then she must remain at home and.
like Cinderella. await the arrival of
fairy godmother with a pumpkin coach
or a modern Prince Charming in the
shape of a multi-millionaire stock
broker.
OF course the beauty of these NOUS
selines and nets count for something,
although it must be admitted that the
average woman would cheerfully dance
or dine in gunny sacking, were that
material fashionable, but the principal
reason for their popularity is due to the
fact that they lend themselves so per-
fectly to the present craze for the
straight, limp skirts which have not a
particle of trimming and the bodices
draped with surplice folds and bias
bands of self-fabric. These gowns
look so simple that they are de-

dressmaker who does not understand
the Importance of preserving unbroken
lines over a perfectly cut and fitted
slip, so that the woman who cannot
patronize an expert modiste would bet
ter wait for the arrival of the more
easily made trimmed skirts and the

closely fitting, pointed bodices which,
it is rumored. are to succeed the pre-
sent styles.
Certainly there are evidences of the
early Victorian or 1850 fashions in
some of the gowns of rich brocade,
thick, corded silk and heavy moire,
which have skirts gathered into a
waist band and bodices with long
darts, rounded necks and puffed short
sleeves. But it is past belief that the
twentieth century woman will ever
consent to adopt a costume which will
make her hips look like shelves, her
waist look like an hour glass and her
shoulders abnormally narrow. That Is
precisely the appearance presented by
the models who pose in costly gowns
OF the Victorian period-dresses which,
being made over paper cambria, rough
ly turned in at the waistband, harrow
Los Angeles herald., 1910-04-10

the eyes of every silk-lined tailormade
modern maiden who chances to view
one of them.
In the decollete gowns made with
short skirts, which have lately been
brought out by the leading style max
ers of Paris, there is nothing sug-
gestive of the Victorian modes, for the
hips have a sheathed appearance-so
far as it is possible to produce 1t with
transparent materials-and they are
absolutely plain unless the elaborately
embroidered borderings, ruched with
marabout or maline, can be termed
garnishings. A unique feature Of some
Of these costumes Is the sleeves which
are entirely OF the embroidered por-
ton of the material and close-fitting
sometimes extending halfway to the
elbows, again covering them and not
infrequently reaching to the wrists.
