Dear Fashion Girl,

Dear Fashion Girl,

My favorite color is green I was wondering what shade of green is in for fall and winter? Also what type of pattern is in?(stripes,plaid,fake fur,etc.)?

Thanx Greenie

Dear Greenie,

Fall/Winter '98 sees the continual popularity of yellow-greens and the emergence of rich, earthy greens. Because there is an emphasis on contrast this season, celery and sage greens are being shown with deep asian reds, maroons, and autumn tones.

This Fall the key word in terms of fabrics is luxury. Whether cashmere, leather or fur, all-out luxury rules. The baggy look is out, and shape is in. There will be no more hiding under those loose layers this season. Fitted leather jackets, pin striped suits, tweed skirts, and anything velvet, is hot. Fur trim is in and it's showing up on everything; necklines, wristbands, hems, hats, just about anywhere you can imagine.

Have fun shopping for all those green treasures!
