Albert J. Feldman, president of A, Hollander 3:: Sons, believes we can reverse the so-called one-fur trend and capture R. new extensive and profitable market by making fur articles and fur garments to please the teenagers and debut- entel of today, He said there are several millions of teen-age fe- males today who ten years ago were children and adolescents. They were not than interested in furs nor did they see or hear of many furs which at that time were already extinct in a. sense or had been discarded by fashion. The fr- malee in the foregoing and higher aged brackets are now young ladies ranging in age from is to 20 years and above. Adding to this group the many more millions of females who in very recent years have arrived at the age levels of 16 to 22, we find that we possess n priceless reservoir of consumers. The potential in the main is rela- tively untapped.

Tom Leour, Jr., who has been promoting blonde furs in Buffalo. N.Y., states that Buffalo women like blonde furs-but at the some tzme they are afraid of them. A- fraid of the high styling and that they may soil, It will be remember- ed that Fromm Bros. are promot- ing blonde silver fox furs and as we remarked before. then were produced in the 1040's at the ranch of the late J. Pope Clark and also at Fred Taylor's, Brendalbane, nnd we have also heard of other good mutations resulting from a cross between a platinum fox and a red femele. so if foxes come back that might be a good thing to try out.

In one of the latest issues of Women's Wear Daily are two new designs for fox and the following: Fox fashions stand out among holl- dsy furs. re-ordering consistently with buyers throughout the coun- try, Norwegian blue and black- dyed fox continues as top favorites. Natural white for is also reported to have gained in strength during December. Generally cited as lead- ing style in all types is the small capelet shown in fox and fabrics combinations. Then there is the three-tiered capelet with velvet backing peeping through in match- ed or contrast as current favorite in black-dyed fox. It often is pur- chase with matching muff . ...Ap- paren ly they haven't got along as far as featuring silvers in New York but they are in Europe as recent solo: show silvers selling
