What’s New in Fashion?<br />
This season in northern Europe<br />
it’s all about distorting the natu-<br />
ral figure by padding sleeves,<br />
doublets, and stockings. Italy is<br />
following the trend lightly but is<br />
sticking to more medieval influ-<br />
enced styles. Colors this year are<br />
strong, often dark colors. One<br />
trend that you can spot becoming<br />
more popular is women wear-<br />
ing the low-crowned hat in the<br />
same fashion as the men are.<br />
Other trends that have been<br />
catching on include, heavy mate-<br />
rials, large sleeves, large hip<br />
clothing, and wide-toed shoes.
