FUR
The Fashion
WRAP
ur is an emotional experience
experience. It is pleasure in
its Purest Form. And this season,
fur has taken a new twist. Bold
Bright colors. Dyed Mink, Fox,
and Beaver, are making fashion
news all over the nation, in colors
such as Lipstick Red and Moss
Green, Shaffron Yellow, and Deep
Purple. These coats range from
full length to jacket length. And
are one of this season's hots’
items.
Furs should be bought with the
Head not the Heart. Long haired
furs are very fragile, and do
need special care. If you are a
very active person, and are con­
sidering a Fox Coat, or a Lynx or
Raccoon. You may want to con­
sider your purchase carefully.
Quality and Craftsmanship are
the key.
Mink is timeless ... it is not
fragile like Fox and Lynx. It’s
shorter hair enable’s this coat to
be multi-functional.
What ever fur you purchase will
be an exciting addition to your
wardrobe. Remember to consider
your life s ty le and personal
signature when selecting your
coat.
If you are full figured, or short.
It would be wise to consider the
short hair furs. Such as Mink and
Beaver to mention a few. Long
haired furs tend to be to over
powering, for short women. En­
tirely to much fur for full figure
ones. The shorter haired furs
such as Mink, give full figure
women a slimmer Look. Provided
they have a good line and a mid­
length. There are exceptions. So
it is Best to consult with your
local furrier. And wrap up in
something bright and wonderful
this fall.
Evening dresses are body fit­
ting and very sexy, very low-cut in
the front and back. And the length
is optional, from very long to
thigh high. Ruffles are back.
Scarfs are flo w in g o ff the
shoulders and from around the
neck. Backs and Shoulders are
bare.
The Simple Black Dress goes
poof with lots of style and
elegants. Gloves are here to stay
for evening wear. The Long or
Short glove will be quite fashion­
able. Hats have gone BIG. Cock­
tail hats are making a fashion
statement this season, with BIG
W-l-D-E Brim s covered w ith
Rhinstones and satin. Acces­
sories, like ‘Icing on the Cake’ or
‘Jewels in a Crown’ make the fin­
ishing touches, that transforms
any outfit into something drama­
tic. Make your next evening,
a evening to remember. Make
