§ 81. Mr. Hollisasked the President of the Board of Trade whether he is aware that some nylon fabrics, when photographed, are transparent; and whether he can give an assurance that all purchasers of nylon dresses will be adequately informed, before purchase, whether their dresses will prove transparent or not.
§ Mr. BelcherI am aware that some fine nylon fabrics are sheer or transparent and are sought after on that account. Others are entirely opaque. The same can be said of silk, rayon, or cotton fabrics. In general, I think women may be trusted to satisfy themselves when purchasing a dress that the material is of the type they desire, particularly with a relatively new fabric such as nylon.
