Direct Centennial Year Fashion| By JO ALDWINCKLE Freedom is the key word to milady's wardrobe for 1967. She can wear her skirts as short as she likes from the knee-cap up and the beltline can ride any- where; a rouleau under the bust, a drawstring at the waist or a real belt slotted around the hips. The shape 'can be straight, flared or closely pleat- ed. Freedom of movement is emphasized in the flowing, often pleated volles and chif- fons, worn unbelted with long, angel-wing sleeves. Canada's -- fashion gathered in Montreal for a pre- view of the national collection of Union Label Fashions found little shockingly new in the de- signs for 1967 but applauded the choice of fabric, good taste and workmanship. The grand award for the best design in the collection was awarded by the critics to Ruth Dukas of Toronto for a dramatic evening ball gown in two weights of wool. The coat was of Italian pink textured wool, the round neckline and panel front heavily beaded in pearls, crystal and colored beads. The dress of fine white wool with underarm folds form- ing a front and back panel was KAINCOAT of the future, designed for the national collection, is in a French fabric with a distinct check. The coat is straight with a writers, | embroidered at the deep arm-| holes and low round neckline, | to match the coat. | Voted top of the "black-tie"' dresses was a_ creation in cerise and white. An unfasten- ed, red lace coat with flared sleeves, all re-embroidered in matching wool was worn over a swinging white chiffon dress with an empire bodice of the red lace and appliqued red flowers. The short skirt reveal- ed full bloomers with band of red lace and white ruffles, jedged in red, knee-length. The award- winning bridal gown was a forecast for fall in an elegant ensemble of wool embroidery on net mounted on satin. Pearls and crystal beads outlined the embroidery on the slim, ankle-length dress and the collariess coat swirled into a cathedral train. The narrow sleeves were edged with white mink. The long look at Canadian fashions included swim suits and ski togs, furred winter coats and spring rain-coats. The trend to year-round fash- ion was never more appar- ent. The trophy winner for beach wear employed elasti-| cized and shirred floral voile' in a one-piece swim suit with and button-on belt.
