A tweed dress and a matching coat are a practical ensemble for early spring wear. One charming example is a smart, short-sleeved little frock, with the top part la á contrasting colour, and a short coat to match. It's a useful and easy-to-wear ensemble.

Excellent for wearing under a fur coat is a Buft in light-weight wool- lan material, the collar and cuffs and pocks piped with striped cord ed silk to match the waistcoat.
