TIE tango skirt turned out to be a cross
between the hobble and the slit skirt. AS
shown yesterday afternoon at the Ritz
Carlton by Nine. Henri Joire sister-in-
law of the great Paquin, the new skirt
was seen to combine the slender silhou-
cite of the hobble with the freedom of
the slit.
Some of the models were tied at the
knees after the manner of our old enemy;
others simply hung in long straight lines
which, seen from the front promised no
freedom OF motion, but revealed at the
sides Sits as high as the knee, always
filled in with ruffies or pleatlngs OF the
material or OF chiffon.

Nine. Joire.
