Dec. 21 What the secretary bird and her boss will be wearing in the 1980 At Kensington Close Hotel, London W.8, Swedish designer Carl Christiansson, has built an office of the 80 for a three day exhibition Office 80 which opens tomorrow. The office will be a working office and the staff will be clothed in the fashions that Fashion editor, Ann Beveridge, thinks will be popular in the 1980. Miss Beveridge thinks that the mini will be back by 1980 but girls won't wear a stitch, their dresses will be moulded into shape by being baked in an oven at 190 degrees centigrade. They will have permanently built in shapes so that the 1980 secretary bird will be able to buy their favorite figure shape with their dress, off the peg. Conventional suits for men will have disappeared and pale colours, including white for the jump suit type of replacement will be common. Photo Shows: Modeling the 1980 office clothes today are Gunnar Munthe, managing director of Facit Office Furniture, and his real life secretary Maggie Simmons. Keystone
