H, what clothes shall I tako with me?
Is that your holiday problem? Most women solve it by the "Just In case" method. For this you take two or three suitesses, a hat-box, a holdall and a shopping basket, and into these you pack EVERYTHING........just in case!
But now there is another answer. You can pick up all your holiday troubles in ONE kitbag, and a small one at that.
Look at the dress in the big ploturo (left). It is cut on modern princess lines in mid-grey Bonnel, with round neck and a straight skirt.
But it is more than that. It is a seven-in- one dress, a basle dress that gives you a different outfit for every day of the week.
