With time off from royal commitments, the designer showed about 100 models, including simple town suits, elegant day dresses, short evening styles and court gowns lavishly trimmed with mother of pearl. The severe plainess of the first design was typical of Hartnell shows. It was beige tweed dress and long loose coat that some elegant woman might soon wear for a three fee. The simplicity of its tailored styling was broken only by stitched braces running down the back of the dress to a matching belt. FORMAL ELEGANCE arternoon a n'd cocktail dresses followed.
