Summary

NoS synopsis: "These are advance glimpses of the new fur models. This year the trend is towards lighter colour combinations, particularly with white." Women model very glamorous fur coats in a hotel setting. They walk up and down a small staircase and across a flowered carpet. High angle of a woman in a white fur posing and looking up at the camera. Woman in a striped fur poses. "This wrap is made of Manchurian fur - It’s really two-in-one, for the reverse side is very becoming for street and sports wear." Woman models fur then quickly takes it off, reverses it and puts it back on, turning for the camera. Closer shot of woman in reversed coat. "Leopard skin - but don’t visit the Zoo in it - someone may recognise a long-lost brother." Leopard skin coat. It has a dark fur trim and muff. Closer view of the coat which has a matching hat. Another mode is shown. Little cropped white cape with turned up collar.
