like passementerie trim; fringe and
tassles on jackets, coats, shawls and
suede boots; and elaborate embroid-
eries and appliques. Best of all, if an
entire International Ethnic outfit is too

Chic Sportif — When European
designers turn their attention to
outerwear, they give casual sports-
wear their own luxe touches. Duffel
coats and parkas make fashion news
when they're done in quilted satin
and down-filled moire and the toggles
are faux gold. Hoods, especially fur-
trimmed, are where it's at these days;
they are attached to everything from
coats to capes. Drawstrings on parkas

deed, if you're buying only one cock-
tail dress this fall, get it in black.
Short & Curvy — As hemlines on
the runways hit mid-thigh and above,
legs get noticed, especially when
they're in cabled tights, wildly printed
leggings or thigh-high boots.
The deconstructed tailoring of past
seasons allowed clothes to "move."
The designers aren't totally abandon-
ing that concept but they are empha-
sizing a curvier silhouette, especial-
ly the waist and hips, with stiffer
fabrics, stretch fabrics and the rein-
troduction of shoulder pads.
For a slouchier silhoutte, the layered
look is a popular option. Wear a jack-
