DRESS OF THE KING
ADOPTED FASHION LEADER TOWN AND COUNTRY WEAR LONDON, July 4. The King has been adopted by men’s tailors and outfitters as their leader of fashion. Details of every suit or hat or shirt the King wears are being supplied to West End tailors, who immediately bring them to the notice of their customers. Generally speaking, the King is slightly more formal than the Duke of Windsor. His main preferences are morning suits of grey, except for special occasions, when he wears black. His morning shirts are plain blue or white with double eufls.. His collars are white and starched, and are of the double type, cut away, with a wide inverted “V.” His ties are blue and grey or black and white. For country wear, the King prefers Shetland tweeds, with checks, and brightly-coloured check shirts and ties.
