Vivid splashes of colour to brighten the Ski Slopes

Colour co-ordinated, practical, snugly fitting ski suits, jackets and bib pants set the scene for the 1977 range of ski fashions. Fabrics are nylon, and most of them have special no-slide surfaces, to help stop you skidding down the slopes when you take a fall. All are moisture-proof. From left, two co-ordinated ski outfits from Olympia. His jacket is in shades of blue and

white, in no-slide, lined nylon, and his ski pants are of matching fabric. Her outfit is in dark brown no-slide nylon, with a cream floral pattern, and a contrasting plain cream panel on the jacket. The matching bib pants are also in the brown and cream floral design. Both jackets have nylon hoods sewn into the inside neck. Warmth and snug-fitting styles are emphasised in two Bohla ski outfits, second from left. His ski suit is cleverly designed with a jacket which zips on to the trousers, and is completely detatchable for apres-ski wear. It is in blue and red no-slide nylon, and is immaculately styled for maximum warmth and neatness of fit. Hers is in brown, orange and beige no-slide nylon, with a short jacket, allowing for plenty of movement, and bib pants. Norsewear has also produced carefully colour co-ordinated skiwear for 1977. His steel blue jacket and matching bib pants is in no-slide nylon, and has two-way stretch fabric inset at stress points under the arms and at the shoulders, to allow for miximum movement when ski-ing. Her ski-suit is in sea-green, no-slide nylon, with navy, two-way stretch inset panels for extra movement under the arms and at the back waist. Both have thick plastic zippers. Goggles, gloves and hats are from the wide range available at Snowline Sport.
