The trouble with most
evening garments is that
they are more tunCrcnt
than .tcstirc.
We personally treat
the subject more in the
light of a lire proposition
than a dedd issue.
q Figuratively speaking,
Saks evening clothes are
tailored with the spirit Of
a good time.

garment, for example, is

though the wearer had
been poured into it and

@ Frankly, there is moth
ing to it but Saks' when
it comes to evening
clothes they are the
