Though the waist line is less yer.

and more inclined to assume the con.

Is still to be seen. For reception and
dancing gowns 1t is graceful. and the
soft outline II gives to the figure Is
delightfully."- picturesque. But for the
street all this is out OF place: 1t gives
the wearer silhouette that is I'M
