Latest fashion gimmick in Fiji is the tapa waistcoat—for him and her. It's modelled here by Raewyn Trafford, a New Zealander who is doing quite a bit of modelling in Fiji these days, and rugged-looking Fijian, Taniela Uluiviti. The coat was devised by designer Cherie Whiteside. Made from genuine tapa cloth from Lau, it sells for $F5.50. It isn't washable but it dry-cleans quite well. Meanwhile, the maxi in Fiji . . . Dark haired New Zealander Raewyn Trafford was one of the models in the Hibiscus Fashion Festival at the Hotel Isa Lei in Septem ber. Outfit is from London, and features a maxi-length coat with long slacks underneath.—Photo, left: Stan Ritova.
