In the Spring

Yes, I can surely see that it will bo a case of “the old order c.hangcth” in the spring of 1932. Wo shall be appearing with “I have bought British” written all over us, states the Paris correspondent of “The Queen.” But we shall look none the less smart because of it. For what could be more chic than a costume of jet and ivory chenille tweed from Scotland with black and white leather trimmings from Lancashire? Or what more charming than a suit of the new corduroy jersey fabric that Leicestershire has dared to produce? Then there is a very successful artificial silk velvet which is—glad news—uncrushable. This threatens to invade the evening mode—and why not, pray? It will be a boon indeed. Creed is an old English firm having a.n immense prestige in Paris, and he has, I hear, imposed a very smart travelling ensemble made of Scotch t-wced with a large check pattern consisting of a coat and skirt, with a large top coat to match. This is most useful for travelling or motoring, or for shooting parties, and looks so much tidier than those suits where the jacket, the skirt and the top coat are all of different materials.
