College Crowd | Pretty Plaid

|Approves | Grown-up Look Campus Fashions

Shown at Ayres’

The classic campus fashions are running up against some sturdy competition . this fall from more © |grown-up styles. | Sweaters and skirts and casual clothes are still on hand, but there's ka greater emphasis on “date” frocks and dancing dresses. Root of this sudden interest, it is suspected, is the hoped-for end of the wartime dearth of men in the halls of learning. Ayres’ Shows : At Ayres the other day when two college fashion shows were run off, it was the romancing-and-dancing and the week-end-in-town styles|: that brought forth most of the} yearning gasps from college-age|: audiences. ~ One trend stressed in the hows|: was a general softening of the|: silhouette by way of rounded shoulders, deeper armholes, easing of sleeve uppers, tightening of belt lines and adding of skirt fullness. This, “along with importanée of neutral tones and black, accounted |: for a brand new look in college wear. : ]
