FASHION’S BREEZE
HOW THE STRAWS BLOW. Alix uses black bone buttons on an ankle-length dinner dress in black broadcloth and black silk jersey. Jewels and jersey will be fashion news this winter. With a pink jersey draped frock wear Schiaparelli’s whirligig black and white earrings, or her sunny gold lizard clip, outlined in black and white pearls. For years designers have proposed ankle-length dinner dresses, and the black-outs overseas have caused them to be accepted. Molyneux’s version of this fashion is in dark brown chiffon with a brown wool top with little tailored buttons. This year is a year for ears, and they should be as beautifully adorned as your wrists and fingers. A glamorous pair of gilt silver earrings are in the form of cornucopias hanging from old coins.
