Wonderful fall fashion article from the pages of the September 1960 issue of Mademoiselle Magazine. Advice for the mid-century fashionista? Wear fabrics with texture (silk alpaca, crisp taffeta, fuzzy tweeds), rich colors (plummy purples, magenta, lavender, yellows, greens, red), hemlines an inch and a half past the knees, and get yourself a 2-piece dress (pullover tops over easy skirts).
