IMS How to dress for warmth ° and fashion this winter Americans are finally getting used to the idea that keeping warm during long, cold winter days and nights no longer means turning up the thermostat. What it has come to mean instead is doing what people have done through the centuries: dressing warmly. This winter season, fashion mixes with function to create a range of styles that are both good-looking and practical in­ sulators against the cold. The fabric industry has seen a resurgent demand for wool, the natural fiber that isOworth more/" Slacks, jackets, skirts, coats, scarves--even night- wear-- are being manufactured in wool and wool blends, which are better insulators than their synthetic counterparts of earlier decades. One of the most popular looks of the season is sweaters. Sweaters with suits. Sweaters with jeans. Sweaters in sets. Thick hand-knits, classic crew knits, warm and wooly turtle- necks. The choice is endless, and the look is casually snug. Worsted wools, gabardines, cashmeres, shetlands and lambswool all add up to long- wearing, timeless protection against the cold. Another important fashion look this season comes in the form of leathers and suedes which, although considered a high-fashion look today, were also the basic component of the caveman's wardrobe. The popular preppy look gives fashion license to those who enjoy the "layered" look, whether it be for reasons of style or for reasons of necessity. A cotton turtleneck worn under a challis or flannel shirt, topped with a bright-colored crew neck sweater, is a look as old as the Ivy League--and one that keeps out the cold, too.
