POST-WAR FASHIONS PRE-VIEWED IN LONDON.—These three non-utility dinner gowns are affording London women a "glimpse into the future"—into those couponless days when such models will be possible for the smart woman's wardrobe. The gown on the left is classically draped in ocean turquoise colour; the one in the middle has gone back to grandmother's day with heavy padding introduced around the hipline to create a crinoline effect. The third is in black, and features a novel skirt draping which loops around the hem to display a peep of sandal-shod foot.
