Hawke's Bay Tribune, Volume XXII, Issue 270, 29 October 1932, Page 11

The smart woman does not send away to other towns for her frocks for there is nothing more modern to be had than the two-piece ensembles in all the pew bright colours now showing at Slater’s, Heretaunga street, Hastings, near the railway crossing. The alluring sheep of silk crepe Romaine, and the soft texture of silk Krinkley crepe in plain and spotted designs, with long or short sleeves, coatees or boleros, and becoming bodices of the newest silk designs are specially displayed now.* Men’s clothes now are so novel and attractive that womenfolk too are taking quite an interest in modern masculine fashions. Did you see in the English papers that the Prince of Wales now dons a straw boater hat for hot days? Already straw boaters are being worn in Hawke's Bay, and men who look distinctive are finding out the smartness in matching shirts, collars and ties. The newest English fashions come quickly to H. Blackmore and Coy.’s, Hastings.*
