So laments Draper Daniels, executive committee chairman of Chicago's Leo Burnett, Inc.-and a lot of others in the $12 billion-a-year U.S. advertising business agree with him. Lately there has been a new flare-up of criticism of the adman and his trade. Semanticist S. I.

Waists are lower, skirts still just below the knee. For both daytime and evening, dresses will have matching jackets. In the evening particularly, women will look long, straight, skinny-and covered up, most notably by the long-sleeved, high-necked Ceil Chapman models. But Estévez' startling gowns are deeply plunged front and back. Sarmi features a daytime "obelisk" silhouette, a flare of pleats from a dropped waistline...
