Iridescent Woollen

Sophie Original

By PRUNELLA WOOD IRIDESCENT wools, fabrics which combine two or more tints so closely and affectionately that they glow attractively, are one of Sophie's 1950- enthusiasms. They do light up the ensemble for gloomy winter days, and slip into chilly tropical settings without looking out of climate.ben

The slim ready-to-wear frock with nice, hem width, shown here, vibrates moss green and pheasant gold in its pin-checked wool. A tle of striped elk displays the same colours boldly, and slips in a new way across the wide top of the V neckline...which buttons way down, as the phrase goes, with wool- covered buttons.
