Viyella fino Cannel ensures restful sleep and minimises the discomfort and danger of changes of the temperature. Buoyantly light, Viyella is protective without any suggestion of stodginess. It guards your health during humid nights by alisorbing excessive moisture and radiating it, a fact that obviates dangerous uncomfortable clamminess.
And no matter how exacting the conditions of wear and washing, you can depend upon Viyella' playing its part with a brave and earefree heart. No matter how often this rich looking fabric-with its smart, unobtrusive designs-is washed, an improvement in appear- ance is the only noticeable difference.
