Subdued, muted, hazy, murky, or just plain dirty green was the color of the year. The gentlemen of I960 preferred wool slacks with a bulky sweater and print, paisley, or oxford shirt. Mademoiselle's skirts were somewhat shorter, or, depending on how you look at it, legs were longer. Shoe-boots, reminiscent of Robin Hood’s footwear. were favorite among the ladies. The wide tops, however, made them somewhat uncomfortable on rainy days. All shoes featured the pointed-toe look, dangerous in crowded halls. A G.V. girl was seen with her hair pixie-style one day and in a long shimmering pony tail the next. How so? Hair wigs. A G.V. male was protected from the elements in a car coat, suburban coat, hero jacket, or trench coat topped off by a Tyrolean-style hat. complete with brush and ski medals. For the girls, raccoon coats were revived from the twenties. Six seniors wore contact lenses. Sometimes the illusive plastic wonders would pop out and frantic was the search for the wearer’s eyes. This year also saw squash heels, continental suits, box pleated skirts, French rolls, tier blouses, blazers, crew-necks, boat-necks, shawl collars, vests, and chinos. Bustle sales were definitely down for the year, as was the sale of three-cornered hats. 12
