A silver New Years Eve 1999 New Years 2000 Dress, very popular in Canada this New Years from Le Chateau!

Trends Here In Canada

We can see that recently, bras have become quite expensive. Teenagers and Women are now seen wearing them under open blouses, open jackets - in order to show them off. With costs from 6 to 130 dollars, this trend can be understood, if you pay that much you might as well show it off!

In Men's ties we see the Satin look. Pink, blue, silver, grey and black. As usual, the width of Men's ties vary considerable, currently around 3.5 inches

Attempts to bring fur coats back into fashion were seen this winter. Due to long term opposition to furs due to Animal Rights and the fact that many of us are not exposed to bitter cold much (heated cars, houses) I do not think furs will establish much of a comeback.

Leather shoes will continue to provide comfort to many. Plastic has never been my choice.

In the USA at the Grammy Awards (Music Awards) the presenters almost without exception, both male and female, were wearing leather. This type of display can have a lot of influence on people who want to dress like the people on TV. Looks like leather will be fashionable and of course expensive!

Last New Years women were in silver. Now that we are on the verge of Spring/Summer 2000 expect lime green, very light green, pink, light grey, bone, black and the regular colours orange, caramel and very light soft colours.

Here are some colour swatches:

As you can see this web site is fairly big so although I could show you many more fashions I think it is best to leave the site at this size. Please keep supporting this museum. Many Thanks Carmo
