takes the lead among these styles? Is it the elegance

of the dress and jacket outāt, the appeal of the empire line, or the novelty of the long tunic jacket? No, it is the simplicity of the tailored suit.

For, despite fashion's fancles which come and go each seasoni, the tailored suit goes on-yes, forever. It changes with each season it adopta ne silhouette, new colour, new fabele.

But

its usefulness and adoptability remain unchallenged.

Those buying a suit la London will find a wile price range. varying from £10 for a "ready- made" at one of the big stores, to upwards of £70 at one of the enuturlers. Wherever they

Ro they will find three things in keeping: the

new season's with uctie, the new fabrics and the new shades, The quality, of course, will vary.
