PARIS (A)—. Loose belts, slot-
ted around the hips and eye-
brow-deep cloche hats gave the
Jacques Griffe show this morn-
ing a strong flavor of the 1920s
or “boy friend” era.
Griffe went further than any
other designer with this theme.
But he was up to the minute
with bosom - emphasizing drap-
ery, the barest necklines possi-
ble. and myriad versions of the
little black dress, said to be the
favorite of Marilyn Monroe.
Nearly all the dressmakers
presented their collections this
season with murmurings about
freedom of movement and a
natural line. Griffe was no ex-
ception.
One of the brightest ideas of
his show was the live-shaped
skirt for cocktail time. Charm
jewelry turned out to be highly
polished chunks of grapevine,
set with diamonds or something
equally shiny.
Ostrich feather cioches had
gentle undulating brims, and
there were big floppy satin
berets, squashed felt cloches and
bejeweled lace cloches.

To anyone who feels that the
old enemy, time, is against any
constructive course of study
once one is past the ’teens,
many-talented Miss Holland of-
fers her own experience as en-
couragement.
She despondently told a friend
it was not worth studying an-
thropology at night schools be-
cause:
“Hl be 40 before I’ve finished
the course.” (A slight exaggera-
tion in age for dramatic empha-
sis.) The friend replied:
“You’re going to be 40 any-
way, so why not have the knowl-
edge, too?".
This outlook so appealed to
Miss Holland that she immedi-

stage again. A former singer
and actress, Miss Holland grate-
fully retired two years ago to
the comparative calm of office
routine, and has no desire to
return. ’ *
Miss Holland’s complicated
story of conflicting ambitions
began way back when she was
a schoolgirl in Chicago. She had
two interests then, singing and
anthropology. As her family
were short of money and col-
lege was out of the question,
the former looked like a more
profitable line for a 17-year-old.
She sang with local bands for
several years, then came to
New York and in a few years
packed in singing, dramatic and
dancing lessons, three Broad-
way shows and a stint on the
Kate Smith show.
. “Then I decided that either I
quit or end my days in a sani-
tarium, so I quit,” she says.
“You have to be a bit crazy, con-
ceited and commercial to be an
actress.”
