Sensible Summer Garb A Hundred Styles
Think of a Norfolk suit most men would scarcely chance one. -That belt
in front is a bit too much. But the belt sack coat has belt in back only; stitched
flat, to hold the pleats. Who'will wear it? Merchant, banker, lawyer, chief
men of all ages, in every walk of life and along that walk. A bit more shapely
than the sack suit that London calls a "lounge suit" putting a bit of figure to
fat men or lean. It needn't be buttoned up isn't entirely. The coat having
one to three buttons.
$15, $17.50, $20, $25, $30
The high-point of the fashion is the suit in green cricket flannel. But it
is here in blue, gray, brown and more than fifty mixtures favorably those
showing humps in the weave a la Bannockburn. These are three-piece suits;
r
in many the vest is unlincd, with back of silk. The coat is apt to be quarter-silk-'
lined- Serge Suits at $15 to $30
Kuppenheimer" Suits and Overcoats, $20 to $40.
"Society Brand" Suits and Overcoats, $20 to $40.
The Gimbel store leads Philadelphia in the growth of1 its men's clothing
