Unbest-Dressed Men

London.

The Duke of Windsor and Mr Harold Macmillan, the British Prime Minister, have been named among the world's six "unbest-dressed" men by the men's fashion magazine, "Man About Town."

Both men once figured on the best-dressed lists complied by Tallor and Cutler," the trade magazine which publishes

"Man About Town."

Othere on the "unti- dressed" list included Ameri- can planist Liberace and rock

rull singer Elvis Presley.

Commenting on his choice of the Duke of Windsor, the former King Edward Elghin of Ex- land, the editor, Mr John Taylor, said: "I'm afraid he's got older und fashion is really a young person's thing. Like so many past middle age, he people seems to dress in an outett style which reminds him of the heyday of his life, but which no longer at all in vogue." WELL KEPT
