one over night case or sturdy cardboard box choose crush resistant clothes which can be used for a variety of occasions the subject of travel clothes of course is tremendous and i plan to write about it soon but in the meantime id like to hejr aboit the kind of styles youve found to be practical the idea in packing is to keep everything just as clean and un- wrinklcdas if it had just come from your closet its easy put shoes in special bags so they wont get your other clothes dirty if you dont have shoe bag- try us ing your husbands old socks i luggage leaves which you can make yourself of plastic or pellon are another great help in avoiding wrinkles especially these new look days- -they- -serve- to separ ate into layers the various types of garments in your suitcase the result is an efficient- filing system right iri your own travel bag some people like to leave dresses om hangers and pack them right in the bags as they arc sent from the dry cleaner then spillables and breakables among your drugs and cosmetics can cause real damage if they are not put in pliofilm bags or other leakproof containers incidentally youll find it convenient to place toilet articles in a plastic kit
