`Suwanee, Georgia, to acquire and/or preserve land for open space, greenspace, neighborhood parks,
`interconnected greenways and trails, and passive recreation areas, including improvements thereon and all
`costs incidental thereto, In the principal amount not to exceed $17,700,000?"
`
`Those in favor of the city taking on debt to acquire and preserve open space for these uses should vote
`"yes"; those opposed should vote "no."

`HEADLINE: BON MARCHE UNVEILS NEW PROTOTYPE.
`
`BODY:
`
`NEW YORK — The Ben Marche has stepped out with a new store prototype that, if successful, could serve
`as an expansion vehicle for other divisions of Federated Department Stores.
`
`The new Bon store, which opened last week in Helena, Mont., spans 65,000 square feet on one floor in a
`strip mall. Designed to create an efficient shopping experience, the fuil—iine store has a single entrance, a
`centralized customer service center, shopping carts and a streamlined assortment that is heavy on brands
`but excludes furniture.
`
`In men‘s, theassortment ranges from casual to career and includes Polo, Nautica and Timberland in
`collections, as well a strong denim statement from Polo Jeans, Nautica Jeans, Tommy Hilfiger Denim and
`Quiksilver. other brands include Nike, Adidas, File and Russell as well as Fedel-ated's own Aifani and Club
`Room private labels.
`
`"This store design represents opportunities for The Ben Marthe and other Federated divisions to service
`mid-sized communities around the country," said Dan Edelman, chairman and CEO of the Seattle-based
`retailer. "There is a lot of opportunity around the country for this format. we are In a mature industry that
`needs to be constantly reinvented."
`
`In addition, the smaller store cost "sig nlficantiy less" to build, he noted, "about a third less on a per-
`square-foot basis." The savings came mostly in the actual construction, given the reduced size of the store.
`Most Ban stores are 60,000 to 250,000 square feet, but these are all in the traditional department store
`fonnat.
`
`However, in Helena, the store "is not typical," Edelman explained. "It‘s in a strip center and because of
`that, we have one entrance in the front and centralized all cash registers in the front. That's very different
`for us." All apparel is displayed with rings and strips that make the sizes more visible. There are sca nnlng
`units to help customers check prices and customer call boxes to reach associates.
`
`Edelman said the company will track the Helena unit closely and give it six months before reaching a
`verdict on rolling out the concept. He said Bon alone has identified a half dozen markets in the Northwest
`that fit the same demographics and competitive landscape as Helena.

`These are strange times for the professional man and his wardrobe.
`variety of realities have converged in this post-Sept. 11, pre-holiday, mostly casual season to change the
`future of how many men dress at the office.
`
`Notably, manufacturers are cranking out more suits in a greater variety of colors, patterns and styles.
`Led by Tommy Hilfiger and i\iautica's David Chu, designer collections for next spring indicate that even
`casual menswear will look dressier.
`
`Many department stores and specialty shops have adjusted their strategies, placing more emphasis than
`before on suits and dressed-up looks for men.
`’
`
`And, in the midst of it all, casual continues, having evolved from dress-clown Friday in the 19905 to dress-
`down-Monday through Friday. But it's not the predominant look it once was.
`
`There are signs that the trend toward suits and dressier menswear is gaining momentum. From the sober
`introspection in the aftermath of the terrorist attacks to the plunge of the ultra-casual dot.com industry,
`professional men appear to be seeking a return to the dressier look of sons.
`
`"It has been an interesting phenomenon," said Usa Michael, buyer and co-owner of Larrirnor’s, one of
`Pittsburgh's premiere menswear stores. "Changes in the economy and a serious tone in the country have
`led a lot of people to want to show that they care about their work and their appearance. People are tired
`of seeing themselves and people around them look like they don't care because of the way they dress.“
`
`Michael noted that President Bush wears suits and expects his staff to do the same as a way of honoring
`the office. She suggested that the same philosophy appears to be influencing senior managers in the
`private sector and permeating corporate cultures from the top down.
`
`Others have observed the same trickle-down effect: Casually dressed senior executives -- wanting to
`cement their positions In a layoff-heavy economy —— are once again going for the professional image of dark
`suits, dress shirts and neckties.
`
`Tom Julian, a trend analyst for New York-based Fallon Worldwide, has seen a transition as he zigzags
`across U13 nation.

