Often a man starts to business in the morning, knowing that he is going to the theatre or taking dinner downtown that evening, without having time to go home and dress. It is for exactly such an emergency that we designed, and now ‘present for the first time, the’ “Club Coat” Suit—a remarkably handsome Suit of distin- guished style. The original was cut and made for us by one of the foremost cus- tom tailors of New York, and its excel- lence of line and fine finish have been per- petuated with’ the utmost care in these. opale wih a tieip vollng lapel Sik, bound opens a rolling lapel, is si ni around the collar, cuffs, ets, and in fact, its whole outline. The higl -cut waistcoat with a collar is braided to match. The “Club Coat” Suit is sufficiently formal in ay ice to put a man at his ease at dinner or fe pay, or the afternoon tea or reception at which he may wish to drop in on his way up- town. Yet it is by no means too “dressy” for the business man to wear at his office. We are sure that this new Suit, which is an- other example of Gimbel leadership as Men’s Outfitters, will be welcomed by New York men of taste in dress. Exclusively at GIMBELS; price, $35.
