. , - . U1I STRES Continued from Page 7 For women, femininity in the workplace puts menswear to shame. Classic silk separates or distinctly fresh and crisp shirt/ skirt combos can give confidence to any nervous interviewee. Since it is springtime, designers insist on bringing floral motifs into many fabrics. Dark and light prints, small pansies and large orchids abound. But just be careful to avoid looking as if you have just stepped out of the Mathei Botanical Gardens. Springtime also brings out nauti- cal themes, for both men and woman. While the anchors are hoisted, here's a further word of cau- tion - don't go overboard; you might be mistaken for a Maybelline ad. evening wear. Once the little black Some men and women are born cocktail dress, always the little black with an innate talent for mixing and - cocktail dress. That's why it's been matching patterns and colors, stripes, solids and checks. When done prop- erly, it can look intricate and stylish. When done poorly, it can look as if you were a contestant on the now defunct "Let's Make a Deal" and lost. Black, needless to say, is still the preeminent color, especially among around so long. Local stores are also reporting large sales of navy blues, khakis, cremes, pastels, and other neutral colors as well as burnished, earthy shades. Brights, on. the other hand, are reportedly not selling as well on See STRESS, Page 9 0- 0 0 . 011, 0 oofv 67 selee What COVER PHOTO: 1) Kathleen is wearing: Max Studio Sport Product blue cotton jumpsuit, $86.00; matching cotton cropped jacket, $54.00; Williwear by Willi- Smith red cotton/lycra tank top, $40.00; Esprit beige leather belt, $32.00 they're w 2) Emily is wearing: Kikit red cotton cropped pullover, $58.00; Urban Outfitters black & white striped cropped cotton pants, $40.00; Accessorie Club black elastic cinch belt, $13.50; East 'O Java sterling silver earings, $29.00 All clothing available at Bivouac gearing TABLE OF CON- i A .HOE RU 20% - 60% OFF SELECTED WOMEN'S DRESS, CASUALS and ATHLETICS 1208 S.

The first clothes store that attracted my attention first was Mal- lards. The display at the entrance had a table full of solid colored V-neck sweaters. "Let's go in here," I said. "I don't know," Jeff said. "This seems too preppy to me. Preppy's going out." "Really?" "Yeah. Let's go to The Gap." Jeff said The Gap was a fountain of fashion and that we might be able to find something for me there. "Jeans," he said at we entered the store. "You need jeans." "I haven't worn jeans since the eighth grade." "We need to talk to someone then." We talked to Matt. He was a salesperson and a junior at Eastern Michigan, sporting a white-knit V- neck sweater with short sleeves and blue trim. We asked him what was fashionable, and if he could help me pick out something. "Pigment dye," Matt said. He showed us a stained, faded brown shirt. "It's a dye that doesn't saturate the material. Gives it the 'worn look."' The shirt looked like it was falling apart. It was $30. "Are they a big seller?" I asked. "Yeah." Matt directed us to the blue jeans section. The jeans, which had faint traces of blue, were dominantly col- ored by what appeared to be bleach. They were barely holding on to the hangers. "Ice-washed jeans are really big," Matt said. "I dunno," I said, trying to imag- ine myself in a pair. I could not. "What else is big for spring? He reported that short mini-shirts and rayon are popular. Neither one sounded good to me. "Tell me," I said to Matt. "What do you think of my outfit?" I was wearing a solid white V-neck sweater, loafers, and navy slacks. I was hoping that maybe he'd like it, and I wouldn't have to buy anything. He sized me up from head to toe. "You bought that sweater years ago, didn't you?" "Uh-huh." "You don't look like you're with the times." I decided not to buy anything just then. I wanted a second opinion. So Jeff and I left. The trip was not a to- tal loss, because we learned a lot about the latest trends. And not a moment after we left, we spotted two young girls wearing these jeans; one of them was even wearing an ice- washed blue jean jacket. "A lot of people wear them," 13 year-old Julie Clay of Milan said. She wore a hot pink shirt and Reeboks in the same color. I was busy making mental notes to myself. Ice-washed was definitely "in." Jeff was busy talking to Julie's friend from Ann Arbor, Sabrina Young, who was also 13. "What about Swatches?" he asked her. "Do you guys have Swatches?" "Uh-huh," Sabrina said with vigor. Jeff noticed that their wrists were void of the plastic bands. "Why aren't you wearing them now?" he asked Sabrina. "Oh, I don't like wearing watches," she said. We were confused. We went on to other stores to try to get a better handle on why people spend so much money on clothes that are falling See SHEA, Page 25 KIBBUTZ ULPAN Israel's most popular He- brew study program. for two, three or six months.
