Mrs. Barreau remarked that
American designers are coming
into their own. There is almost
as much traffic coming to
America to get styles as there
is going to Paris. She also said
that the French come here to
get baby clothes and active

sports attire was because the
women of this country actually
participate in sports, while the
French women are mostly spec
