Whatever became offur-trims?
‘Mama coats’ go mod
By HELEN HENNESSY
NEA Women's Editor
NEW YORK - (NEA) -
Mixed media has taken to
sound, the screen, the tube,
and now it travels to the
waves — but not the air
waves in this case. The
fashion waves. Eashion jets
around at such a high fre
quency these days that no
one can ever predict for sure
where it will land. One good,
sound bet is a group of fur
trimmed coats that Henry
Rutman has designed for
Miss Gallery. He tosses
away all the rules and mixes
opossum with cotton canvas
or stenciled rabbit with wool
plush.
Just a decade or so ago
fur-trimmed coats were of
ten dubbed “mama coats’’
because of the audience who
sought them. It wasn’t far
from wrong either to call
them that. Eur-trimmed
coats were definitely on the
matronly side. Eurs them
selves weren’t in the groove
that they are in now. So fur
trims were pretty mundane
and the actual coats didn’t
have much in their favor,
either.
Now that fur and fashion,
rather than fur and security,
are kissing cousins, the con
temporary generation can
finally relate to fur-trimmed
clothes.
It’s comforting to know,
too, that a fur-trimmed coat
doesn’t have to be consid
ered a lifetime purchase or
a costly investment. These

Monogram Crests-A Unique Gift For A Man
Next to you, the most important thing
in your man’s life is his name. Give him
a luxurious Monogram Crest with his
own initials for a promotion, birthday,
anniversary, or graduation.
He'll love personalizing his car, his
wallet, belt, golf bag, luggage, briefcase,

They are self-adhering and affix easily
yet permanently to leather, plastic, vinyl,
wood, metal, or glass.
You’ll probably want one for yourself.

The mix masters. Left, add stenciled rabbit to wool plush, mix in a smooth,
set-in midriff and the result is a well-timed, perfectly executed coat. Combine
onossum trim, right, with cotton canvas, add trapunto detailing and a lean
bodice The outcome is a girl's best friend—a coat for sport, day and evening
wear a hard thing to come by. (Both by Henry Rutman for Miss Gallery.)
fur-trims represent excellent
value and are priced speci-
fically for people who want
more than one coat per sea

A wardrobe of coats and
outerwear is as important to
day as a wardrobe of pants,
shirts, or shrink sweaters.
And speaking of sweaters,
one of the newest knit tricks
is to mix opposite textures
in one sweater—for instance,
combining angora with wool
boucle or mohair with high

met at the home of Mrs. Andrew
Whalen Jr. on the Jackson road

Mrs. Mitchell gives
Garden Club program
Mrs. Duncan Mitchell
presented the program at the
November meeting of the
twist acrylic.
Fur-trimmed coats work
on the same principle. Flat
fabrics take to long-haired
furs and soft, plushy fabrics
seem to do the right things
on short-haired furs.
Rutman purposely seeks
unusual combinations and
the coats in his current col
lection reflect every bit of
his design talent.

Garden Club of Griffin.
Mrs. Mitchell, a member of
the club, has taught herself how
to press flowers. She gave the
members each step of the
process. Mrs. Mitchell brought
flowers from her garden and
showed how to press them using
tissue and heavy book of course
paper.
The storage problem was
solved as she explained how to
avoid the hazard of too much
moisture and light while
gathering enough material to
make designs for pictures. The
last step of Mrs. Mitchell’s de
monstration was the arranging
of the flowers on a board,
glueing them on, framing and
finishing. The finished product
was a picture of miniature
pressed flowers.
The meeting was held at the
home of Mrs. John Goddard on
East College street. Fall
flowers were used throughout
the house.
Mrs. H. W. Barnes and her
daughter, Mrs. J. H. Cheatham
Jr., Mrs. L. W. Blackwelder and
former member, Mrs. B. F.
Harris were welcomed as
guests.
Mrs. Goddard, assisted by
Mrs. D. R. Forrester, served
refreshments to the 16 members
present.
