Define Fall Style
A utum n is always the most exciting
season in the fashion world. The playful
sun and sw im w ear have been put away,
and it’s tim e to get dow n to the real busi­
ness o f what's hot and what's not on the
fashion scene.
This year, the international fashion run­
ways clearly define fall as a season of
sim ple, dram atic looks. W hen it com es to
color, the black and w hite trend begun in the
sum m er is definitely continuing, with grays,
nudes and pale golds extending the neutral
them e, and an occasional splash o f color com ­
ing from deep purple, red and even chartreuse.

will salute the long and lean look, while big
collars, big sleeves, volum inous capes and
sw ing jackets ramp that look up with new
volume.
A ccessories - almost gone for the past few
seasons - are returning with a vengeance!
Bags and shoes get bigger and chunkier, tex-
lured leggings are all the rage, glos es slink
up to the elbows, antique jew elry and
watches are ever-present, and - dare we
say it - fu ro r fur-trim m ed items arecs en
sneaking haek onto fashion's "m ust"
list.
"H air styles and eolor are reflecting
this softer, yet more austere silhouette."
says Clairol C olor and Style Master
grinette Pope. "H air will be worn
longer, styles w ill be unstructured,
natural, very low m aintenance,
whether worn loose or pulled back
softly in a ponytail or scarf.
Haircolor will also be low m ainte­
nance. Enhance your natural color,
add shine and brightness, with one of
ten different brunette shades in the
Beautiful Collection, a semi per­
manent haireolorthat is so gentle
it can be used imm ediately fol­
lowing a relaxer treatment. If you want to
elim inate gray or try a com pletely new shade,
opt for a permanent eolor like rich gold or deep
red from Textures & Tones.
Smudgy eyelids and a bright slash of red lip
color are all you'll need to com plete your new
autumn palate."
