FASHION IN THE NEWS
‘Crazy Wheels’ Make Fashion
By HELEN HENNESSY
NEA Women's Editor
NEW YORK — (NEA) —
The bicycle has had a direct
influence on women’s fash
ions since the first American
bike was manufactured in
1877.
At that time it was scan
dalous for women to be any
where but in the home. When
they failed to wear the
amount of clothing deemed
proper-six starched petti
coats and assorted under
pinnings—they were called
“fast.”
But some women broke
convention and tried the new
fangled bicycle which was
such a vogue with the men.
And when they did, they
broke another convention
and wore the costume de
signed by Mrs. Amelia
Bloomer which to this day
bears her name.
Gradually in the 1900 s
women began to show a bit
of independence in what they
wore and where they went.
Fashions were now taking
their cue from Paris and
the women of Paris had dis
covered bike riding which
they did in a somewhat
basic costume—a very wide
pair of knickerbockers,
stockings with high boots or
shoes, a simple shirt with
collar and tie and a soft felt
hat. Gradually, knickerbock
ers were replaced by a di
vided skirt so that women
could ride in comfort as well
as style.
Because of the bicycle
craze it was deemed proper
that women could accompa
ny their menfolk on outings
on Sundays, cycling around
town and out into the coun
try. And the bloomers
knickerbocker-divided skirt
costume grew into the man
nish tailored suit and shirt
waist. Skirts gradually be
came a bit shorter—as high
as four inches from the floor
—and ankles were seen.
From bike riding, women
went on to other sports and

You've come a long way, baby, and so has your bike. But bicycle riding was the
first sport to put women into pants. Divided skirt, circa 1900 (left) may not look
comfortable to us, but in that era it was a big step toward freedom in dress. To
day the bike and its rider are teammates in fashion. Orange knit cycling costume
(right) is matched by wild orange "Crazy Wheels" on the bike itself.
(Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co.)
these activities demanded
new costumes. Hence was
born the sports clothes era
of American fashions.
When the motor car came
into its own as the back
bone of America’s trans
portation, the bicycle be
came the toy of children. But
with the ban on gasoline
during World War 11, the
bike once more became pop
ular for getting around.
Women found slacks a nui
sance on a bike. So a shorter
version for slacks was spe-
suspender straps, bib top,
cut-away armholes, pleated
dropped waists, belted, zippered,
and the pants-jumper.

Collars on boys’ shirts are
longer and more pointed. The
most popular new dress shirt
look: a spread collar in
chambray or broadcloth. The
traditional turtleneck continues
strong, along with the mock
turtle, the shawl collar, and the
turtle set inside a shawl.

Across the nation, retail
jewelry store sales soared to
more than $2 billion last year,
nearly a 40 per cent rise since
1960. California has displaced
New York as a leader in jewelry
store sales and in the number of
stores doing $1 million or more
worth of business in a year.
Texas is running third.

Watches that look like slices
of emeralds; watches that are
part of chunky, metal link
bracelets; watches set in antique
quartz, lapis scarabs or antique
coins. Such are the watchwords
in the winter collection for
Sheffield, the firm that
originally launched the fashion
watch concept. The
emerald-looking timepiece is one
of the firm’s gem watches. The
faces seem to be carved from
solid slices of emeralds,
sapphires or rubies with rims of
patching jewels attached to a
fine mesh band.

DEAR POLLY—I wish someone would tell me how B
S to remove tea and coffee stains from a plastic table- S
I cloth.—MßS. B. J.
DEAR POLLY—This is for Mrs. L. E., who wants to use
some lovely Haviland teacups that are minus handles.
Smooth off the stubs where
the handles were until even
with the side of the cup.
Glue two such cups together
so that the rough places are
together and use this double
cup as a tea bag holder. No
more wet drippy tea bags on
one’s saucer as they all go
into this pretty container.—
S. G.
DEAR POLLY—Mrs. L. E.
could use her teacups that
have lost their handles for serving pudding and gelatin
desserts. When not in use, they would be very decorative in
her china cupboard if turned so one does not see they have
no handles.—BAßßAßA
DEAR POLLY—Do tell Mrs. L. E. that her handleless
tea cups will make real cute planters for small indoor
plants. Turn the broken part so that it does not show.—
THALIA
DEAR POLLY—I iron and sew to make a living and have
discovered some helpers for speed and neatness that may
benefit a bride or anyone interested. The top of an old
desk with a center kneehole was covered with light con
tact paper so none of the wood finish rubbed off on fabric
and inches marked off across the front edge. Then the
desk was covered with transparent gummed tape so ink
does not rub off on fabric being worked on. I use plastic
tomato containers for thread and each holds four or five
spools of various shades of one color. Plastic dividers that
come in boxes of cookies hold buttons and separate the
colors. Little plastic containers hold smaller buttons of
various kinds.—MAß YELLEN
