Mapped out for the sweater
girl-impact round the clock
by
Jill Butterfield
M willing to wager that a good quarter of every woman's week is spent in a sweater. Everyone knows their worth- they pack like a dream, wear for ever, bridge that seemingly endless gap between spring and
summer.
But only the on-the-spot fashion girl knows their new fashion value. Not so long ago a sweater was a sweater. You wore it with tweed skirts. And little pearl necklaces. And brogues. And only in winter.
But look what they can kult into a hit these days. British designers have done as much for the sweater as Parisian couturier Chanel did for the suit.
They have made them go everywhere Superbly. But it's up to you to choose them with care, wear them with con- fidence, and dress them up with all the duzzle in your jewellery box.

NOW--the jonger. unwaisted shape. Every girl knows the effect of a pathetic little feminine figure huddled in a man's borrowed sweater- but the impact is intensified when the sweater is a super sunny colour, when the collar is cnt to flatter, when the yarn takes care of itself. So buy your own.
NEW FOR NOW-another borrowing from the boys--the tailored polo shirt will neut the collar and a neat tile welt Choose it in a good strong colour-cogiar brown looks classy in towns or country.
NEW FOR NOW-A xuit like the crochet. It looks astronomically expensive, is prettiest in pale milky colours and cut into a classic cardigan shape,
NEW FOR NOW-the summer evening sweater. The new ones now hitting the shops with are ravishingly pretty patterned roses, printed with buds and cut into chic simple sleeveless shapes.
Monroe and Mansfield gave the sweater new contours. But it took the British manu- facturers to put them on the map.
