Young Fashion Designer Produces Teen-Age Wardrobe
Helen Rose, who began her fash-ion-creating career at the age of 15, has spent the last five years designing screen wardrobes for M.G.M. stars.
Her most recent assignment was the Technicolour picture “Luxury Liner” whose modern setting afforded her the opportunity to present ’teen-age fashion as she sees it with a complete wardrobe for Jane Powell. One of Jane’s prettiest outfits was a ballerina-length formal which combined white marquisette with red and white checked gingham. The dress had a round neckline trimmed with a miniature of the same bow and flower applique of gingham encircling her full skirt. Giving the dress a double duty value is the bell-boy type gingham jacket which buttons all the way up the front with tiny white buttons to match the white marquisette collar and short cuffed sleeves.
