...show of the National Chamber of Italian Fashion, Scott had sent 14 models swirling down the runway wearing flower-printed jersey in every shade of pink imaginable, from begonia, bougainvillea and poinsettia to lobster, raspberry, strawberry and watermelon. The designer called the look "hippie gypsy," and it included tiny bra tops covered by bolero jackets, Hungarian tunic blouses combined with tights or flowing midiskirts and curly hairdos bound up with kerchiefs. Jewels glinted from every ear, finger, neck, wrist, waist and ankle. Scott's version of this year's costume look was the hit of the show...
...Insisted Twiggy: "I'm exactly what I always was, 92 lbs." Whatever she weighs, the 19-year-old British model has made herself over so that she looks almost feminine. She has traded her body stocking and "all those flattening boyish things" for a real girl's bra, now wears more or less normal makeup instead of marking her eyes with heavy, horizontal pencil lines. She is letting her hair grow "as long as it'll go, down to me feet." In Manhattan to begin a promotion tour for Yardiev cosmetics, she just laughed when asked whether...
...conflict was one-sided. King Richard was fortunate that the TV cameras could not see everything. One night, a cop overtook a young girl fleeing from tear gas. Grabbing her by the hair, he hit her across the face with his nightstick, ripped off her blouse, ripped off her bra.

What follows is verbal love play and a kind of spoofy striptease in which the twosome gingerly play on the supposed skittishness of the audience. After a mock wedding ceremony in front of a barber pole ("Do you, Pandy, take this girl Mandy, because she is randy?"), a climactic libation scene occurs. Pandy and Mandy put on green mitts the size of baseball gloves and sponge each...
...away from the beach without a cover-up is out of her mind," says Designer Brigance. Even on the beach, girls are likely to feel the need of protection from sunburn, windburn, sandstorms and stares. To cope with the problem, some suits, called "stripper-dippers," come in three pieces-bra, pants and a removable midsection. Other cover-ups range from elongated sweaters that reach mid-calf (elsewhere called dresses) to Donald Brooks's coolie shirts, which just cover the suit at the hip line. Some of the most elegant are the ankle-length caftans, many of them without sleeves...
