Left, plain dress, in taupe wool, that relics for attraction on a loose pleated panel and pleated bow falling over the belt. This panel is an immense fan shape when lifted, and gives a graceful move- ment to the skirt.

Right, fine grey wool crepe dress, horizontally tucked from neck to hem. Contrary to popular supposition, it docs not make the wearer look bulky. The wide flat tucks have a slimming effect on a person of normal proportions.

Those who arrived early were able to see the famous Chelsea Flower Show. Those who have any spare time during their crowded two weeks can watch the Trooping of the Colour on the King's Birth- day, the Royal Tournament at Earls Court, and the Royal Horse Show at Richmond.
