Five 'Big-Name' Fashions Appear During One Season Five big -name performers head the cast in the men's ' style story for Fall 1960 and, . says the American Institute of men's and Boy's Wear, it's the first time that as many as , five basic styles have appear ed in any single season, all at .one, time. New to the cast and begin ning to perform like a season ed trouper is the Trans-American model - a crisp, handsome compromise between the American Continental, with its smart, sophisticated round ed coat fronts, and the con servative American Natural. The Trans-American's lines are straight, the fronts slight 1 ly rounded, the back is plain ', with no vent, the pockets ' double piped. Two and three ' button models are available. ' Trimmer than ever, the ' Continental flatters the Amer ican man with its slimming lines - handsomely traced waist, narrow lapels, tapered sleeves. Slim, too, are the trouser lines which carry a , single pleat, angled pockets and no cuffs. 'Ambassador' Popular Continuing in high favor, the California-inspired Ameri can Ambassador presents its silhouette of long, tapered coat lines, its roomy athletic look. The nation's all-lime favor ite, the front-running Ameri can Natural is showing some signs of Continental influ ence - but it's still the con servatively smart suit it al ways was. American Ivy returns to its classic best this season with such novelties of the past as flapped hip pockets and buck led back straps on trousers go ing into oblivion. Smart shoppers will also note the growing trend to ward wider use of vests, both matching and in contrasting colors. All in all, this five-star sea son presents more action and greater variety than any au tumn within recent memory. This goes for fibers and fab rics, colors and patterns, too. Suitings have never before been so handsomely colored and a 1 1 r a c tively designed. Olive 'greens are strong this Fall, solid or compounded In heathery mixes of blues, rus sets, yellows, grape and black. Bolder patterns come to the fore in both glen plaids and checks, not just in suits but in sports jacket and slacks com binations also. These accents along with certain styling de tails may denote the begin ning of more of an influence of things British. This trend may gather momentum. Continental Impact The American Continental style is having wider impact on topcoats this Fall. One re sult is new, shorter lengths, for greater comfort in walk ing and motoring. Another new detail shows up in full peaked and semi-peaked la pels - in both single-breasted and double-breasted models. A casual note finds expres sion in the full sweep of the split raglan coat with angle flap pockets. Conservatives will go for American Natural boxcoats with notched lapels and flapped pockets.

In all ways the direction is toward sub- lety, restraint and good looks. For example, because of the heavy emphasis on pat terning in new fall suits, the colors and designs in new shirts tend toward the con servative. Stripes, . while heavily represented, are more widely spaced and in lighter colorings. Colors, gen erally, feature "a hint of tint" -in gold, maize, ivory, olive, taupe and a sprinkling of pink. Collars, too, pick up the ac cent of elegance in such new shorter button-d owns and non-flare button-downs. The tab collar is extremely im portant and is featured this season in angled or cutaway tabs, as well as blunt or rounded ends. In cut-and-sewn sports shirts, traditional are treat ed to a variety of new color ings, prints and fancy touches such as fly fronts, engi neered panels, embroidered accents-in good taste. , Prints big and small are important, including batik and heraldics. Other new woven range from district ideas to madras-type plaids, as well as some new striped ideas. Fabrics indicate much more interest in textures, This is reflected in burlap weave hopsacks, herringbone and hopsack weaves, oxfords in twill, and subtle-slubbed effects in cotton-plus blends. Textures are also an impor tant factor in new knit shirts. There are many di mensional treatments, some bulky-look treatments, cro chet-looking stitching, etc. Classic ideas have been given a new look via new sweater colors. Patterns are as varied as they are handsome, and include yoke . stripes and panel stripes. Headlining new trends in sports and leisure wear for Fall 1960, casual jackets team up with matching trou sers and vests, too, to make time-off a "dress right" affair. Checks, plaids, hounds- tooth and a variety of other patterns traditional with leisurewear jackets are all pointed up in these new three - piece ensembles that make their bow. In combination with slacks or matching trousers, the sea son's sport jackets focus on two standout models those with Continental features and others with natural shoulder and other familiar treatments. Slacks are marked by fewer tricky tailoring de tails this Fall, but the consen sus is they are the smarter for it. In fact, slacks are re flecting the same tasteful treatment you find in suit trousers right down to the subtler patterns and com pound colors in business en sembles. Slim-Legged Look Making a big style dent in slacks is the Continental in fluence, which introduces dropped Western pockets and tunnel elastic self-supporting waistband features. All are note-worthy for their slim lcggcd look. In addition to solids, look for them in glen plaids, checks, and madras fabric designs. The ail-American male look comes into its own in the season's new outerwear that fairly shouts an invita tion to get out and enjoy the tangy Fall air. The variety is fabulous. New longer lengths vie with three-quarter lengths in outerwear that features single-breasted and double- breasted models. In addition, hip-lengths and waist-1 o n g models abound. As for fabrics, they range all the way from madras- plaid wools to cotton blends and corduroys. Watch for oiinh nnlar onrmonl lnvurv ic fur-type pile shawl collars, I pile and fur linings or linings in brilliant hucd downy wool, bulk knit treatments, so called umbrella fronts and back yokes, floating shoulder details that make for easy arm motion, slant flap pock ets and front fastenings in a superb variety. Outerwear colors are for crisp and bright Fall days. too olives and golds, russets and wines among them. In sweaters there is no fa foritc like the old bulky-knit favorite. Bulky knits are top liners this season, along with traditional cardigans and pull-over with crew necks. V necks cross-over boat necks, turtle necks and many more. Cardigans, by the way, ap pear in six-button front mod els, with shawl collars. Bold Shirt Colors There's a riot in sports shirts for Fall I960 a happy riot to be sure. Bold colors, off-beat colors and mixtures of the two. Bold pattern treatments, too. Among the popular weaves for the season are oxfords, herringbone and hopsacks, featured in solids and prints. Some have stitching that re sembles sweater knits. Other features to check 'n the sports shirt range include collared knit models, engi neered "scarf" prints molded into shirt fronts, and novel embroidered motifs accenting; collars, cuffs and pockets. there is Ivy in topcoats, too, with the classic natural shoulder lines, Tab collar broadcloths and button - down oxfords domi nate the dress shirt scene for Fall 1960. Solid whites re main the leaders in popu larity, but there is competi tion from solid blues and striped types. Ties, like shirts, reflect the new suit style influences with their neat, tasteful patterns, their slimming lines. Fou lards and reps in stripes or new motifs are available in rich autumn shades and color combinations that dazzle the eye. Fabric Scarves Have Dramatic Possibilities Collarless necklines, preva lent this fall, gives scarves a chance to play a big role. Fur, fake fur and fabric all are uti lized for scarves with drama tic possibilities. Fabric scarves, varied in width and length, can be tied many different ways-on the shoulder, or in a gypsy knot, for example. Leopard and other spotted effects, paisleys, abstract art forms are scarf prints. MADRAS LOOK - Plaids aplenty make the fashion news in sport shirts for fall. This button-down model has the rich Madras look in a blend of Eastman Kodel poly ester and cotton.
