IN infinite VARIETY
NO FIXED RULE FOR THE SKIRTS
NOW WORN.
II the Effect ls Tapering the Wearsr
May Be Sure She Has the FASH
lonabIe Touch-Charming
Evening Model.

One almost forgets the novelty Of
the new blouses in the infinite variety
that is shown In the skirts. There is
no rule to order them by, beyond that
they must be Of small circumference
at the feet. Yards of material may be
Incorporated above, but the effect
must be tapering one, whether start
ed from below the hips or below the
knee.
AS there L. q decided tendency to-
ward pannier-like bouffancy under
the hips, the tapering will be noticed
most often from the knees down. The
vogue for the short outstanding tunic
skirt, known in French as lie minaret,
provides an attractive medium for the
attainment of the approved silhouette.
It Is seen in various forms. Sometimes
there are two, and even three, such
n0unces, but always of transparent
fabric They are thinly wired around
the lower edge and trimmed with bead
fringes, chiffon flowers or fur.
A charming evening model along
these lines is shown in the accom-
panying illustration. Rose petal pink
chiffon is used for the corsage and
minaret tunic. The round line Of the
hitter is broken in front by the lifted
Dlait in the material. Besides being
wired, the lower edge is bound with
dark fur. Fur is again used as q Dor
der on the arm sides. There are no
