A college man surveys
fall ties.
By Ruth Hagedorn
Military and Carneby
these are the two big looks
for fall fashion '66, and
they're affecting every divi
sion Of clothing from sports
wear to evening dress.
The military influence is
shown through brass buttons,
epaulets, high cadet collars,
bacfc-buttoned belts, and the
aouble-breastea style.
The Carneby, or English,
look (the name having come
from ;a famous fashion street
in London) can be seen in the
tailored styles, brimmed
squashy caps, and manly
shirts and ties. Double
breasted jackets and coats
are also a big part of this
look.
Something For Everyone
Eut there is something for
everyone in women's fall fash
ions because designs are not
limited to these two looks.
They- are more diversified
than ever before, according
to Lincoln store buyers, as
are both color and fabric.
The only thing which can
be said of all styles, as one
buyer explained, is that "the
waistline is not natural in
anything."
The pants suit is the big
gest news in the sportswear
line, though it isn't confined
to this grouping. Its long
tailored jacket and slim pants
can be found in nearly any
kind of material corduroy,
wool, tweed, bopsacking, cot
ton, brocade or velvet and
can be worn for any occas
sion. Practical Pants Suits
Many pants suits come with
zn A-shaped skirt for those
women more practical and
less daring. The suit is being
sold in both double-and single
breasted styles and in both
the military and Carneby
looks.
The perennially popular
bermuda shorts and knee
60cks will again be seen,
though pants will have the
right of way this fall. Stove
pipe slacks and hip rider
pants with a Garrison (wide)
belt will replace last season's
bell-bottoms.
The prDy will be back,
along with the turtleneck
sweater. But store buyers say
they will have much more in
terest to them, as all of this
year's sweaters "must have
something on them" whether
it be cabling, ribbing, cross
stitching, stripes or zig-zags.
Varsity Look

Ties (paisley, striped or

are favored accessories to the
sportswear line-up.
Lincoln department store
buyers say that this year's
dresses are more exciting
than they have been for a
long time because of the many
new silhouettes coming into
style.
Tent Look
The tent dress is part of an
entirely new look which is
also found in coats and cock
tail dresses. These tents are
being pitched by designers in
two ways. Some are narrow
at the shoulders and huge at
the hemline. Others are
turned upside down, beginning
slim at the knees and ending
full and gathered at the
shoulders and sleeves.
The tent dress comes in soft
flowing fabrics such as chif
fons. Tne pup tent dress,
which is not as full or ex
treme as its counterpart, is
more casual and comes in
heavier fabric.
The T-shirt dress is exactly
what the name implies, an
elongated version in shift
form of the standard T-shirt.
Usually found in knit, the
dress comes in both round
and V-necks, often with color
ful stripes. It is also designed
with sparkles which necessi

Crystal ball gazing won't be
necessary to search for Fall
1966 fashions! Bright blues,
yellows, pinks, greens,
heather blends will blur re
ception with a flash of Au
tumn brilliance.
The well-dressed college
man can attend the game in
plaid slacks, a cranberry
mock turtleneck sweater and
and an imported poplin bush
coat.
He can sport a pink button
down dress shirt with a pais
ley tie, topped by a black dou
ble breasted blazer and still
be right in style.
Here's how the fashion fore
cast looks for back-to-school
wear for the college custom
er: SLACKS
Bold plaids, checks', and
houndstooths are the newest
word in fashionable slacks.
Mod inspired, but definitely
not mod items, these very
bold, very tweedy, very color
ful "sweater slacks" will of
fer a new and valid fashion
concept for the collegian to
wear with his favorite sweat
ers. Don't confuse these with
their strictly mod, hip hang
ing counterparts. Many fashion-minded
dressers w i 1 1 be
sporting these sweater slacks
at gametime, worn under

five dress.
Body Dress
The body dress will be very
important this fall and wintej,
according to store personnel.
Though giving the appearance
of beine fitted, this dress only
really touches the body at the
bustlme and from there SKims
out. It is most commonly
found in a light weight fabric.
The dress with the long
torso and flippy skirt will be
another imDortant silhouette.
especially for juniors. This
dress is sum until a poini
about nine inches below the
waist where it flares out in
pleats or gores.
Comfort Capitalization
Capitalizing on comfort, the
smock dress with its yoke,
sathered bustline. and fit
through the hips, will con
tinue in popularity, as will the
demi-fit dress with its little
girl look.
Knit is the bieeest news in
dress material. The new ver
sion of this fabric has the
tpxture and look of wool but
with all the advantages of
knit, being versatile ana near
ly wrinkle proof. Colors
range from hering b o n e to
check.
The knit dress can be worn
for nearly any occassion since
its degree of formality is
largely dependent upon its ac
cessories.

wool or corduroy outerwear.
One of the season's sharp
est combinations will team
patterned pants with the new
double breasted blazer.
Manufacturers are tending
to move away from the safe,
solid but dull colors. Still, the
coffee browns and heather
tones will be popular. One
Lincoln salesman predicts
that, "Everything is going to
have brown in it this fall."
Similar predictions have
been made for the past 10
years.
Wide-wale permanent press
corduroy is on its way
out, according to a trade pub
lication. The mills are with
drawing wide and pin wale
permanent press in favor of
the better performing mid
wales. Be on the lookout for
permanent press corduroy
sweater slacks.
All permanent press slacks
will be popular for casual
wear. Their wash and wear
convenience makes them a
solid choice for the college
man on the run.
The men's wear buyer for a
local department store said.
"I can't see any reason for
college students to buy dress
slacks when the permanent
press slacks are available in.

