TV's Harriet Nelson models the Civil Defense uniform

Playing the unaccustomed role of tailor to 1,000,000 women volunteers, the Federal Civil Defense people came up with the sky-blue suit being introduced here by Los Angeles volunteer Harriet Nelson, of TV's Ozzie and Harriet team.

 

To guarantee the uniform's feminine appeal, CD called in the California Fashion Creators Association, fabric company and hat designer Sally Victor. The complete ensemble–the dress uniform (which is shown), a work dress, slacks and coveralls-will cost $75.75.
