Thaarup Makes A Come-Back NOW IT'S WHITE IN THE HOME

Four years ago, Danish hat-designer Aage Thaarup was riding the crest of the wave, employing 50 workers in the Mayfair establishment where he designed hats for the Queen, the Queen Mother, Princess Margaret, Lady Chur- chill and many more of the top socialite ranks. Then suddenly, everything crashed us he went bankrupt. Down but not out he moved to Chelsea, starting again in a small way. And now he's back with his first collection in three years, at prices ranging from £3 to £35-for styles with mink trimmings. More, he's also designed a selection of hals for the Queen's Canadian tour; and it was n proud and happy man who could claim: "I'm on top of the world again,”

WHITE is just about the oldest cliche in the fashion business, and now

it looks as though it will be the same in the home, for this year interior decorators are becoming white-conscious too.

They have discovered that white-painted furniture and white rugs can give even the dullest room, a crisp, fresh look.

The latest trick, used by a new decorator, Elspeth Marchetti, is to veil the living-room curtains in cheap white net to give them a cool, summery look. To save setting up new curtain tracks, the net is sewn on to the top of the existing curtains, and is just as effective over velvet or chintz,

The same designer recently created an all-white bathroom which has to be seen to be believed. Walla of white ginss mosale surround a munken white bath. The new-siyle curved busin in set inside a surround of white laminated, plastic, edged with gili. and gilt instead of chrome is used for the taps and the shower alment.

The carret is of whlie and silver grey tweed mixture-an ideal colour for the bathroom, since spilled talcum powder does 101 show. And the only touch of colour comes from the Bristol blue gloss Jury which house soap and bath cubes,
