summer clothes they have dreamed up for summer 1961. Such (writes Barbara Griggs) is the Alice-in- Wonderland situation the fashion business has got itself into that rows of these summer clothes will be going into the shops at the end of this month, before Christmas.

How and why? Simple: wholesale houses 'shour earlier and earlier these days; deliveries to shops start --

So clothes sell out earlier and earlier and earlier. earlier ever tried to buy a cotton dress in June?

This July-at-Christmas system has no particular snage for wholesaler or retailer. Either way the clothes get sold. But from your point of view and mine it has two serious disadvantages.

FIRST: It is becoming increasingly difficult to buy the clothes FOR the season DURING the season; cottons in June, warm woollens in December.

SECOND: Paris now reaches us with a full sea- son's lag and more --- Dior's sleeveless long-torso look, for instance, made to look very Beat in dark winter wools, will be flooding the shops in summer cottons.

Since the fashion market here isn't mammoth enough to have four or five seasons a year as they do in America, there doesn't seem much hope of this crazy situation improving. Unless of course we get to the stage where autumn 1962 clothes are reaching the shops by January 1962...
