Presenting a Preview
The Styles of Tomorrow---Today
A new flattering version of the double-
breasted that is actually two styles in
one. A unique lapel construction per-
mits the coat to be worn with either
I or 2 buttons, with the broad sweep-
ing lapels retained either way. It's a
style feature designed to harmonize
smartly with masculine requirements.
In solid -colors and patterns.
The same broad sweeping lapels as on
the double-breasted add a most wel-
come and distinctive style note to the
casual ease of the single-breasted. No
longer will you have to shy away from
single-breasted because of narrow
lapels and skimpy looks. Truly, a cham-
pagne toast to your appearance. Shown
in select new patterns and colors.
