WHY, 0H WHY DO THEY WEAR

TM?

DEAR MISS DIX—-Do women dress to please men or other women?

It used to be said that women dressed to attract men.

. How come, then,

that the custom of their wearing slacks and shorts seems to be growing

when I, and every other man I've ever met, simply Women are not built to wear men's clothes. A pair of breaches would turn the Venus de lvlllo into r

the m 7 wrong pLZCGS.

ﬁgure of fun, so I'm wondering whether the smart women who an not beauties, but stick to their ohiffons, sort of stick the good-lockers on to wearing pants in order to even matter up. What do you thérgttizN

ANSWER—I wish I could answer your question, but it's got me guess- ing. I've never been able to determine whether it was lack of vanity or superhuman vanity that made women dike themselves out in men's clothes. The only thing I‘m certain of 1s that no woman who had a mir- ror, and. could see herself as others see her. would ever appear in public in sloppy slacks, to say nothing of shorts that show what a bungler Nature is when it tackles the job of creating feminine legs. It's oiften said that women have no sense of humor. Certainly when they try to make imita- tion men of themselves. tliev prove the assertion.

FEWER SHOE STVLES BETTER VALUE

The American woman will be get- ting more honest-to-gocdneg value for her money in dimes than she ever did before. say= the OPA Con- sumer Division Fine labor and materials will go info trim, con. servatlve shoes rather than into omntmental Bee-gaws. she will dis- cover that fabrics are oontinuln their upswing of popularity probably will be used in all sea.- sons of the year, instead of the warm-weather months alone.

Alhfabric or fatbrlc-and-lealkier

lretidy are important in the shoe line. low-cut sandals and sire/p Jhoes are part of the general trend toward lighter footwear noticed in recent years, and this trend will fit splendidly into the wartime con- servation program.

In general the American woman can look forward to lighter, plalner shoes employing fewer wamful patterns and a narrower range of colors. Like hewhubbard. sbe will do without. rubber sol-es for snot-ls wear. but she still can obtai" heels of reclaimed rubber. She will pro- tect. her shoes from scvffing and damn weather. she will keen them in Qiape with shcetrees. and me will learn the value of frequent trips to the repairman. ‘The more conservative styles will enable her to wear resoled shoes for motifths and years.
