Their clothes always seem TO fit
them, never seem shabby Or to need
pressing.
these women are not always those
who spend the most time or money on
their apparel. Yet their clothes often
look better the second season than the
clothes Of other women look in the sec

What's the secret.
A part Of the secret really is a gift
the gift Of good taste and good judgment
in the choice Of clothes, and some Of it
is, Of course, carefulness, but the greate7t
credit is due not to the wearer at all, but
to the tailor who made the clothes.
When you buy suit, coat or a
skirt, you buy certain amount Of per
sonality, expressed in workmanship. If
