HEAD TO TOE

The looks for Spring

FASHION FOR spring
1983 focuses on the
body beneath the
clothes. Micro-minis
with hems _ creeping
ever upwards feature
long, lean legs. Lacy,
patterned or brightly
colored sheer stockings
complement the skirts
and complete the head-
turning silhouette.
Dresses that drape gently
over the shoulders, scoop at
the neck and dip in the back
to reveal smooth, delicate
skin. Sashed below the waist
in a coordinated fabric, all
eyes drop to the hips.
Skimpy flats flatter the
feet and legs this season.
Follow your whim and
choose from among the
various designs in canvas,
leather and other materials

— all perfect play-clothes
companions.

EVENING HIGHLIGHTS

For evening glamour,
slinky sandals are un-
beatable. Comfort makes
good fashion sense and will
keep you in stride, no matter
what style you choose.

Exercise outfits still make
fashion headlines. Well-
toned thighs and calves look
great in short shorts. Bold
and bright tops are cut to

show a little extra curve such
as a weight-trained forearm
or a tennis elbow.

PARED SUITS

Spring suits consist of
narrow skirts to the knee and
blazers or jackets which
skim the hip. Again, at-
tention is on the leg but
could be drawn towards the
face with a silky scarf,
fanciful necklace, or chunky
earrings.

Accessories rise in im-
portance as the same outfits
get a whole new look with a
twist of a sash or an eye-
catching piece of jewelry.

Things to look for this
season include primitive
jewelry styles of hammered
metal and antique-looking
gems as well as sculptured
geometric pieces.

HEAD TOPPERS

Hats, too, are a fashion
plus. For a_ sophisticated
edge or a fanciful statement,
a hat may add just the right
touch. Wide brimmed,
cowboy-style, bowlers,
berets, pillboxes, netted and
ribboned, there's a_ hat
appropriate for every oc-
casion.

Evening wear begins with
a simple ball gown. Draped
and slinky chiffon wraps the
body closely emphasizing a
shim figure.

Whatever the occasion,
say it with BALLOONS!

Organza gowns flounce
from the waist and are
usually coupled with a tight-
fitting bodice. Shimmery
fabrics in pastel shades
compete with classic black
and knockout brights.

Short hair and bright
make-up complete the
facade. Hair, the crowning
glory, is best kept short and
wispy in the hot months
ahead.

Pink is the newest favored
shade for ‘83 and highlights
every facial feature as well
as nails on fingers and toes.

TONED FOR FASHION

One last note: everything
looks good. on a well-cared-
for body. Supple arms and
legs grace even the sportiest
clothes. The hems are up,
the shapes are pared and the
look is long and lean.

Attention can be drawn
away by outstanding facial
features or fascinating
accessories but, why draw an
audience away from the
mini-skirts, play-clothes,
tapered suits, lusciously
draped gowns and, above
all, a super-looking you!

Children
like salons

In principle, mothers are
responsible for bringing
children to have their hair
cut by the hairstylists.

Most of the time, they
bring their daughters or sons
to their own stylists after
they have discussed what
they would like to have done
dunng a visit to the salon,
when they are alone with
their hairdresser

Often, a shampoo and a
good haircut only are
needed. So, here you are,
ready to take your little one
(to your beauty salon. Hair-
stylists love kids and they
know how to handle them.
