NOTE) — The Children's Art Carnival is a 3-year old non-profit organi zation sponsored by Now York’s Museum of Modern Art and lt;.:aled in uptown New York. It’s a place where kid^j from to 13 learn to create in all /media — papt‘r bag.s, string, yarn, fabrics, day, paint, pa per, metal, felt, etc. Only grownups think art is a picture you hang on a wall! Any area Si aooi can have art instruction scheduled there; some 750 a week attend. Models in this stGry are really members of the Cliildren’s Art Carnival, posing with creative work of liieir ow-n or oi their Iriends. All the youngoters are fashion ex^jcrts this Fall; it's a free wheeling fashion season in which young individualists insist on do ing iileir own thing. Parents no longer determine the back-to- school clothing story . . . even the youngcct chiidren kn(>w what they like and have delinite opinicns as to what they will and won’t wear. The mood of children’s wear this Fall is young and free with lots of intcfchangeabie parts and patternj. Colors go bright and fabrics go soil. Woolens are lush, plush, bru^'hed, napped and fleeced... Burlington Woolens w'hite ground brushed plaicL; ajid primary mel tons star in outerwear. Tradition al dun plaids on non-traditional fabrics such as Galey & Lord's seersucker . . . modern giant or mini plarids on Erwin-Moorcs- vine’s easy-care pclye.ster/cotlon ginghams and brushed flannel look fresh and exciting after last year’s gecmetricc . . . stripes, dots and e'hecks mix and match in dark and light tones. Animal print.s, wee ge metrics and ex otic herder prints star on Klop- man’s Orion challis. Flannel re turns to the fashion ifore in neu trals and soft monotones of gray, camel and cream . . .

'em ses and separates. THE SHAPE NEWS LN BRIEF... KNIT TOP3, the superstars of the last couple of Falls, continue — make news when they go over one another, over body suits, dresses or woven shirtings. THE BIG PUT ON is the big gest fashion story of all for back-to-school ’72. (Good if it’s for real in multiple pieces or simu lated — the effect of layers in one-piece garments. BODY SUITS tops in shirt looks and turtleneck styles. For DRESS SHAPES, it’s the dolman, the smock, the jean dress, the one-piece layered look, the twin sweater and the pina fore. . JEANS continue, but fashion impact comes from TROUSERS with turned-up cuffs, hi-rise waists and front pleats. SKIRTS are either knee length or to the floor and worn with layers of blouses, knit tops and sweatciTS. HOODED ALL-PURPOSE JACK ETS, BATHROBE OR CLASSIC RAINCXIATS are early Fall outer wear shaipeg — in orushed wool plaids or easy care year-round twills. In short, fashion ’72 is an art- play, one that everybody wins, made to be broken. It's a message that will make the classroom scene a real art carnival this year — 'but far more exciting than it was in the days when everyone wore Shetland crew- necks and pleated skirts.
