The fashion flair is probably apparent in Christine Alber's cossack tunic blouse, and swirling circular skirt of printed acrylic knit. Another interesting innovation is a striped chal-lis wrap blouse that leaves a lot of decolletage protected by a tiny matching bra. These are teamed with solid-color pants.
