...give a damn any longer what people think," declares Manhattan Career Girl Pam Zauderer, 23. Not exactly a novel or revolutionary notion. Still, she was raised in Chanel suits picked out by her mother, and she now goes dining and dancing in pants-shaggy fur ones for the gaucho look at a party given by Vogue Editor Diana Vreeland, fringed satin ones for the Indian look at a Four Seasons reception for Yves Saint Laurent. Post-Deb Cathy Macauley, 21, shows up in Manhattan for the superformal opening of the Metropolitan Opera season wearing black culottes, an extravagantly embroidered...
From Peru came an Indian who an swered all questions with "Cuzco," meaning that was his home town. A Uruguayan peasant, Roberto Rodriguez, wore bombachas (Gaucho-type bloomers), and there was even a black peasant-delegate from Haiti. During the Pope's speech, the honored peasants sat behind him on a flag-decked platform.

It's just that he has this gas about things South American; so naturally that led to an Yves St. Laurent Argentine pony-skin jacket to set off a dashing pair of matching boots by Paris' Roger Vivier. Gaucho Rudi wears the getup whenever the mood strikes him, as with Dame Margot Fonteyn and Princess Margaret...
...talk antique: "Those teeny-boppers are a caution." Getting the Message. Women, after years of going hatless, are now covering up again. At the moment, the vogue for hats is running strongest in Paris, where the noctambules show up at La Coupole in Montparnasse wearing floppy Garbo-style fedoras, gaucho hats with chin straps, and overgrown newsboy caps. One reason that hats are back on top is that there is suddenly much less hair underneath. Short hair cuts, among them what Parisians call le Farrow and I'Artichaut, are replacing the elaborate bouffant hairdos that made hats hard...
