Spring 2000 will signal the beginning of exciting new changes in womenswear. For fashion trends, it's all in the d e ta ils .... embroidery and beaded details, sheer fabrics and colour, ruffles on blouses and skirts, funnel necks, and scalloped or square necklines in sweaters.

M anufacturers at every level are proving it does not need to be a chore to buy modem clothing by creating their own versions of the original hip. trim silhouette. M anufacturers are slimming down and softening the silhouette, fine-tuning the model to fit a much broader audience. The new slimmer, trimmer m odem silhouette is a pure throwback to the 6 0 's, and is symptomatic o f bigger changes in lifestyle and attitude. The future holds a peaceful coexistence between tailored clothing and sports wear. Tone on tone continues to be big hit with shirts and ties in the workplace. On a casual note, convertablejfii(MB||i,hich turn into shorts) and the i over a tee shirt set the mood for ilaxation.
