BY courtesy of Maggy Rouff and a brave little shop near the Kow- loon Star Ferry concourse, Paris has at last arrived in Hongkong.

Not just to admire from afar on a catwalk, but for you to buy— if you are lucky enough to bave the sort of money that it takes.

The four outfits shown here al- together hit the grand total of $1,610!

There are 17 outfits in the collection, designed by one of the fashion capital's gayeat designers.

Cherries

Maggy Rouff creates for the young at heart. Her colours zing with life and she has struck the prevailing fashion note by pinning big clusters of shiny cherries onto many of her boilices.

This is a licorice-all-sorts Hetection from the famous fashion house. There are rilk sheaths, accordian-pleated organzas, Gigi-type boxy suita, and streamlined cont and dress ensembles.

They are heady clothes, rich and sein- tillating, full of the sophisticated atmos- phere that is Paris.

Just add one to your wardrobe, and all your other clothes will shrink into corner with shame.
