Eugeneans: Never fear, GQ is here Brawny! Hot Looks For Fight ing The Cold War. Exclusive! Three Major Writers View Today's World—Rod McKuen, Erma Bombeck, Timothy Leary. Your Winter Wardrobe “Must Haves. ” Headlines such as these might be splashed across the cover of the latest Gentlemen's Quarterly magazine Although I generally look in my closet for something to wear, thousands of men nationwide look in GQ—the Madison Aven ue fashion guide that not only tells you what to wear but also tells you where to buy it. Sprinkled among the more than 200 pages of advertising from fashion and grooming magnates are the likes of Calvin Klein, Evan-Picone, Geoffrey Beene and L.L. Bean, GQ's watchwords for the fashion season Feeling a twinge of social re sponsibility, the GQ editors even have provided their readers with room for biting fa shion commentary. For example, an insightful GQ personality feature stirred one reader to voice this opinion: “As an avid fan of John Travolta, it was enjoyable coming home from work and finding him on the cover of the September GQ After reading the interview with Travolta, Settling in for the Long Run’, it seemed quite evident that he’s 'living the GQ way.’ In addition, the magazine's informative articles and select choice of fashions have helped me coordinate my wardrobe without having to overspend. I’m so thankful for subscribing to GQ Sheldon Lebowitz, Randallstown, Md." However, GO’S letters editor is careful to present, when pos sible, a broad selection of opin ion Another reader responds: "I've been reading GQ for about two years and always look for ward to the excellent articles and superb photos, often even envying the models on its cover. But September's cover really has me puzzled. Certainly a fa shion magazine for the '80s could do better than showing John Travolta wearing a T-shirt. I suppose a publication with GQ’s record of quality is entitled to make an error once in a while, but let’s hope that it doesn’t happen again Andrew J.P. Stevens III, Oshkosh, Wise ” GQ readers can step out of the fashion scene temporarily with Pulse/Who and what's happening. The price-cons cious section explores food, exercise, travel—the essentials Imagine, if you will, what a GQ editor might advise the fashion conscious in Eugene to do With winter fast approaching it's time to agonize over the fashionable winter wardrobe. As wet' and ‘cold’ are expected to be all the rage this winter, the fashion watchwords are 'warm' and dry.’ Yes, gone are the body-hugging labels of the warmer months, soon to be re placed with the usefulness of weatherization. As Old Man Winter exhales his first chilly breath, the pant lines will plunge to seasonal lows, the shoes will reach new heights and the Nike running shorts will go into hibernation The rule-of-mitt for winter wear is to dress longer as the days grow shorter, except, of course, for evening wear for which the opposite is true. When mixing and matching winter separates one should ask: are the textures similar, are the colors congruent and will I contract exposure while wear ing it? Yet outfitting for the cold and wet can never be complete without the proper accessories. Caps and earmuffs will be con sidered nothing less than dap per. For those precipitous days, there is nothing so smart as an open umbrella to greet the cold in a fashionable shade.
