both these fashions have been slow in
coming, so both may be more perma-
nent than fashions usually are.
The short, full skirt has really been
on its way ever since Poiret, year
ago last summer designed the cos
TUNES for "Le Minaret" and pushed
forth into an eager world the short,
wired tunic.
That tunic, of itself, had short ex-

Poiret was not the first to feature it

the shorter haring tunic. 1t was first
used by Cheruit, but her original tunic
was hardly more like the present one
than was the minaret. Cheruit used
an apron tunic that extended only
across the front of the skirt. Gradu-
ally it was enlarger until it went all
around, and it was widened at the bot
tom to full fare. Under it was used
a narrow foundation skirt. This foun-

skirt remained.

But there are many grumblers
against it. Why, say some of them,
