Separaties Go Together The dictionary defines proportion as "the proper relation between ail the parts. " So does Helene Sidel. "Proportion is what fashion is aIl about these days," says the designer whose separates business has zoomed like Voyager Il in the past couple of years. "There is no longer one shape or one length, but there is something more important than they ever were, and that's an interesting and often un- expected balance that makes the costume look attractive on the body." The Spring 1981 Helene Sidel collection is a happy exercise in two basic equa- tions; balancing an clon- gated top above a short- ened pant or skirt, or top- ping a long-fine pant or skirt with a brisk, litle short jacket. "There is a new kind of softness, full and lush, which 1 like to contrast with very sharply cut jackets and pants or skirts," says the designer. j Much of this softness cornes from the different way ruffles are used, double at the hein of her "jump-dress," at the knee of knickers, and giving extra movement to short skirts. The designer particular- lx' loves balancing differ- cnt textures in the same color, and this collection continues that idea.

To independent grocers, these figures are downright depressing, particularly when the share of market held by chain stores has risen striking- ly in Enany provinces. N'et Quebec's independents are tackling the chain stores head on, and winning. In that province, the chains hold (>nly 4007o of the market, down slightly from the pre- vious vear. One reason: the Quebec government has supported in- dependent grocers by allowing them Io) sel a selection ofi beer and wines, thus offsetting some of the hu.iing power and N*44ý 'ý Have you vis ited us latey?

In Ontario, where the chains hold 75%1 of the marke, the opposite is hap- pening. The province has allowed wine Io be sold in more (han 30 kiosks attached to supermarkets, providing a dr-4wing card for the chains, rather (han the independents. Meanwhile, British Colum- bia is seriously considering beer and wine sales for in- dependents, and many other provinces are discussing the issue. As the Quebec situation in- dicates, wine sales for in- dependent grocers could help save the smaller stores from extinction. * i'NOUNlCEMENTS ~J/~/~ *RECEPTION CARDS *INVITATIONS *THANK YOU CARDS PubIshe IbyGANOFIErmSonIof He r jet teQue InFi) Colour!
