HRH Prince Charles demonstrates how to utilize an untucked scarf to fill a jacket opening when there's no necktie. A length of cashmere keeps the chest warm and the centers the viewers eye on the wearers face.
Most readers will want to use this technique with an odd jacket rather than a Chitrali Cloak from the Pakistani tribal areas. Said cloak costs but £30 ($45), which is unusually good value for twelve yards of hand loomed lambs wool, however the low cost is no doubt related to the 340 mile trip from Islamabad thats required to reach the town where they are made. Fortunately the royal publicity means we can probably expect to find the garments in the J. Peterman catalog next season.
Still, for now tweed jackets are considerably simpler to obtain. Cashmere scarves may be found at the same sources.
