Advice To Duke On Choice Of Clothes
(Special Correspondent—N.Z.P.A.) Reed. 7.5 p.m. London, June 8
The Duke of Edinburgh’s method of knotting his tie and his style in collars are criticised by the British tailors’ magazine, “Men’s Wear.” The magazine however, applauds the Duke’s choice of sports jackets. “No one suggests that the Duke should become a walking tailor’s dummy,” says the magazine, “but if he could be advised on and supplied with the very best clothes British master craftsmen can make, then a standard could be set. Recently he appeared in a well-cut suit spoiled by a badly-knotted tie and an ill-fitting collar.”
