There is a lot happening in the great con
temporary sportswear world, all of it with a
snappy young flavor in bright and vibrant
colors. The 'college girl, the young careerist
and - the sophisticated suburbanite will find
a wealth of fashion variety in updated shirts
—very much the.accesso_ry top of the year—
in new-looking separate skirts to wear them
with, in casual knitS in sweater dresses; low
down or belted sweaters, or sweater shirts.
What's more, the divided skirt and p2rits
dress, as well as the pants suit, are now
firmly established in the basic wardrobe
picture.
Today's new .sportswear looks demand
the versatility, variety and advantages of
today's updated, man-made fibers, particu
iarly "Orlon" acrylic for knits, with comfort,
shape retention, texture and• good perform
ance built- in, and "Dacron" polyester in an
endless variety' of washable, wrinkle-resist
ing fabrics for the rejuvenated shirts and
separates. "Ban-Lon" garments, in either
textralized Du Pont nylon or "Dacron," also
run the gamut in sportswear fashion, from
kicky mini-dresses ,to tights and tops, to
way-out, wild, at-home clothes.
A quick rundown of some of the big
news for spring in casual sportswear looks:
Sweater Dresses
Kicky little knit shifts of "Orlon" acrylic,
with the look of the sweater that grew into a
dress. Turtlenecks, ribbed knits, patterned
knits such as diamonds or checkerboards,
contrast stripes, T-shirt tops.
The big news in shirts is the fitted-shirt
look, or the body shirt. Often with longer
pointed collar, wide french cuffs, or side
closed with fencer collar, or with bib front
ruff detail—sometimes cut on the• bias. Al
ways in crepe of "Dacron" polyester, or
Shirts Bock With 'Body' Look
Shirts are making a comeback on
the campus fashion scene, but shirts
with a difference from the old familiar
blousey tuck-ins of the past. It's' the
new body shirt that is making the
news, because it has the right look to
wear with today's new snappy skirts,
pants, and culottes.
The body shirt describes a whole
new dimension in fit, for it is shaped
to the figure, cut high in the armholes,
close to the body, with a long, lean,
fitted look. It may "be cut on the Bias,
have • hardware closures, stand-up or
the gamut from slub textures and
fine crepes with body, and in some

and cotton therefore, always washable,
drip-dryable, non-wrinkling. Great with the
new shirt looks, with pants and jumpers.
Taking a cue from the casual comfort of
the more-important-than-ever woven body
shirt .the knit shirt. Always with shirt c
lar and sleeves, and button front. Best when
knit of washable, shape-retaining "Orlon,"
or in jersey of "Orion."
A new variety in skirt looks includes
kilts, dirndls. pleated wrap skirts, flippy
all-around pleated skirts, pants skirts, (with
the pants entirely disguised), panel front
skirts, skirts with side cluster pleats. And the
straight little skirt teamed with its own
matching sweater.
The new sweater look is the long, long
pullover of "Orlon" acrylic or Wintuk yarns
of `•Orlon" sometimes belted, sometimes
not. To be worn with pants or skirts. Great
in cable stitches, rib knits, crochet looks, geo
metric patterned knits, new textured yarns
such as boucles.
The pants dress and pants skirt, some
with separate matching tops or tunic jump
ers. Very important for fashions with an eye
to action.
Either quite short or very long, stopping
at the waist or extending to almost mini-coat
length. The shape should be spare and slim,
skimming the body, or small-shouldered.
with a flare at the hem.
Pants must be sleek and straight-legged,
or taper in slightly at the knee, to flare out
again. They should sit on the hips, or bclow
the waistline, and should be belted.
Smocking, peasant, embroidery, colorful
braid trims—all lending a folk costume look
to young little dresses.

seys of "Orlon" acrylic and wool, and
long pointed collars, and interesting
pocket detail. Sleeves are long and
narrow, either banded or french-cuffed.
These are some of the hallmarks of
today's new shirt look.
Fabrics, too, play an important
role in the updated shirt not just
one fabric type, but many. They run

sleeves and wide white collar. Here it's striped with white in a double-knit of "Da
