Extremely clever is the way in which
the evening gowns ARE made with the
close fitting embroidered tunic and the
skirt with sufficient fulness to be not
only graceful but to look far wider than
the skirts of last winter.
1t must be conceded that the fashion
is far more becoming with the long train
than with the short skirt, and in fact the
model is an exceptionally good one for a
dinner or a ball own. Small, tight fit
