Every man has his own ideas about the sort of
clothes he wants. You too have certain notions about
style, fabric and price. Our salesmen know our stock
and they know about style. If you talk thinrs over
with them, exchange views on the subject, you will
undoubtedly arrive at a satisfactory result.
In this way you will realise why one fabric is
better suited to you than another, why one style will
appear to better advantage than another. The assort
ment of models and fabrics permits an exercise of
personal choice which is practically unlimited.
