Wider Belts, Big Buckles Look Right Wide, wider, widest seem to be the words for men's belts this spring. It might be an elegant leather dress belt, but chances are that: "right belt" means a 1%" or wider brawny style in a sporty leather. Smooth, suede, brushed, grained, harness, waxy, embossed and an­ tiqued finishes appear often. Wide -- and wider -- belts for casual, suburban and sportswear accessorizing of­ fer a wealth of interesting detailing. Patchwork looks, stitching and lacing could be appealing, also cutouts and perforations. Most important appears to be buckle treatment. Variations include studded, engraved, outsize and free- form types. There are also double-fastened or split- strap buckles. Widest of all are spring's gutsiest belts for a man's most rugged clothes. Made chiefly in harness, bridle, grained, split cowhide and antiqued leathers, some of these super-belts go to three inches. They show off or­ namentation ranging from western motifs to porthole perfs or grommeted open­ ings to laced effects and heavy hardware. For business and dress suits, taste around the waist might mean a rich-looking \Vi" to 2" belt with hand­ some buckle and little other decoration. Argyles,Ribs Footnotes to Newer Looks \ For the man who wants to put his best foot forward, over-the-calf and mid-calf hose seem to have a new look. In keeping witn fashion's return to tne classics, to­ day's male has his choice of argyles and plaids, ribs and knits -- in colorful combi­ nations. Trouser hang-ups--cling­ ing. twisting, lint pick-up- appear to be problems of the past with the appear­ ance of anti-static fibers. Marine blue, bright olive, coffee brown and whiskey could be the season's favor­ ite colors. Color Goes Undercover There's awhole new thing --strictly undercover -- go­ ing on in men's fashion. That drab pair of shorts and T-shirt nave been dis­ placed by bright floral prints, wide and colorful Roman stripes, even tie- dyed fabrics. The new boxer short is brief and tapered, fitting well under jeans. There's a total bodysuit with a stretch knit top, body and sock. Patterned tank tops and T-shirts come out In the open when worn with jeans or corduroy slacks. EYEAPPEAL The Increasing success of man-made fiber carpeting is based on eye appeal as well as easy care. tXere's &Cozo <Jl cJKan's <SasferS/tapes^Mp... • at WHITES!
