National Premiere
Of Spring Fashions
Set at Texas Tech
Cottons — from sheer gos-
samer-like voiles to heavy coat-
ings — will be featured at a
national premiere of women’s
spring fashions Jan. 27 at Texas
Tech.
Fabrics for the show, which
is sponsored by Tech’s School of
Home Economics, Vogue Pat-
terns and other national manu-
facturers, are being furnished by
textile mills from the east to
west coasts.
“All the fabrics are represen-
tative of the finest in design,
fiber, construction and color,”
said Dr. Gene Shelden, head- of
Tech’s clothing and textiles de-
partment. Most of the fabrics
will be available in the local
market during the early spring.
A collection of colors featur-
ing greens, reds and blues in a
wide range of values and in-
tensities will highlight the fash-
ion show. Vivid prints and
subtile color combinations will
be shown.
Fabrics are being selected for
round-the-clock activities. Mod-
eled will be appropriate apparel
for activities ranging from leis-
urely breakfasts to gardening,
afternoon shopping, meetings,
luncheons and teas.
Attire for evening affairs —
both formal and informal —
will be presented and the show
will be climaxed with garments
for a bridal party.
Fashion highlights of the
show will include suits of cotton
tweeds; matching skirt and
jacket outfits which fit them-
selves into a basic wardrobe;
and a coat with a weatherized
finish to make it wearable rain
or shine.
These new fabrics are being
made into garments by more
than 40 students in Tech’s cloth-
ing and textiles department. Dr.
Shelden is supervising their
work.