The print suit with its touch
of English is predicted to be
the most popular fall suit. The
cutaway jacket and hip hug
ger skirt come in corduroy
and cotton.
Also big will be the Carneby
influenced suit having a long
fitted jacket with a straight
or A-shaped skirt. This suit
is usually made of heavier
material s u c h as wide-w ale
corduroy, wool, or tweed.
Brass buttoned double
breasted heavy suits,-both
with and without epaulets and
back belts, will be seen in
every store. Camel and bright

the pace for sports shirts this
fall. Shirtmakers also report
that stores want more
stripes, polka dots, near flor
als and textured plaids for
early back-to-school action.
Wool shirts will appear in
plaids, houndstooths and her
ringbones. Permanent press
shirts will account for more
than half of the total shirt
sales.
Fall bookings for dress
shirts and sweaters show that
the orange color range is
moving up very quickly. Ex
pect to find variations of or
ange, (pumpkin, melon, etc.)
come through as ground col
ors and stripes.
Blue is still far ahead in
the color race, with yellow
or maize in second place.
Third is shared by linen and
light green. White shirts are
declining in importance as op
posed to colors and fancies.
Pink will gain fashion favor
as a dress shirt when worn
with burgundy sweaters and
sports jackets.
Paisley ties can be taste
fully teamed with tattersall
and checked dress shirts for
another popular mod-influenced
combination.
Fashion conscious men will
give way to a wider variety
of collar styling. With the
bolder spread collar, look for
the revival of french cuffs.
SWEATERS
Turtle necks, mock turtles
and crews should cut heavi
ly into the ever-popular v
neck business, but the V-neck,
a little heavier this year in a
Shetland wool, will still be the
favorite in Huskerland.
Cardigans will still be
around, but decreasing slight
ly in importance. Flat weaves
will be good.
The color outlook is lively,
with orange heathers, (with
rust or earth tones), canary,
raspberry and pink heather
looking like early college
choices.
Also look for ribbed male
poor boys and paisley V
necks. BELTS AXDTIES
Fall is the season for wid
er belts. Two inch widths will
go volume. Three inch styles
are reserved for mods. The
big leather will be suede in
an assortment of colors.
Reversible smooth leathers,
corduroys, paisleys and
suedes will serve admirable
double duty as inexpensive
additions aimed at wardrobe

versatility.
Paisley will be the big word
in ties and pocket squares, but
watch for tasteful, mod-influenced
polka dots to catch
on quickly as a college fash
ion symbol.
Vibrant regimental stripes,
spaced geometries and club
figures will continue as cam
pus favorites.
Some Lincoln stores prefer
to stock the three inch widths
in ties, but most favor the
two and three quarter inch
of two and five eights inch
widths which are equally ac
ceptable. Pencil thin ties are
strictly for the high school
crowd.
The huge four inch ver
sions of the 20's are coming
back as high fashion on the
east coast. Don't expect to
see too many on campus
though.
SPORTS COATS AND SUITS
An elegant offshoot of the
mod craze, the double breast
ed four button blazers have
just begun to score. They
should be the biggest news
on campus when classes start.
Look for these in hopsacking
and herringbone weaves.
On a somewhat shocking
note, a downtown men's wear
buyer mentioned that the
true traditional blazer is about
done. Accordingly, he says
that it will be phased out by
the new lighter fabrics.
Heather tones, whiskeys,
blues, browns and greens will
still be the most popular fall
colors. College students will
be grabbing plaids, herring
bones and hopsacks off the
racks of their favorite men's
stores as the back-to-school
sales begin.
Next spring, watch for the
arrival of the paisley and pol
ka dot sports jacket to re
place the bright madras col
ors. Suits will be all wool. Hop
sacking and tweedy fabrics
will be good. Watch pin stripes
and chalk stripes for a fall
return.
The mod influence will be
brought out by a two button,
English cut suit with deep
side vents and wider lapels,
and a two or three button,
deep side vent model with a
ticket pocket on the right side
and a suppressed waistline.
For that rainy day apparel,
the poplin all weather coats

will still be campus favorites.
To add texture and color,
be on the lookout for the new
hopsack rainwear fabrics.
