Modified Ivy
The modified version Is often known as the
natural look suit. The shoulders are mora
natural than they used to be but still have little
padding. The lapels are narrower, but not ex-
uemely 50. The coat usually has three buttons
tsometnnes two) but they are not placed as high
as m the Ivy. The trousers are a little simmer
than last year but they are stil pleated IN front
ana have no buckle in the back.
This modified style has taken over an aston

according to the Clothing Manufacturers Associ-
alton.
The last time such major change was seen

War II That was when shoulders were broadened
with heavy padding and Iapels were flared out
to show wide often loud tie
In its extreme form that style was known as
the "drape shape"
Clothing merchants and manufacturers are
delighted by the new trend, of course. Fashion
