Notable are dresses in floral prints that fea-
ture a softened V-neckline, puff sleeves.
princess bodice and Basque waistline.
Bridesmaids in bright colors are popular
with chartreuse, violet, melon, coral and man-
go being favorites.
Flower girls should always relate to the
bride, while the maids and matrons should
complement — not necessarily compete with
or match the bride.

THE GROOM AND HIS MEN

A husband-to-be used to just sit on the side-
lines and let his fiancee and her mother tell
him what to wear. No more, says Lord West's
Harvey Weinstein.
There are a few rules that apply. A late
morning or early afternoon wedding calls for
daytime formalwear — an updated cutaway
and striped trousers for the groom and
stroller-length coats with striped trousers for
his men.
If it's an ultraformal wedding, then white
tie and tails becomes the proper choice.
For late afternoon or early evening cere-
monies, tuxedos in an unlimited selection of
styles are correct.

SPRING AND SUMMER TRENDS

New at Pierre Cardin, a licensee of Lord
West, are the "Max" tuxedos. One version of
the Max is a double-breasted tailcoat that is
worn by the groom; the other version features
a four-button, one-to-button-style tuxedo jack-
et with side vents.
Black is still the number one selling color
among tuxedos, according to Mr. Weinstein,
but surprisingly, ivory dinner jackets are out-
selling white jackets for the first time in a
decade.
Another surprise in the tuxedo scene has
been the popularity of the Western look.
From Connecticut to Arizona, black-tie ap-
parel influenced by the spirit of the West is
riding high at weddings. Tuxedos styled with
scalloped yokes and pockets are accessorized
with bolos and crossover stain ties.

collars without wings are also making a ma-
jor fashion statement.
Cummerbunds and ties in colorful ab-
stracts, subtle antique prints and humorous
conversational designs are giving the groom
and his groomsmen lots of choices.
