STYLE NOW IMPORTANT
SEASONS MODES MAY De SAID
TO DEMAND NEW FIGURE.
Point to Remember 10 That the New
Corset Must Be Worn With In
teIIigenee-Mineins Step 10
No Longer In Order.

It does not take exceptional insight
to see that the clothes of this win
ter demand q new figure. The curved
body that wore the graceful folds Of
clinging drapery that formed our
frocks a couple of years ago does not
wear to advantage the short-skirted.
tight-waisted. fiaring frock of today.
No. with the requirement of our new
supply Of frocks we must acquire a
new figure.
Now the new corset Is. of course, es-
sential to the good fit of the new
frock. But the new corset is not
everything. 1t helps to mold the fig.
ure. it gives the right proportion to
the hips, It emphasizes the slimness
Of the waist. But the new corset
must be worn with intelligence. The
debutante-slouch figure must be dis
carded. with all its attributes. And to
wear the new corset properly the fig
ure must first be Strengthened out Q
bit.
The new frocks do not demand the
old sort of uprightness that came into
fashion just about the time that the
Gibson girl arrived. But they do de-
mand well-held shoulders. a rather
straight back and such carriage that
an easy. swinging gait is possible.
For a mincing step with our wide
skirts would be decidedly out of place,
according to our modern notions. This
shows how far we have really ad.
vanced. in our sartorial progress. from
the days Of 1860. when full. swinging
skirts were properly accompanied by
short, mincing steps. No; we don't
like to mince. When hobble skirts
demand a shortened gait we. hating
ly and after many accidents. fall into
1t. But as soon as wide skirts return.
our stride lengthens.
We like to minimize the effects Of
the world.war on fashions. We see q
few gilt buttons. little braiding and
many hats modelled on different mill
tary caps. but on the whole we say
that the war has had little direct
result on fashions. Yet perhaps It is
the war that has actually brought this
new figure into being. Full. short
skirts were created in the minds of
the Paris dressmakers before war was
declared-but not before the feeling
