THE CHINA MAIL, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 6, 1960.

WOMANSENSE

Jean Wiseman places her bet on: THE BETTER BEATNIKS OF BRITAIN

I started in Chelsea, went to Cheltenham and before long even

grandmamas in Chichester knew it-the word beatnik,

Now heatnik has moved over from a cult to couture.) It's probably the first time ever that a fashion has 'started The now

at the bottom and ended up by being sold at the top, styles are now being shown in Paris salons-at figures which most beatniks couldn't even count.

Whether or not you admire this type of fashion, it has arrived. It has its place in our present way of living, and while it may cause u stare or two in the West End, it's certainly at home 'for leisure, lounging or active jive sessions.

Slacks and lounging wear for men and women have recently become very

big business, Most women now own several pairs of trousers, and more and more men and women are adapting the habit of changing their formal wear for It's a trend that something "cosy and comfortable" at the end of the day.

will grow when the cold weather comes along.

'COOL CATS'

what

'For 'cool cals' (or whatever the current interpretation may be} better than a red wool facecloth catsuit, with a black wool top and frilly ballerina-type skirt? Or, for the many young girls who like the boyish look, violet wool slacks and a top trimmed with black and white check wool looking rather like a medieval page boy?

There's the Chelsea-type gym slim worn sleeveless for disc sessions or with a really outsize, high-necked sweater by day. Or for the deb. type beatnik, why not a full skirt of red and black check with an all black wool tog, and a reversible hood with fringed stole ends?

Couples who like the world to know that they are that way about each other can have He-and-She matching outsize sweaters in black, ten and white tweed. Intended primarily for motoring, the sweaters boast large kangaroo useful for bikes, scooters, golf, pockets in front, but they would be just as gardening or simply doing nothing.

ANGRY YOUNG MEN

The beatnik look creeps on and up the scale, although not necessarily in price. One sportswear specialist is turning his attention to matched casuals, this season, which makes them rather elegant but not expensive.

For the younger set there are gay checked tweed slacks with long wool sweaters which give the new from-the-hips look, instead of the look that starts at the waist.

And for after six o'clock wear there are tapered slacks, tuilp cut at the angle and highlighted by contrast embroidery.. Topped by a wool shirt in gay print, this outßf could go anywhere.

Men are disappearing from the

scene.

Having made money, our Angry Young

With the advent of winter, it has been said that our bare-foot beatniks are surrendering to convention and fast becoming bootniks. And with all these gorgeous new casuals, it looks as if beatniks will soon all be smartniks,

THESE YOUTHFUL AND GAY CLOTHES HAVE BEEN SKETCHED FROM THE NEW BOUTIQUE WHOSE CLOTHES SELL UNDER "IN FASHION.”

1. An archer suit shows slacks in violet wool with a medieval type top of checked wool.

2. The talk of the town (or tavern) — facecloth slacks with a tweed tabard top in gay checks, trimmed with wool fringing ·

3. Cat suit for cool cats. An all-in-one suit of red wool with black top and frill overskirt.

4. This raglan-sleeved sweater shirt in wool tricot is just right for the active beatnik or the motorist beatnik.

—the trim that had Dior's approval.
