New Summer Textiles Introduce Chameleon Cloth and Paper Dresses
Elsie Branden previews evolving fabrics for summer including chameleon cloth that changes color with chemicals, a colorfast washable garment, and nonreversible results. Paper dresses promise four to five wearings at 1.25 dollars, plus fire resistant rayon reinforced shifts in two designs. A new iron-on seam tape offers repeated bonding through cleaning. Two cautions accompany these innovations.

A Garden City Telegram article explains two kinds of rayon, old and new high-modulus varieties. It notes the old type is weak when wet and hard to press back to shape, while new rayons stay stronger when wet and resist distortion. It advises learning trade names and consulting county home economics agents.
