This hes entailed personal visits, in the company of his tailors, to a London woollen warehous where he has astonished the experts by his knowledge of worsteds, cheviots and saxonies, His purchases include a doubicbreasted black jacket and vest, to be worn with glen check trousers, and an overcoat in a beige shade. The Duke has chosen thin light-weight material for most of his clothes; some of the three-piece suits weigh only three pound.