`
`"Since Sept. 11, we have seen so many cable and network folk become sensibly suited and simply
`necktieci,“ said Julian. "Not lots of colors, patterns and frills -—- basic dark sulm.
`
`"When we look at some of our public figures, they have taken advantage of the suit to present themselves
`as a stronger authority figure, as well as a distinguishable one. And that's very apparent from some of your
`TV anchors to your politicians to your expert opinion leaders. But I also think it was a safer way to exist
`and an ongoing way to exist."
`
`Larry Rubin, owner of Specialty Clothing, an upscale menswear store Uptown, also saw the effects of Sept.
`11 on how professional men dress.
`
`"Everyi:iody's a bit more serious, a bit more values-oriented. It doesn't pay to look sloppy and like you just
`don't give a damn."
`
`still, casuai dressing remains strong and is unlikely to die out. Rubin said some customers who are senior
`executives have spoken of casual dressing as a perk that would be difficult, if even possible, to rescind. So
`they stress appropriate business casual attire and wear suits themselves, hoping subordinates will fall in
`line.
`
`And retailers and designers are exerting more influence on how professional men dress for work.
`
`Consider what happened in October when Rubin themed his Fifth Avenue store window: "Suits are back in
`business.“ Noticing that more men were buying sulu, he put some of his finest in the window, added a sign
`listing "The Top 10 Reasons why Men Should wear Suits," and cut $50 off the price of every suit.
`
`Suit sales leaped 89 percent over September.
`
`Rubin acknowledged that such campaigns are a way of fighting the dominance of casual.
`
`"But at the same time," he said, "we have our own credibility at stake because we have spent the last
`couple of years telling people how to dress down, how to be business casual. It's important that we not be
`hypocritil. It's also important to put this in the right perspective: Suits are getting popular, but dress
`codes may not change."
`
`The absence of dress codes, in fact, contributed to inappropriate casual dressing at work and ultimately to
`what is happening now in menswear, contends Charles Spiegel, who sells John Varvatos and other top suit
`and sportswear labels at his Squirrel Hill men's store.
`
`"In business and everything, there needs to be direction and rules," said Spiegei. "In the old days, when
`they said you had to wear a white shirt and tie, everyone knew what to do. Now, they don't know what to
`do. Now there are no rules, and it's the companies‘ fault for not setting parameters."
`
`Many men are seeking guidance as they make the transition to dressier looks, Spiegel added, “because
`they have figured out that they can't do it on their own.“
`
`And they realize that image and perception are imporiz-ant.
`
`"The professional who doesn't have a client but still has to go to lunch, still has to do the things he
`normally has to do, is, like it or not, perceived in a certain manner," said Spiegel. "People still have
`expectations. Professionalism is the key word to everything."
`
`As suits gain renewed popularity among men, the challenge for designers will be to offer fresh, updated
`styles that younger guys will want to buy.
`
`Everett Hall, a top menswear designer based in Washington, D.C., is a leader in that regard. His menswear

`
`is strictly suits and true buslness—casuai ensembles, and twice a year he launches new lines that are
`elegant, tasteful and edgy.
`
`"I wear suits six days a week, and I also think that professionals want to wear suits," said Hall. "You have a
`new era of senior executives that are in their 30s and 40s, and they want something interesting. Guys
`aren't gonna just wear anything out there. You really have to carry new, innovative lines."
`
`But there appears to be few out there, Hall and Julian agreed. They predicted that menswear will see more
`big changes in the next few years.
