FASHION 19 - Sunday, March 19, 1989 - North Shere News SPRING FASHIONS Skin-baring looks call for bold jeweiry WITH SPRING right around the comer, it’s time to out-dazzle the dreary, cold weather. Skin-baring looks call for bold, knock-out jewels. At the neck, softly-shaped goldtone collars feature brightly polished surfaces, embossed pat- terns or unusual textures. New looks vibrate with colored stones and waves of pave crystal and rhinestones. New designs in affordable fash- ion pearls are perfect for evening dress. Popular new lariat styles feature multistrand tassels which can be tied into a choker or longer necklace. Mix pearls in various sizes and colors for dramatic effect. Com- bine the lariat with a bold choker or the new woven styles featuring tiny black pearls mixed with classic white and rose tones. For an ensemble look, repeat critical elements of your necklace in earrings, bracelets and rings. Or let your imagination soar: Mix and match your jewels to echo your mood. There arc no hard and fast rules beyond making sure that necklace and earrings don’t overwhelm each other — or you. With bare styles such as plung- ing empire gowns or sweet off- the-shoulder knitted tops, the necklace should be the central at- traction of your jewelry ensemble. However, if you're wearing a spectacular high neck velvet dress or bodice of draped chiffon, keep your neckline simple, but choose dazzling dangle earrings that near- ly graze your shoulders. For the wrist, layer slinky rhinestones and colored stone ten- nis bracelets or wear a dazzling scuiptural cuff, set with rows of pave diamonds. Jewelled bracelets perform beautifully, both on the gloveless hand or over long satin evening gloves. Bright jeweled pins in lush bow and floral shapes have star appeal for winter evenings. Why not clasp a flowing velvet cape with a ruby, diamond and pearl-encrusied Maltese cross? Add even more richness to a brocaded evening jacket with two matching collar pins of pave or faceted colored stones. Men, too, can benefit from fashion tips for the winter. Fash- ion jewelry wiil transform his everyday business suit into elegant evening attire. The right touches will add elegance to masculinity. Start with a classic dark suit or polished pinstripe. Select a strong tie — solid, stripe or an unusual pattern — in bold colors. For evening, essential tie ac- cessories include tie clips, tacs or collar bars. Popular styles include gold filled and goldtone, many with accents or colored stones, rhinestones or onyx. For a distinctive touch, add a lapel pin (use a tie tac if you don’t have one). And his wrist should be no less interesting than hers. Pass beyond the routine, every- day watch by adding the pizzazz of a subtle link or herringbone chain. Balance that wrist with a sleek ID bracelet oa the other. Cufflinks lend the wrist a debo- nair continental flourish but, if all your shirts are strictly buttoned up, use today’s new designer but- ton covers and — voila — your cuff speaks with a French accent. Similar covers hiding the shirt front’s bald buttons also permit the dull everyday shirt to shine as brightly as a tux shirt. For button covers, select classic masculine coin designs, or go all- out with pave rhinestones set in round or heart shapes.
