Such a staid and conservative publication as Business Week has taken notice of the revolution in men’s wear. A recent issue featured a cover picture of a captain of industry decked out in a Nehru jacket, buckle shoes and peach slacks.

Business Week may be a little late. It is reported that more colored dress shirts are now sold than white, more than twice the proportion of only a few years ago when a white shirt was standard dress wear.

It is obvious that haircut styles for men are changing. A crew cut, on young or old, is as dated as World War II. Hair runs down the back of the neck, curls over the ears, and blocks the forehead.

The smartest men’s stores now feature beads and medallions for neckwear, ruffled shirts, and fragrances for almost anything.

Contemplating this revolution on a hot, humid July afternoon, it can only be hoped that the next step is right back to the American Indian.

A breech clout and a pair of moccasins without socks seems both logical and adequate.
