These facts We're demonstrated at the
semi-annual review of the chicago
Garment Manufacturers association at
which PA garments, including almost
every article in woman's dictionary OF
clothes, were displayed
Most of the gowns displayed were OF
the Hug me-tight" order and We're
gathered close about the knees ana
hips. The skirts as a rule permitted
but a sixteen-inch stride. In order to
make walking at all possible they were
slashed at the bottom, front and back,
| but the opening was so draped as to
| be invisible except when the wearer
| was in motion. While plain lines are
preserved simplicity is passing and
| everything showed more draping and
| trimming The skirts were puffed,
ruffled and draped, but always in soft
folds and held in by bands to preserve
| the lines.
Skirts and waists show a great tend
ency to divorce themselves. Tailor
suits are to be the newest fashion
| Russian blouses will be much in evil
dence, as well as others of more do
| nestle fullness. Low collars Will De
| cut a little higher. Sleeves VIII be
longer on street gowns and shorter in
All the models wore hose to match
! the costume.
