  • Aprašymas: Film production supported by the British occupation forces as part of the Re-Orientation program. A radio reporter for women's issues provokes in his broadcast with the suggestion that women should counter the lack of chic clothing by being energetic and imaginative. He receives numerous letters of protest from female listeners and then announces a report entitled "Elegance is on the Street." First, the reporter inquires about the origin of the fabrics presented at a fashion show and in a fashion boutique. He is told that the fabrics are exported or supplied by customers. Now he starts to approach women directly about their wardrobe. A young woman invites him to her apartment. There he meets her and her friends at their afternoon tea. The women demonstrate to him how they tailor self-designed beach costumes, hats and evening dresses from upholstery fabrics of old sofas, coffee blankets, torn pajamas, umbrellas and other discarded clothing. After asking some of the ladies to dance, he leaves them hats and ties as a thank you. In the following broadcast, he reports on his experiences and urges his listeners to follow the young women's example.
