The ''trouser trotter" suit for women
has arrived in the east. and has been
seen in Topeka as we'll.
It consists of slit skirt-the slit al
most to the knee-with modesty appeas-
ed by pair Of trousers underneath.
The trousers are not only made of
serge but are mannishly creased. The
only thing deceptive about them is
that they are not regular trousers. They
go only to the knees, where they are
held by elastic bands.
Nine. Bernard, a dressmaker, brought
the first "trOuser trOtter' to New York.
She said that it would soon be accept
ed by all fashionable American wo-
men because it is warm as well as dis
Greet.
Partisan women Of the fashionable
set are never vulgar" she said "They
do not believe in showing their ankles.
Moreover they are very sensible. az
this new idea of fashion shows The
trouers not only serve the pupose OF
delicacy but they shield the wearel
from the chills that the slit skirt pro-
vokes."
