New Zealand Fashion Scene

Summer time is fashion time, a time to cast aside that winter wardrobe and head for the great outdoors in the swingin' styles of 66-67.

This month we feature the coming range of beach fashions, casual wear, and evening attire. Modelling the garments exclusively for "Photo News" are three Australian beauty contest winners (below), Misses Cheryl Waller (Miss Marina), Wendy Gibbes (Miss Golden Girl), and Marita Fagerstrom (Miss Gold Coast).
