SUMMERY CHIFFON TO WINTER WEIGHT VELOUR.—This romantic ballgown (above) in white wool chiffon won the supreme award in the 1964 Wool Fashion Contest. The high, intricately-draped Empire waistline is emphasised by a filmy black rose. The skirt falls in narrow folds. The designer was Joan Todd of "Salon Fantasia," Wellington. On right: The swinging coat in pumpkin heavy velour won a gold medal for Mr R. H. Wadman of Christchurch, designed under licence from Leroy of Melbourne. It is seamed high for an Empire-line effect and low for the flaring skirt, which gives plenty of room for dashing about in the jet-age. A matching muffler can be worn on wintry days.
