1965 | FALL FASHION - SHOPPING TIPS




TESTO ORIGINALE:
(Cappotti e tailleur in stile classico) "per durare una lunga stagione e speriamo un paio d'anni ancora, almeno.

Calze e scarpe si comprano sempre all'inizio dell'autunno, perché quelle dell'anno scorso saranno finite o sciupate". Ma non deve trattarsi di una bella scarpa "qualunque", di una calza comprata a casaccio".

ORIGINAL TEXT:
(Classic coats and suits) "to last a long season and hopefully a couple more years, at least.

Socks and shoes must be bought in early autumn, because last year shoes will be ravaged or worse. But it should not be a generic beautiful shoe or a common sock."
