By Stanley Blacker, v Refresh Memory of World of Fashion As the world of fashion looks ahead to a new era It might be fun to refresh our memories of "what has been . . ." How quick we are to accept the new and quickly - forget the past. .' . . Dior's "New Look" . . . Balenciaga's "Relaxed Look" and everybody's "Chemise Look" , . . and others. But as the 1960s begin let's review the old "because soon er or later, we'll see variations on all these themes) for fashions like history repeat themselves. ' i. 1949 a most conservative year. The battle of Dior's al most ankle-length full, full skirt and nlpped-in waistlines had resolved itself into a hesitant acceptance of the fitted suit, the narrow skirt and the somewhat shorter "length." 1950 Out of the billowing ruffles, underskirts, circle skirts, etc., etc., a shape began to emerge slowly. Skirts began to dome or bell, and the midriff came into Its own. The early '50's fashion went into a dither about the bustline! High round bosoms, built-in boning to accent the bosom, and low-cut revealing necklines became the rallying fashions. The later 'SO'i waistlines went up, went down and final ly disappeared Into the "chemise." Hemlines climbed up, up . . . and the form feminine be came a form of conjecture! After a hectic year of mass acceptance, the chemise Just faded away however, fashion continued to stress the relaxed look. And through the past decade, myrids of designers put the American woman through the ups and downs of rising and descending waistlines and hemlines . . . straight skirts, tight skirts and hobble skirts as well-as voluminous skirts, full skirts and barely-full skirts. Have Been Pouffad Fashions have been pduffed and draped, or pared down and "scraped" . . . pleats have been in and they have been out . , , colors have been "high" and they have been in a low key. Throughout it all, three important names emerged triumphant . . . the House of Dior, Balenciaga and the great Channel. Regardless of what happened to the silhouette, fashion's plateau continued high , . "wash and wear" . . . "drip dry" . . . "machine washable" all have become household words to the nation and the fashion world. The most expensive, lavish creations' today are often "washable." Fabrics have never been more wonderful, as the miracles of science and nature blend together in rich weaves, true colors and shape-holding finishes. Extra leisure, more money and so many, many places to see continue to stimulate the- fashion lndustryl As geo graphical barriers diminish, so the "one world" of fashion grows. Out of every corner of the globe come the Inspirations and the makln's of fashion ... out of the many rich heritages of the past and into the vast horizon of the future. Chanel Look Will Include Everything This, spring, fashion contin ues to cheer . Chanel! The Chanel look encompasses ev erything , from sleeveless, round-neck blouses, and pull overs, to cardigan jackets with braid trim, and pleated or slim skirt. This year's newest Chanel styles include reefer coats with "Chanel" binding in con trast colors ... length tunics with contrast bindings, and, simple check suits a la Chanel with fine striped shirt ing blouses underneath them. Berets, a Chanel signature, especially when worn on the back of the head, are being played strongly as Chanel touches this spring. So are pins placed on berets or on cardigan jacket pockets. The Golden 60's look is the new look In mens sports wear. It's primarily a color story v spotlighting gold and olive tones. Look for "Golden Sun, Golden Straw, Golden Brass, Bone, Bone Olive, Dark Olive . New, subtle col ors that are smart and dis tinctively 1980.
