Fall 1961 fashion silhouette review from Ruston Leader
Softly flaring silhouettes and fitted lines shape the Fall 1961 look. Hem lengths and skirts vary from flared to tunic and panelled styles while cape effects, sheer chiffons, and ruc capes influence coats and dresses. Body conscious lines and top stitching define the season’s movement with restrained waistlines and bloused elements.
