Cowes fashions will follow the 5 newer trends. In addition to the navy serge, white-wool coats, and brass buttons, there are very young- looking and immaculately tailored Tsuits in the orthodox grey flannel; and a new shade of green-grey flannel has a faint white stripe which is most attractive.. The slin

one-linked fastening of green and chromium and two smaller orna. ments of the same on the turn- 31 back musculine cuff.
