Fashion notes' indicate the
twilled, khaki colored fabric is
popular In slacks for spring,
summer 1972 as it was in tne
1950's Chlno will be found in
bush suits, bush jackets and
shorts, but where it will make
the fashion impact is with jeans.
True Chlno fabric is a mer
cerized cotton with a shiny
finish. Today, however, you will
find Chinos made ; with
polyester-cotton blends. The
look Is crisp and a natural for
the "PuUed Together" fashions.
Although Chlno is usually
thought of as men's wear fabric,:
it is being used in sportswear
fanhlAna for vountt fiirls and
women.
Chlno was originally khaki
colored. For 1972 the fabric
takes on a range of colors, and
may even be printed, brushed,
or embossed.:. '
With reasonable care Chlno
should maintain its shiny finish
without difficulty. Yes, the
fabric can be washed, but for
optimum preservation of its
shiny, ' crisp appearance, dry
cleaning is recommended.
