Linen is in the fashion
spotlight again this spring.
But heed these words of
advice if you want to keep
your linen fashions crisp
and cool.

Linen is washable, but it
can shrink if it has not
been preshrunk by the
manufacturer. As with all
textile apparel, check the
label before laundering.

To wash linens in a
washing machine, use
warm water and a short,
gentle cycle. Dry garments
on a clothing rack or
hanger. If the linen is
heavy, you can put the
garment in the dryer for
about 10 minutes to
remove excess moisture.

CLE

If you take your linen ta
the drycleaner it can be
cleaned and pressed for a
professional look which is
difficult, if not impossible,
to achieve with home
Jaundering. Drycleaning
also prevents dis-
proportionate shrinkage of
linen garments. Be sure to
have all the pieces of your
linen outfits drycleaned at
the same time to avoid
color differences.

Don't try to remove stains
yoursell. Blot up any spill
and have the garment
drycleaned as soon as
possible to avoid a
permanent stain.

"0s styling makes a comeback

AFTER FOUR veuars of overstated
fashions, shoppers are rejecting
them in favor of  pared-down
styles and longer hemlines.

Today their preference is simple
clothing, basic and undecorated —
fashions not seen since the °70s

Designers are featuring the same
understated look for accessories,
no more apparent than in their
signature eyewear collections,

One trend that clearly
dominates the eyewear accessory
market is the small, round metal
shape made popular by recording
stars like the Beatles.

This nostalgic throwback to the
°70s is seen on Calvin Klein run-
way models wearing his vintage
eyewear,

Our Angela Rucaro line of
separates has arrived and you
will positively love her spring
and summer collection in
oatmeal. We have added an ex-
citing line, “COMPONIX” from
Los Angeles. It’s both fun and
elegant.

Like all of Klein’s work, his
new collection of eyewear is a
study in understatement.

Menswear designer Alexander
Julian recently designed an
eyewear collection under his Col-
ours by Alexander Julian logo
featuring the popular round
shapes in muted colors for reading
and sunglasses,

Glasses are the latest word in
secing and being seen.

Although round and oval
eyewear reach back to the '70s,
fashion-forward shoppers know

the look is youthful and modern;
it is an image most people want
now.

In clothing, as in eyewear, col-
ors return to fundamentals.

Gun-metal grey, pearl, navy
and taupe are valued for their
versatility in simple, refined ward-
robes.

Denim, a staple of relaxed
clothing for generations, is
reworked in uncomplicated lines
and is back, big-time, on the
fashion scene.
