It is a season of soft femininity, rich col­ors and luxurious fabrics. Some of the looks coming up include sculptured shapes of the 50's and 60's, softer rounded shoulders, and higher waistlines. Any length of skirt is "in". Coats will be seen in all styles such as straight, trapese or swing and capes. Pants are the new casual look. If you are a sportswear fan, then you’ll want to get turtlenecks, blazers and pleated pants. Colors are bright this fall. Black is the color to be seen in for any occ-assion. Other popular colors are purple, green and red. Accessories are the new focus of an outfit. Antique jewelry can be revived and added to any outfit to update it for the fall '88 look. Everyone can adapt their wardrobe for the fall with a few inexpensive additions. Scarves can be brought out of the closets. Big bountiful scarves with country prints in wool blends can be woven over the shoulder or held in place with an antique pin. Scarves go with any outfit. As clothing becomes more streamlined and classic, accessories gain importance. Thereby causing an increased fascination with pins, brooches and buttons. You can wear one big brooch on a classic black dress or fasten several on a lapel. Or you may want to turn up a white shirt collar and layer the neck with beads for a rich effect. This fall, give yourself a treat and buy one new item to update your wardrobe:. Happy shopping!! If you would like more information or a display on Fall '88 fahsions contact me at 653-4848.
