Comfort now comes in modish guise
It is fortunate that the protective comfort of Viyella' fine twill flannel comes in such a dainty and exquisite guise, because there never was before a fabric more in tune with sunshine or shadow,
Caressingly soft-its smooth even texture will not irritate the tenderest skin- Viyella' is as delightful to wear as it is channing to the eye. And when overheated bodies are cooling after a strenuous round of golf or a tennis set, Viyella' cbviates the danger of chill by absorbing excessive moisture and radiating it.
