Show Brother is Safe Now, as Boy Influence Leaves Its Mark on Sister's Fashions "No fair," brother used to moan, but to no avail. High school sister simply wouldn't stay out of his closet. And why not? An active life that zips from class to sports to wrestling wrest-ling with homework (often on the floor) calls for clothes with easy wearing virtues, comfortable tailoring tail-oring and trim, sensible lines. But this year the boy is safe. Sister Sis-ter needn't swipe his things in secret, for she's got her own, now adapted with the casual simplicity and neatness that she loves into a new teen-age fashion. There's the "boy look" in the convoy coat, the "boy coat" and the station-wagon coat. And the influence has further spread to deep pleats, back yokes, lowered belt lines, weskits, button-down collars and the evening shirt bib. She's even wearing collar pins and jeweled studs as decoration. And one thing that brother must admit she looks just swell in them. |
