?s Morton Myles, Malcolm Charles & material

[themerchantsofvintage]

I'm calling this mid 60s mod my Fort Knox plaid suit and I'd like to know what you call this type of material - the black base on the coat and dress skirt feels and looks like a wool jersey.

I found some info on Morton Myles - he designed for Jackie when John was a Senator and turned 75 this month - here: http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/04186/340305.stm

Does anyone have any other info on him or Malcolm Charles?

Moucho gracias!

Now that is one cool outfit Deborah! Am sat here waiting for fish fingers to cook and reading the sunday fashion supplement (it's been a busy week, lol) and it is all about short metallic toned dresses!

I shall have a dig about for you but know nothing of the top of my head about Malcolm Charles, sadly.

Thanks, Harriet! Oh good - they're coming back, are they?
