Newest Evening Frocks
Made Without Backs

London's smart women have always
worn very decollete gowns, but this
year they have exceIled all previous
records. The newest evening frocks
are practically without backs. so mar
row is the line of bodice seen at each
side.
A favorite style is a deep V-shaped
opening, the point of the V not fin
ishing till 1t reaches the waist. An
other style is to have the cOrsage cut
U-shaped. This also displays a mini
mum of bodice and a maximum of
back.
With these gowns the decolletage
in front is proportionately low. and
in many cases not a vestige of sleeve
is to be seen. AS gloves are very
often discarded the result is a de-
cidedly undressed appearance, and
when you have also a skirt of tight
and fiimsy material with a satin un-
derskirt some six of eight inches
shorter than the chiffon Overdress the
effect is of audacity.
A frock worn by a duchess at a
reception lately was of blue char
meuse with a tunic of mousseline in
a paler shade. The decolletage edged
with a dark fur was cut in a novel
way.
The square line across the front and
back was continued over the arms and
slanting down into a deep point formed
the upper parts of the sleeve, the under
parts being formed Of blue mOusseltne.
The shoulders and the greater part of
the arms were thus left bare.
