THE FASHIONABLE way to keep dry on a wet spring day ts with this hooded rain
wrap, pants and boots. This outfit among others was shown at In the Mood presented

at Pelican Bay Sunday.

By TERRY MERCER

There was no doubt about
it, everyone was “in the
mood” for a Mother's Day
brunch and fashion show at
the Pelican Bay Restaurant
at the Granville Island Hotel
on Sunday. The show, In
The Mood, was a slick and
professional production put
on by Capilano College's
Retail Merchandising
students. It featured some of
Vancouver's most promising
young designers. The
designs were worn by the
students themselves and one
had to look twice (and often
three times) to determine
that these weren't
professional models.

The show portrayed the
designers at their best
featuring their individual
sense of style. There was an
abundance of natural fabrics
in soft muted tones and
beiges — like Lilhan Chang's
creauions that capture the
innocence of natural colored
raw silks. Her classic designs
were outstanding. Donna
Stark displayed a dazzling
collecuon of hgh fashion
clothing in soft beiges and
browns for the professional
woman who's looking for
something a litte bit dif-
ferent.

Lucinda Jones also proved
that silk ts definitely the “in”
fabric this year. Her
dramatic designs, in mostly
cremes, browns and blues,
are meant for the individual
and came across with flair.
The pretty feminine dress
belonged to Sue Jacobsen, a
designer who enjoys
designing dresses with added
features like removable
collars. The audience
showed their obvious ap-

One of the highlights of
the show was Cheryl Red-
mond’s designs. Cheryl, of
C.A. Redmond Knitwear
Designs demonstrated her
ability to create outstanding
pieces by combining fabnc

with knitting to make
beautiful sweaters with
interesting textures and

patterns. Her use of natural
fibres and dyes create an
unusual array of subtle
colors. Several people had to
take a break from their
brunch when her designs
arnved on the scene.

Esme, a recent graduate

from Capilano College's
Retail Merchandising
program, showed her

collecuon of high fashion
rain wear. Her designs in-
cluded raincoats, jackets
and pants. They were in-
novauve and had a definite
flavor. Jan Mindhn and Lynn
Warnok, also Capilano

for fashion

College graduates, found a
need for Canadian designs
for the larger woman in
mind. Their designs in black
and white in sizes 16 and up
were both sophisticated and
refreshing.

Valarie Fawks'designs
were mostly classic in wools
and silks. She displayed “a
unique personal touch by
hand painting bright, vivid
colored designs on_ her
garments.” Janet Lee from
“Chinta Manis”, meaning
“Love of the good things in
Life’’ in Malaysian,
presented a _ beautiful
collection of Italian linens,
in red, white, black and
brown. Her designer jackets,
skirts and

pants were
stunning. For the ad-
venturesome there was
Khyati and Brind. These
designers sported an
unusual, playful and in-

teresting line of clothing all
in natural fabrics.
