Newest in fashion for fall
the Diplomat Lookl This takes
in all well-cut suits, coats,
jackets, and skirts in "men's
wear" falbrics. Colors are dis
creet, mostly grey and greige . ..
with bright accessories.
For those cold days, "eye-spy"
is the rage. The "muffled-up
look" is IN-hoods, scarves,
mouth pieces that leave,only the
eyes in view. This is your chance
to show the world "what beauti
ful eyes you have."
Shirt Year
Newest in the line of sweaters
are knitted plaids, strips, and
pebble textures - usually worn
over shirts. This is a "shirt year,"
especially for pin-stripes. And
monograms-in a new place, on
the cuffs! Big, round cuff links

Evening styles favor B I G

To detail the Diplomat Look

elaborate accessories. It includes
the "smoking jacket" for skirts
and dresses, as well as for slacks.

his fal the costume is re
placing the one-piece look as the
leading exponent of high fashion.
Several Reasons
There are several reasons for
this according to Helen Joyce,
fashion director for the National
Association of Blouse Manufac
turers. An ensemble made up of
several handsome parts may pack
greater impact than . one piece
alone.
Further individuality is also
achieved by matching component
parts of a wardrobe. Coordinated
separates provide manj changes
of style and emphasis.
Split Level Blouse
The "split-level" blouse is one
of the newest fads. This is a very
short overblouse with a free
hanging lining that hugs the body
and tucks into the skirt.
Large collars and Gibson girl
sleeves are also in fashion.
Good colors for fall are the
subtle greens, such as mint, moss,
olive and loden. All shades of
brown, rnst, orange, and natural
tones are fashionable.
Fabrics for fall are unusually p
f
soft. The new textures are
brought about by newly developed
special processes.
Current Look
The current high fashion look s
is a dawn to dusk look that starts t<
in the morning with a day cos- tl
tume, goes on to cocktails, and P
participates in formal evenings.
The separates look is definitely v
the most important for fall t
fashion. s

be When you know where you want
is to go, it's easier to get there!
The words "Well-it'll be a
(et good experience!" are often heard
echoing a misfortune. Forget
ice, them. Such things that require
those words are usually short cuts
al- to obscurity-a form of the Big
art Excuse.
ich The Big Excuse
ray The Big Excuse is rationaliza
m- tion for not facing life squarely.
Joining every club and organiza
al- tion on campus may be fine for
at- social reputation, but is it living
ing up to your responsibilities to
ns yourself as a person? However,
aps it is an.experience.
Although "experience" is a
rather treacherous form of ex
cuse, it is no reason to avoid new
up, situations. There's always an
Wy element of suspense in a "blind
We date," whether he's a real creep
gur or a Paul Newman!
get The problem arises when the
ys phrase "It's an experience!" be
ing comes an excuse instead of a
ind reason. Is studying on Saturday
ant night really an attempt to learn,
ar- a necessity due to exams, or only
of an excuse to avoid developing
your own social life?
Know Yourself
Some experiences that end un
happily are born in self-delusion;
delusion quickly becomes disillu
iion, with the blame falling every
where but where it belongs. Too
many such "experiences" can
sour your outlook on life itself!
Knowing yourself and living by
your own v'alues can mean every
thing - the differe.nce between
success and failure! Everyone
isn't destined to fame and for
tune. If you do not want to "set
the world on fire," don't let the
amibitions of others make you
lose sight of your own.

Fall Brit
Interestij
By ANN SHEEK
Fashion Writer
Classic design is the new word
in this season's coat fashions.
New design details, new fabric
treatments and combinations add
a particular vitality to the classic
coat for young adults.
The wrap-'around is back in all
its figure-flattering glory. Di
mensional interest shows up Im
portantly in shaggy coats and
look almost like fur. The revers
ible hits are scoring an all-time
high in popularity and fur collars
appear, often lending their look
of luxury to all-weather coats.
As for colors, they range from
the unimpeachable camel to wild
e ce
As mentioned above, there are
times when you should meet new
situations. Sometimes it is neces
sary to create experiences for
yourself. When you find yourself
only a spectator, leaving the res
ponsibilities of making something
happen to others, reach out and
begin something yourself.
A Bad Habit
Boredom is a bad habit. It's
also your own fault. There are
many things to do, many people
you've never met. Get out of the
bad habit-find that "spice of
life"-variety! There is a time
for facing new experiences! And
it can be fun! You can make new
friends that way.
Caution may keep you out of
trouble, but it may also keep you
out of life! It can create a bar
rier between you and the rest of
the world.
Perhaps Shakespeare had the
right idea when he fashioned for
Polonius the advice to Laertes:
"This above all, to thine own self
be true. Then thou cannot be
false to any man." That's a good
rule for today. With this in mind,
you can judge the past, assess the
present, and plan the future.

Popular Boy Coat
Increasing in popularity on
campuses over the states is the
well-known "boy coat." This
features flap pockets which are
large and stitched, three-quarter
cuffs with a bottom trim, and
the back features a half-belt and
the traditional open-vent. The
favorite colors in this coat are
camel, navy, and red.
"Wild and Woolly" are the
words for the new shaggy Orlon
pile coat. A convertible turtle
neck collar cuddles the chin or
lies flat. Large buttons add a
minimum of decoration.
The reversible coat is ideal for
the girl who is budget-conscious.
Here is a coat that can be a
fashionable wool coat on one side
and a water repellent raincoat on
the other side. Sleeves are
tapered and the pockets have
welt emphasis.
The wrap-around coat has a
dramatic yet casual styling and
will rate tops in any girl's ward
robe. It has large notched lapels,
welt pockets and modified turn
back cuffs. Popular colors are
camel, navy, grey, and red.
Fur and More Fur
The new spark in casual coats
is fur and lots of it! Colorful
block plaids are used with flat
tering shawl collars of different
furs. For the short sport coat,
the double-breasted styling com
pletes the design balance.
Pert, pretty, and practical is
the deeply textured tweed, set for
innumerable functions from
career to informal social activ
ities. White is flecked through
the brightly colored woolens for
dimensional depth and tonal soft
ness. Styling features include a
multiple button closing, conver
tible collar, tapered sleeves and
side pleats.
Yes, there is a new mood in
women's coats this fall, a mood
of excitement brought about by
exotic design details added to the
purity of classic lines. And, to
please everyone, the mark of
femininity everywhere.
