New zeland fashion scene

Miss Wool

Here to launch a Woolmark fashion campaign is a glowing 20-year-old brunette who holds the title of Miss Wool of America. She is Miss Barbara Petsel, seen above wearing the pseudo-suit presented to her by the Monte-Sano and Pruzan firm, one of America's oldest and most respected coat and suit houses.

While in New Zealand, Barbara will make an extensive tour of the country, with store appearances in all major cities promoting Woolmark fashions.

Nineteen-sixty-seven is regarded as a vintage year for wool knits. Knitted dresses are undoubtedly the hit of the season. From all the wonderful versatility of wool we have selected for these two pages a few of the many garments which will be seen in the store windows this winter.
