Know-How Needed For See-Throughs NEW YORK See-throughs are great but what do you see through to? Pants are sweeping the country and city but who can wear them? It takes know-how a planning to wear these "now" looks. A sheer shift wears well four ways: covering a beach- bikini, lined with a bra-slip, lined with a body slocking, and layering a knit jumpsuit.

Other newsy see-lbroughs include shirl-lops of slretch or gauzy fabrics, vests a dresses of open crochet, and lace everywhere. You can wear these if you're slender, trim and not overly endowed But if your figure is full of faults, rule yourself oul. In any case, a see-through thai sees too much is laboo. Pants today range from casual straight-leg jeans and wide-stride jumpsuits to extensions of your a i dress-up dresses. Anyone who isn't overweight can wear hem.

If you're tiny, buy straight-leg panls and short of and jumpsuits. If you're 'all, wear pants hip-low and eggy; cut your long line with jelled tunic-tops. Girls Like Guys With Short Hair!
