the change has come, but not exactly
the one expected
For instead of returning 10 the fem
mime and modest petticoat the ultra
fashionable dame has discarded even
that which she had. She wears her
gown OF flmy white over a single
undergarment of fesh-colored chiffon.
The effect as can be imagined, is
somewhat startling.
Flesh-colored tights. hesh-colored
under-chiffons, flesh-colored stockings.
even flesh-colored silk Jerseys to wear

wardrobe of the French woman OF
fashion just now. To suggest as near
ly as permissible the costume OF
Mother Eve during her stay in the
Garden OF Eden seems TO be the aim
OF the Paris elegante. Dare we as
much?
Perhaps the most extreme example
of this curious paucity of apparel is
found in the costumes OF Grecian eff
feet. Thus a woman preparing for a
ball Will don a single garment OF Lib
erty material, semttransparent. over
tights OF fesh-color. This under dress
Is comparatively short. just touching
the floor. Over this she will wind
scarf of gauze six yards long, which
binds the figure tightly from bust to
ankles. one long end trailing at the
side or back, forming the train. Some.
times one arm and shoulder is left
quite bare. the drapery crossing
loosely over the other arm. Her hair
will be done in a Grecian couture.
On her feet. worn over stockings of
flesh-colored silk. will be pointed
