Grey, 100, goes with grey. |light grey suit, worn with dark grey accessories, blouse, and hat is high fashion; it is a flattering colour, easy to wear, and ageless.

I liked most of all the grey worsted suit; in Hunting Mac- Pherson tartan, shown In the sketch.

It has the now straight skirt with a loose centre back fly- away panel.

The jacket has a shaped waist, long elongated waistcoat points, jet buttons. It can be worn open or closed at the throat.

The suit looks equally smart with town accessories and high- heeled shoes or with brogues

and a beret.

It is important, when buying a suit, to choose material which has a close weave so that the skirt does not "sil out,"

Never wear the skirt without the jacket, and keep the collar of the jacket well brushed and free from make-up."
