	Description:	NYLON FAIR Swimsuit and night-gown fashions in new nylon fabrics M/S and C/U of a dark-haired girl modeling a swimsuit in a fashion show at the National Nylon Fair in London. The costume has a black halter-neck bodice and short, puffed bloomers in stripes of red, blue, yellow and green. Commentator tells us "it is claimed these bloomers will never lose their shape" as the girl runs her hands over them in C/U. M/S of two rows of sedately dressed ladies and gentlemen watching the show, they must be wholesale buyers. M/S as another model sashays along the platform wearing "the latest design in housecoats"(robe, dressing gown); in a pink and white nylon taffeta with pink flounces at the collar, cuffs and hem. She unbuttons it to reveal a pink night-gown with three rows of spaghetti straps on each shoulder. C/U of a young woman in the audience watching intently; M/S of two women discussing the design. A blonde model is seen wearing a gorgeous yellow swimsuit with a cream and yellow beach coat trimmed with cream pom-poms; this outfit is designed by Teddy Tinling. Rather lengthy C/U of an elderly gentleman watching from the audience - he looks slightly uncomfortable! The blonde takes off the beach coat so we can see the swimsuit properly; tilt up from her white sandals to her head, showing her impossibly long legs! We next see a rather sweet outfit by Rigby and Peller; a halter-neck swim-dress in a green and white print with Vandyke scallops at the neckline and hem. The brunette model takes off the skirt to show the swimsuit is cut quite short "to give the long leg look"; the model shows how the skirt can then be worn over the shoulders like a cape to protect the shoulders from the sun.
