POiret Says Sap Is Extracted
From Period STYLES

| DOIRET never really cared for the
revival Of the dress periods Of the
French kings, and now he says that
tho designers have extracted all the
sap from them and every ono should
be a-wearied Of their repetition.
He feels. as he did in the spring. that
we shall return to the untrammeled
yet modest costumes of the Greeks for
our autumn inspiration and that such
movement will be in accord with our
craving for the natural figure He
points to the popularity Of the moyen
age basque. which began as a fitted
mid Victorian garment and has been
transformed into youthful affair of
straight lines.
He points to the increasing vogue
among we'll dressed women to wear
shoes that are almost heelless and the
evident determination not to pull in the
waist, no matter who says 1t must be
DONE He draws attention to the eager
ness with which the wide hip drapery
was accepted. and later the accordion
plated fiounce at the bottom Of the
skirt and now the incoming all over
plated skirt with Its straight line from
waist to ankles
He feels that our next psychological
turn is to the Greek. When he cos
TUNED the play Of Pierre Louys, "Apro-
dite" he felt assured that the straight
plated skirts introduced there with
their graceful tunics would undoubt-
eddy be the fashion for modern women
later in the season.
Callott. who plays along with Poiret
much Of the time. although she Is more
fashionable" and caters more to the
multitude than he does. also took up
the Greek idea and produced several
gowns that were distinct copies, mod
ernized, Of the "Aprodite" costumes. 1t
is from this play and from Poirets
frooks for It that We get our plated
skirts Of the moment.
One notices that the world usually
comes around to the thing that the

ploits.
