cloth has "body" and so does
not wrinkle easily. Suits are
available in double breasted and
single breasted styles. The coat
to the white whipcord suit may
be worn with gray or fancy
SlackS, and looks extremely well.
GlimpSed in the MayfloWer
lounge the other day was man
in double breasted white whip
cord coat with gray "glen" plaid
Slacks and all white shoes. He
wore yellow oxford shirt ard
regimental striped necktie, and
looked very smart.
This costume, either the whole
suit or with odd trousers, may
be worn for business or for
sports. The suit, worn as suit,
is not a bad choice for summer
evenings, if you haven't a regu-
lar outfit such as the white
tuxedo.
