BEVERLY HILLS, Calif.—
(NEA)—When a big com
pany introduces a new prod
uct, it’s handy to have a
couple of Vanderbilt girls
around to help with the
launch.
Allied Chemical Corpora
tion’s textile division has a
new fabric called “Touch.”
Rather than just give their
salesmen a few swatches
and a pep talk, they jiave set
out on a year-long program
to give Touch a proper push.
Among other things,
they’ve hired Wendy and
Heidi Vanderbilt, the daugh
ters of Alfred Gwynne Van
derbilt.
Wendy (24) and Heidi (20)
dropped into Beverly Hills
when Allied got together
with a society group called
The Colleagues and held a
fashion show. A pride of de
signers had whipped up a
collection—all using Touch,
naturally—and the members
of The Colleagues modeled
the clothes at a posh cocktail
reception and fashion show.
Mrs. Clyde Newhouse—
television fans will remem-
ber her as Maggi McNellis,
of the old Leave It to the
Girls show—was the com
mentator. And she also had
a television show based on
the program, for later view
ing here and elsewhere.
For Wendy and Heidi, this
was the second stop in a deal
that calls for them to show
up at 10 cities, for a three
day stand in each, to give
the Touch debut a touch of
society. Their first was
Akron—Allied has a tire
company, too, and they
thought it would be politic to
kick it off there—and later
they will call on Chicago and
other cities.
“We may do Southamp
ton,” Wendy said, “in the
season.”
Wendy is working at art
these days. In New York,
she has an apartment-studio
atop a brownstone, which
she shares with two cats and
a dog. She specializes in ab
stract paintings, she says.
Heidi used to act, but she
has switched her interest
now to other things. She is
studying anthropology and
ethology—the science of ani
mal behavior—at Columbia.
Her future plans are
vague, but there is one
dream.
“I’d like,” she says,
“someday to have my own
zoo.”
They all went out to dinner
at one of Beverly Hills’ best
restaurants, and the conver
sation was a melange of
topics.
They talked about travel—
London is their favorite city.
They talked about clothes
—naturally, they like every
thing made with Touch these
days.
They talked about movies
and animals and even cu
cumbers and one of the
guests took a leftover lamb
chop home in a doggy bag.
And she didn’t even have a
dog, proving something
about society folk.
Mostly, though, they
earned their keep as ambas
sadresses for Touch. They
were enthusiastic about the
fabric, repeating details
about its feel (in light
weights, it feels like silk, in
heavier weights, it feels like
suede) and its ability to take
colors, the ease with which
it can be worked and the
fact that it is 100 per cent
synthetic.
