Sir, Last month was the worst for sales of summer clothing in two years. Could this have anything to do with the fact that by July most summer clothing has been removed from shelves and shops are displaying winter wear which most of us, still hoping for a late summer, have no inclination to purchase? People taking holidays abroad in late summer need summer clothing which means they have to buy in May or June.
Yours faithfully,
