you can call the drapery in front by
that name. Bulloz, through his color
schemes and his daring, has assumed
something Of the widespread authority
in clothes that Paul Poiret held, undis-
puted. until he went to war. Bullox dips
his hands deep into history. pulls out
anything his fingers can grasp and puts
all that he finds into the most modern
of clothes. Two years ago his efforts
were not taken seriously in this coun.
try; today all the designers over here
who wish to cater to an exclusive pa.
tronage buy freely OF Bulloz.
The hallmark Of his work this season
Is that drapery across the front Of the
figure below the waist It is deftly
done. This drapery really sinks into
the surface of the skirt and drips down
into the cascades that run below the
knees at each side.
The entire dressmaking world Of
Paris was bit touched with this fash
ion. When you look at all tho new
gowns that smart women appear in, and
when you gaze At the top windows to
try to choose the frock you would like
to wear. you may notice that a COM
mon thread Of idea runs through them
all in this uplifted line in the front Of
the skirt.
This trick. as you remember, is not
new to the twentieth century. 1t be-
longs to the days out of which Goethe
created Faust. Throughout the sixteenth
and seventeenth centuries there was q
disposition to drag the clothes up In
front and tie them in looping and
