Perhaps that was In the mind of designer Tralna-JVorell when he made the dress for Miss Kilgallen. It is a new addition to ber all silk Spring into Summer wardrobe. The bodice of black silk crepe is lavishly embroidered with tiny CHtsar bradn and sequins. They sparkle like the black patent leather belt that circles her waist. The full skirt of the dress is made of multi-colored frothy black silk net and is short enough to show her black satin pumps.

All-Silk Wardrobe IN DISCUSSING ber all silk wardrobe, Miss Kilgallen said "it makes sense for a city dweller like myself." Then she added, "1 spend MISS kILUAI.I.KN wears bailor bodice most of my time indoors in the Winter snd in Spring or Sum mer we usually go to Europe. If not we stay in New York during the week. Therefore I need soft silk clothes and dresses rather than suits. And I need lots of cocktail and evening clothes. "In silk they all combine with furs, which I sIko love or with silk coats." The clothes that the star is selecting of silk are, she says, adaptable, packable and right for her schedule.

Getting back to the breakfast program with Dick, the two often have their children, Dicki and Jill, on with them. Jill is a little "fa.ihion-plate" like her mother. When I was talking to Miss Kilgallen at a party in Gracie Mansion, home of Mayor and Mrs. Vincent Jmpelliterl in New York City. I mentioned that the Beacon Journal had used a picture of Jill in her Mr.

John-designed hat. Right away her mother replied that she has received several clippings of that picture from fans here in Akron. JILL'S MOTHER also has a fondness for hats and likes picture style, with just the right quirk to make them chic, too. As for costume colors, her preference is stark black snd white to compliment her very white skin and black hair snd bring out the contrast cf her wid grey-blue eyes. When she is not wearing either I I I V-4 i -fhu black or white Miss Kilgallen likes pale blue, bright red or pink.

A coat that is one of her favorites this season is of lustrous whito silk satin with wide puffy sleeves and great flare. This, she thinks, Is striking when worn with a slim black dress. It Is by designer Phillip llulllar. She also has a black silk taffeta strapless formal gown with full skirt. Designer Ceil Chspman completed this floor length gown with a deep shirred flounce.

Black And hite A DRESSMAKER type suit of black and white pin checked silk taffeta by Anthony Blotta again makes use of Miss Kilgallen's favorite color combination. The jacket has a black silk velvet collar and cuffs and fastens to the neck or can be worn open to show off jewelry. This Spring- Miss Kilgallen also wears a "petticoated" black and white striped silk taffeta dress designed by Emily Wilkens. The fitted bodice has a Peter Pan collar edged in velvet to match the narrow belt. She wears a small pink rose tucked under the collar.
