Royal children styles for the
sef
very young..
By PATRICIA DOUGLAS
AVERYBODY loves the
EY
pictures of Princess Anne and Prince Charles, casually dressed in trews and sweaters at playtime; trimly-styled from head to foot for public appearances.
Mothers of young childrer want them to look the same, and
have manufacturers been quick to respond to this demand for the Royal Look.
Left to right: 1. A young man feels in the mode when be la wearing a Prince Charles “Coogan" cap, and quite grown up in long trousers just like father's. The trousers have sip fasteners, and are supported by adjustable braces. 2. Long slacks replace leggings in this Minimode three-piece for gif. The feminine touch is provided by the wide collar and the perky velvet "ears" on the halo hat. 3. Panels of smocking below the yoko give a nursery touch to a walking-out sult for the tiniest toddlers. The leggings have a removable lining: the cute French bonnet is rathered into four peaks on the crown. 4. A well-tailored roofer ecat, with raglan shoulders and high-fitting collar. The buttoning is roversible so that the coat can be worn by boy or girl. 5. A new knitting technique makes the all-round pleats in this kilt durable. The pleats are knitted into the fabric and cannot come out in the wash, Adjustable straps on the Austrian-style braces give room for little girls to grow, 6. Wool fartan trews are practical playtime wear for girls or boys. These are cut with adjustable waistbanda, deep patch pockets, and good hems. Worn later with woollen turtle-necked sweaters they give splendid protection against cold,
