petticoats need not be worn and the
waist and hip lines should not
be destroyed by a lot of I'M
necessary material These bloom
ers fit closely to the figure
and are fulled slightly above the knee
not too much, mind-and have few
rows of lace put on without very much
surplus, just sufficient to give the
dainty and feminine touch to a gar
ment which is not essentially attrac-
tive.
"All the models in his place wore
these boomers at first with the sheath
skirts Now silk tights or fieshings
are worn if required, as many women
who wear the sheaths prefer them,
just as many prefer to spoil their
shape with the intrusion of the old
style petticoat or drop, which should
never be worn with them.
Producing the Soft Fall.
"The soft fall about the feet which
is so much admired by the aesthetical-
ly inclined is produced by various de-
vices, usually small shot which are
sewed to a band of tape, which in turn
is fastened to the edge of the skirt OF
| a few inches from the edge, as pre-
| ferred. PaQuin used a rubber band al
| the knee which went around the skirt
and drew it in to give the required eff
feet when walking, and some of the
sheath skirts have two rubber loops
| through which the foot passes, but
this style, although it gives the sheath
walk all right, is very trying to an &C
tive minded woman, as she must never
forget them, and while she may no
-, doc
mind the discomfort.
Il remember one of my first view
of the new sheath skirt was at tn,
Paquin establishment, and model
one of those lovely girls they hav'
there-began joking and laughing ant
insisted that she could step just a
far in a sheath skirt as in other kind
She tried it and tore the costume al
to pieces along the sides. After tina
the sheath walk was adopted, which

Another buyer thought there ha
been unnecessary fuss over the sheat
skirt.
Puritanical Ideas Criticised.
THE very people who will sit on
beach and watch the short skirte
swimmers, standing, sitting and rul
| ming about, displaying lines and curve
with generous abandon, are the yer
people who have these Puritanical GU
bursts at the mere idea of showing tn
, same amount of figure on the stree
Why is it?" she asked.

Invention of Paquin.

Invention OF Paqufn.
when Paquin died." she explains,
he told his wife on his deathbed that
the sheath skirt, already known in the
trade as the Paquin skirt, would be
popular, and Paquin made few mis-
takes. But the sheath skirt of which
he spoke did not have the latest i'm
provement-if you call it that 1t was
simply a sheath, not a directoire
sheath, and was not slit.
The first skirts made at his estab-
lishment had an unusual effect in the
front, just slight looseness of the
material below the waist, known to-
day as the Paquin cut The success
of the sheath, then as now, depended
on its clinging to the figure, showing
every line and curve, and ending at
| the feet with a fad of drapery suggest
ed by the sculptured draperies of the
Greek statues If you note carefully
made sheath skirt turned out at the
PaQuin establishment, or at any other
of the Partisan houses, you will easily
trace the Hellenic resemblance, and in
fact, in some places the sheath is
known as the Ionian skirt on this &C
count.
ITO make the sheath a success
great attention must be given to the
undergarments. Paquin designed fol
it a new style of boomers, SO thai

drawing room of the auto, not of the
business or the professional world.
"A few years ago business and pro-
fessional women saw in the adoption
of the tailor mades, the short walking
skirt and various other unitarian
modes a disappearance of the lines OF
demarcation between classes To-day
they are looking with dismay at the
chasm that is opening.
Take the sheath skirt as example.
A working woman must eliminate that
from her wardrobe. She could not ap-
pear in court, at her business desk in
it, not only because it would be
physically impossible for her to do her
work so swathed, but also because 1t
| would bring into business and profess
sional life the very feminine element
she is trying to keep away.
/ sHThe sheath skirt woman is opposed
| body and soul to her sex's freedom
! The gowning of to-day is a challenge.
| Use all the arguments you have at
your disposal, one woman says to her
| sister of the other world, and we will
destroy them with the waving of a
scarf and the curve of a figure in a
clinging gown"
An expert on woman's dress who
has given 81 years of his life to its
study poohpoohs the idea that there Is
any such psychology in dress
Nothing of the kind he says, firm

occult explanations for such obvious
