FASCISM AND FASHIONS
“LET ITALIAN DRESSMAKERS STAY AT HOME.’’ ROME, Aug. 11. The latest ’category to be threatened with Fascist organisation is that of the dressmmkers, in view of ?00 millions of lire spent each year in Paris and Vienna on buying the season’s models. The “Impero” gives paternal advice: “Let Italian dressmakers and tailors, stay at home and enjoy sea bathing on the Adriatic or Tyrrhenian coast. Until they renounce their amusing trips to Paris it will. be impossible to aebievo two tilings': The creation of a fashion in dress _ exquisitely Italian, and the collaboration of the dressmaking and tailoring industries with the general economic battle. Only refuse passports to these high priest, s and priestesses of fashion, and it will soon bo seen what a number of Italian creations can be turned out.”
