Fur Caps Gain Popularity in Winter Fashion

Winter fashion embraces Persian lamb fur caps as testers sold quickly after initial traffic stoppers. Producers plan to double output next winter while fur men see caps as a promising market to use leftover scraps.

Fresh Spring Neckwear Brings Brighter Livelier Styles

New neckwear for spring and summer features brighter ground colors with strong hues. Silvery whites, grays, tans, and blues add elegance to Easter outfits and summer wardrobes. Woven silks show ranging patterns from abstract designs to travel and hobby motifs, with fine imported cottons embracing English prints and bold Continental designs on pale grounds and soil-resistant finishes. Ivy fans may prefer deeper foulard tones and lightweight wool challs, along with rep stripes in dusty and traditional club patterns.

Narrow Look in Shoes Complements Spring Clothing Trends

Men's fashion this spring favors a narrow silhouette with natural lines and tapered trousers. Footwear follows the look with lightweight, flexibly constructed shoes, softer leathers, and a mix of black and brown tones, including blue leathers, two and three eyelet lace patterns, moccasin and plain toes, and the growing popularity of dressy slip-ons with buckles and squared toes.

Getting in the Swim Swimwear Styles in Wool Briefs

Swimwear ranges from short all wool briefs to knee to mid-calf wool skin-diver pants. Colors favor white blue and black.
