They are all over the place, and some of the prettiest ones are in favorite cotton constructions. The new pants are pretty pants. They are feminine and ladylike. They are young and fresh. They are everything and anything. They are meant to wear everywhere. The secret is a whole new proportion. The pants themselves are fuller with the fullness starting from the hips for a softer, more feminine look. But, more than that, it is what they are worn with that is important. The new idea is pants -plus. It is pants plus tunic...pants plus jumper dress...pants plus long, belted jackets...pants plus vest.. -pants plus sheer blouse. These longer, shaped and flared tops transform the pants ensemble into a totally new look. Pants plus bareness add coolness for warm summer days.
