From present indications it would seem that black is being out-stripped for spring by bright and dark navy and a new chade which Bruyere calls Santorin, after an island in the Mediterranean. This is a vivid green- blue. Creed likes a bright navy and Piguet enjoys comblaing navy with red, even lining navy coats with red which brings to mind the rather Important fact that coloured and con- trasting linings are "in."
