right. Then you gently douse your gar- ments up and down in the water, (never rub or scrub them harshly). In more severe • cases, a small firm brush ap- plied to the spots of greatest soil will do the trick. Another "important" in your cleansing process, is not to let your clothes soak too long. Many fabrics lose their resiliency and shape if allowed to stand for any great length of time in water. However, some gar- ments actually improve and take on new crispness and luster the oftener they are washed. Other garments actu- ally last longer with frequent tubbings. This is particularly true of girdles with any de- gree of elasticity. Soil and heat deteriorate rubber quick- ly. and work a greater hard- . ship on them than any num- ber of washings. Then, of course, you must allow your girdle ample time to dry. Never try to rush the pro- cess by .hanging it near a radiator, or by ironing it; hand-drying is the best meth- od. Gently enfold your girdle (like your sweater or your wools) between two towels for It r. r. • first absorption. Then allow it to dry naturally, either hooked by its garters to a hanger, or horizontally over a line or bar. The Shape They're In Fashion Vane realizes that clean-cut lines in clothes give an immaculate effect too. Con- sequently, there's much to be said about keeping the shape of your wearables, and retain- ing their size and line. It's a good idea to use sweater forins and glove forms in the drying process. If you do not own them, stuff tissue paper into your garments while they are still wet ,allowing them to air thusly. Smooth Finish Hand-ironing of clothes • is the final touch; and much can be said about this, too. Always be sure your iron is correctly set for the fab- ric, according to the speed in- dicator. If your iron does not have a material or heat gauge. the safest rule is to keep it only fairly hot and press the garment on the wrong side. Glazed chintzes, so important this summer, respond beauti- fully to this treatment. How- ever, when you buy your dress, ask for directions for ironing as well as laundering, and carefully jot them down in a book. Cue From The Movies On the- sets in Hollywood, not only is each actress serubbe d, manicured and shampooed daily, but every garment she wears is subject- ed to purification rites as in- nocent of dirt as an angel's wings. Each star has her own wardrobe mistress who whisks away the first speck of dust the moment it appears. Clothes are sponged and pressed as soon as they are removed. Then they are hung on pad- ded, perfumed hangers. And speaking of hangers, did you know there are certain types and sizes for every garment in your wardrobe, from slacks to fur scarfs? And it's the way you hang your clothes up and the way you put them away that has a lot to do with their wear and beauty. This goes as much for WASHABLES as it does for anything else you own. Trifles Make Perfection All this may sound like much ado about trifles. But it was Michael Angelo who said "Me:.-e trifles make perfection, and perfection is no trifle." So, you can add up your shoe trees, your coat, dress and fur- hangers, your steam iron, your little wire brushes, your glove and sweater frames, and your sum total is a better-look- ing wardrobe, hence a better- looking woman.
