"Fashion, turn to the left.
Fashion, turn to the right," David
Dowie says.
Although he wes probably refer
ring to politics, the Idea applies
equally well to the tumultuous
world of men's attire. With a broad
range of stylc3 to choose from,
the public's views on just what
exactly is "in" are quite diverse.
"Everything b in. There really
isn't any style that's not in style,"
said Joan McWilliams, of Ben
Simons in downtown Lincoln said.
"The layered look b in, especially
in jackets. Polo shirts are still in,
now with long sleeves. Penny
loafers and topsiders are around
this year, too."
In pants, pleated fronts and
cuffs are coming back, McWilli
ams said.

Fashion moves in waves. Some
of the styles that were big went
the way of dinosaurs, never to be
herrd from again. Others, how
ever, seem to never die and resur
face from time to time. Big Men
on campus today wear the loaf
ers and letter-sweater look of
their '50s predecessors.
"Everything goes in cycles.
Things are like the '50s now," said
Bruce Demc.ro of the Hitching
Post. "People are buying less faddy
clothes and things that go out
quickly: Vans, designer jeans,
oriental and breaker clothes.
They're buying more quality,"
DeMaro said.
High prices cause problems for
consumers.
Struggling college students can
find ways to save. Taking advan
tage of sales and buying coordi
nating separates seem to be com
mon ways to cut costs.
"Buyers should stick with the
bieges, blacks and tans. They can
be coordinated with everything
else," McWilliams said.
"Buy a lot of things you can put
together with others, like the
khakis and greys," DeMaro said.
"It's also good to buy brands like
Generra which are a little bit
cheaper."
The necktie has remained a
fairly stable element of the male
wardrobe. The strip of cloth itself
has changed in width and length,
but still adds the finishing touch
to a suit after centuries of use.
While skinny- and regular-width
ties haven't completely lost their
popularity, semi-narrow ties are
responsible for the most recent
surge in the industry. Semi-narrows
can add maturity to young
men's wardrobes and shave years
from the 40-plus group.
"People who want to pick out
the best ties for them should
bring in their suits, and try to
pick out a few good ones that go
with everything," said Tina Reintz,
of Ties and Accessories at East
Park Plaza.
"The tie is the most important
part of a suit," Reintz said. "The
tie is the centerpiece, the first
thing anyone notices about a
man's suit."
Whether the object is to look
casual, formal, mainstream or ex
traordinary, the chances of fin
ding something to fit the bill are
great. The only thing that seems
to be out of style this year is
being out of style.
