Clothes Cautious

Recent predictions that the coming thing for the sartorially correct male will include stovepipe pants and string ties have the guns banging for and against.

Two predictions look safe: 1. Most University men will continue to favour the shaggy, baggy look; 2. The majority of Kiwis will wait in the wings to see what happens before stepping out with caution and self-consciousness. Ah, bold men! Apparently, anyone wishing to be first in future fashions will have to keep an eye on the "Teds" and other maligned sections of society. There's something silly somewhere.
