Layered-Look Reflects Young, Spirited Fashion Philosophy THERE'S A BIG McHenry Dollar Days! The voices of the young are being heard resoundingly throughout the world. A new consciousness of their heri tages, a rediscovery of values, their realistic but idealistic philosophies of life are being reflected in the clothes they wear. It's a new independence. It's liberation from confor mity. It's confident and free- spirited. Layered dressing appears to be the positive statement. It all starts out with a ward robe of underachievers-- the body-suits, the leotards and the tights. Worn in clarion colors or brilliant patterns, they are seen with every type of dressing. The layers of separates that are poured on from there on in are as individual, unique and personal as a signature. Unchallenged winner in fashion acceptance is the blazer. It is practically a way- of-life. It turns out in wools, flannels, gabardines, velvets, corduroys, taffetas and sat ins. It tops every fashion throughout the day, it goes everywhere after dark. The skirt presents new shapes--bias cuts, pleuts, wrapped, the kilt, culottes. Slashed sides or front or back slashes give them swinging, easy movement. The pant goes up and down --every length. Shortpants, mid-thigh pants, above-the- knee pants, below-the-knee pants, knickers, britches and full length pants are basics. The shirt, classic and tai lored, is seen in a variety of colorful patterns and solids. It is simple in cotton or syn thetics, it is simply elegant. The soft blouse shows off its feminine wiles with soft puffed sleeves or full roman tic sleeves, French cuffs and surplice wraps. It is a foil for clingy jersey, satin and silk fabrics. The coat enters with new importance. Three-quarter or seven-eighth lengths are new, and seem to be the proper proportion when combined with skirts and pants. The cape, the cape coat, the duffle reefer and the wrap coat are seen in midi lengths. Their fabrics include bright blanket plaid wools, tweeds, garbardines, canvases and suede cloth. The chubby coat is kicky and spirited. Most often found in fake furs, it also appears in inexpensive but real furs. Dresses move into the new softness, too. They are found in a myriad of styles and sil houettes. The surplice top, the piiffed sleeve are seen often. The smock pops over everything. The small waist, bias cuts and pleats are emphasized. Knit pants, knit dresses, knit skirts, knit coats and capes appear over and over in alive, alert fashion in dependence. Fall dressing is getting caught up in a whirlpool of new at-home fashions, loungewear and soft and dreamy sleepwear. It incor porates mystery, elegance and turns the clock back to an era when romanticism reigned. Shortpants and warmpants get an elusive wrap with skirted rompers. Little jumps get covered with long, wispy skirts that can be sashed, slashed high in front or out lined with ruffles. The two-piece dressing story goes on for elegant hostess looks. Long skirted halter top outfits, slinky soft wrap dresses with cut-away shoulders and button front styles take on shortpants or long pants for fancy mix and matching. After the guests leave -- fashions unwind. Robes ap pear, long and short, in com fortably wanning fleece, quilt ed cotton, wool, velvet and terry. Patterns appear in spired with Madras, bold plaids, patchworks and all- over flowers. Zipped, buttoned or wrap ped to the side --the lines work with puffed and off- shoulder sleeves, sashed and belted waists to enhance hap py relaxing hours. To retire for the evening is to awaken a world of bil lowy flounces in heavenly sleepwear. Dreams that walk--gowns go long, get tucked, pleated and gathered for yards of free-flowing illusion-like chif fon and satins. Rope-sashed under a fitted bodice with spaghetti straps, lean gowns drape in very soft body lines. The Grecian in fluence is evident in draped shoulder and scoop neck styles that are cinched with braided cords at the waist for truly romantic toga looks. Separates-to-bed make sleeptime fun time. Short pants and long pants with matching skinny ribs and tunic tops shoW up in solids and patterns that set up many a sweet dream. Colors go bright, to light up »after-dark hours. Blues, reds, bright greens, blue greens, sky blue and peach help il luminate at-home wear. SHOW THE COLORS Stars and stripes strike up a fabric note in a variety of parade-stopping red, white and blue combos. Subtle Shaping Figures In Fall Underfashions The inner woman has a lot of new freedom going for her this season. It's found in under-fashion shaping -- un- constructed, free, easy and natural. However, the "unrestrict ed" mood also reflects subtle, but important shape-up. Falls' dresses, accentuating the waist, require new curve control. Skirts and pants have fashion demands of their own. Bras are soft and fluid. Many times stretch straps and backs take the place of hooks and hardware. Often, the seemless bra is designed in one-size-fits-all proportions. The body-fit bra is espe cially important under clingy jersey and knit dresses, and under sporty skinny rib sweater tops. Figure-slimming girdles and panty girdles are in keep ing with the close-to-the-body trend via lightweight control panels. Bras and girdles are alive with color. Slit front dress revealsmatch- ing checked warm pants, in wool knit. Costume by Feder Fashions from Holly Park of Ireland.
