very prominent reality-there yet remains
the fact that the genuine princess dress,
the garment in one from the neck to the
hem of the skirt, such as was worn some
years ago, is seen scarcely at all or
course, a cut of this severity does demand
an exquisite figure to do 1t justice. but as
there are any number of women who can
lay claim to these requirements, it is sur
prise that so few of these princess gowns
are attempted l think. however, the rea-
son is not hard to find-the dressmakers
dodge them and the tailors dodge them, and
for the obvious reason that the all-in-one
frock is infinitely more difficult to carry
through with entire success than the prin
cess models of the moment. which divide
themselves into two garments, consisting
of princess skirt and upper bodice. And.
as 1t is an Ill wind which blows no good,
we have discovered in this modified style a
most practical and economical device. In
deed, a princess skirt costume turns out
to be as convenient and handy thing as
we considered the skirt and blouse at its
height, before we became so tired of 1t.
There Is one essential of the princess that
Is most important, though frequently over
looked-that of not insisting upon the
bloused part overhanging slightly the skirt
edge. When the princess skirt and blouse
bodice were first ventured the edges of the
skirt always came up hard against the
blouse of lace or chiffon that formed the
upper part and the resulting effect was
not smart.
The newer and far prettier idea is for
the upper part of the blouse to be formed
on the plan of tailored boiero and not a
thing that reaches down to the waist. but
that just overhangs the skirts edge. which
necessarily need not have an undermining.
This chemisette affair fits into the waist
under the skirt OF course, an underslip
reaching to the waist does make for
firmer foundation, but the bulkiness Is not
desirable, and little care Will obviate all
fear of the blouse riding up and missing
connections. And when we come to regard
fbo r}rnn fr1r a n al
viewpoint it holds its own beautifully.
