Called Blossom by En- chante, it debuts this month in stores across the country. Like television, movies affect fashion trends, particularly when it comes to young people's movies and logo T-shirts. Pres- ident of the New York City- based children's-wear fashion service, David Wolfe Kids, Mr. Wolfe is excited about Steven Spielberg's Jurassic Park as the "movie merchandising tie-in of the decade — better than Bat- man," he declared. "It will be the most important motif crossing over into back-to-school fashions for toddlers to pre-teens." Bonnie Horowitz-Fuller, of YM, predicts that the upcoming Three Musketeers movie will spark interest in velvet and ruf- fled shirts for school. More than ever in the spot- light, what with a newly re- leased movie and two cutting-edge music videos, is singer/actor Janet Jackson. MTV's Jimmy Hanrahan cred- its Jackson with single-handed- ly reviving the whole American-Indian influence in jewelry, due to the bone and bead chokers she wore in her videos. Even super-hip guys are taking to the collar, although theirs are thinner and simpler than the girls. "When the lead singer of a hard-core rap group like Naughty By Nature is wearing a bone choker, you can bet well be seeing more of this style state- ment on young men very soon," Hanrahan said. "Rap music is still influencing fashion," said Teen Magazine's fashion director Maureen Ryan- Blochi. This time around, instead of all the baggy blindingly bright- colored layers, it's brought about a change in proportion — un- dersized mixed with oversized. "The look is to wear something tight, balanced by something baggy, like a bodysuit worn with baggy jeans or an oversized work-wear jacket worn with slim pants or leggings," said Stephanie Fassler, VP of mer- chandising for Merry-Go-Round stores. To finish the outfit, you need "status" footwear. And the clunkier, the better — from cor- rogated rubber-soled boots to clogs and platfol ms. Urban Out- fitters touts Na Na's "pole climbers" (insulated work boots) as the hottest thing next to Doc Martens. YM's Fuller thinks Adidas and Puma are on the way back as major fashion footwear. What will be next? Trend fore- caster David Wolfe reports that in '94 manufacturers are already looking to outfit youngsters in hard-core industrial work-wear such as fire fighter jackets made of protective fabrics like rubber, as well as blanket wool. "Kids are going to look like they're get- ting ready to go dig through a coal mine," said Wolfe. Suddenly, simple school uni- forms — the anti-choice alter- native to all of this — are taking on a whole new light.
