Jeepers peepers!

Kookie cut-outs, clothes with holes - that's the big news for sun-tanning, switched on dollies. We got Pattie Boyd to prove our theory that this year it's the Bit Of Dress That Isn't There that's making the greatest impact!

Cliff Bennett and
Pattie Boyd start out
on a tour of London
Town. She shows off a
swinging shift with a
wide midriff filled in
with holed-up fishnet.
By Angela Cash, £7
19s. 6d. The gingham
hat is by Edward
Mann, (29s. 11d.) The
sun-specs have a built
in transistor. (At D.
H. Evans, Oxford St.,
London, W.1., 7gns.)
At St. James's the
sentry guard didn't
even blink as
Pattie and Cliff
gave him the once-
over. Pattie's
"jump" suit, in
white cotton, has a
wide peekaboo
fishnet midriff.
The matching hat
has a mesh crown.
(By Mary Quant's
Ginger Group,
8gns.)
Outside
Buckingham
Palace, Pattie's
bare look for
the beach is a
razzle dazzle
black and white
towelling shift
with a cut-out
wide enough to
display a
captivating
square of sun-
tanned midriff.
(By Angela
Cash, 4gns.)
Trafalgar Square
is a must for tourists.
Armed with a bag of
peanuts,Cliff and
Pattie feed the
pigeons. Pattie's
choice is a denim
dress with a bold,
kookie cut-out in the
front. It's a Sambo
Dollyrocker, £3 19s.
6d. The denim
doughboy has a daisy
pinned to the brim.
(By Edward Mann,
39s. 11d.)
Whitehall - and for
once Pattie and Cliff
cause more of a stir
than the immaculate
guards. Pattie's dress
has a discreet high
neckline in front and a
neat square, like a TV
screen, cut out of the
back. In a grass green
linen weave, it's by
Saville Sports (4 1/2
gns.) The hat with a
Courreges look is in a
fine white straw edged
with black. (By
Edward Mann, 79s.
11d.)
The Courreges type
boots were Pattie's own
- in white leather with
cut-out fronts. (From
Anello and Davide,
Ltd., £8 10s.), and if

My Week By Mo

...TUESDAY
      Ran all the way up six flights of stairs this morning. Thought it might help me to loose some weight. All that happened was, that it left me puffed out for over half an hour. I just panted like an old steam engine.
      A load of new fashions came in tody for our fashion page. There were those dresses with the mesh middles and the ones with the holes in the back. They were great.
      While no-one was looking I tried the lot on. I decided to treat myself to the black one with the mesh middle and sleeves - I shoved everything back into the cupboard just before the Ed came in!
      Good job I did cos she gave me a load of jobs to do, including fixing it up for Cliff Bennett and Pattie Boyd to be photographed.
      I was so curious to see what the girl was like who had captured George Beatle, that when Pattie and Cliff arrived in the Ed's room, I found an excuse to wander in there - I'd met Cliff before, so I'm afraid he was ignored while I looked at Pattie.
      She was very quiet and didn't say much, but she had a little girl quality about her that was very cute. I liked her at once, and now I can see why she and George are so well suited. They are both great people.
