NO FAV0RITE AMONG SKIRTS
Straight, Oval, Peg-Top and Barrel
Silhouette Are All Worn by the
Well Dressed.

AS far as the straight, oval, peg-top
or barrel silhouette goes, there seems
to be no favOrite. All kinds are worn
by the well-dressed. None change the
custom to any appreciable extent, nor
do they appreciate the bizarre. Ar
tlstic simplicity for once rules in smart
modes.
Frocks made on straight lines run
to mechanically plated skirts which
flare out prettily when the wearer
walks. The peg-top, barrel and oval
skirts are formed not by intricate cuts
but by high or low loopings of the In
side folds Of straight, somewhat full
skirt. The depth of the side-draped
loops make 1t peg-top, oval or barrel,
while front and back the skirt silhou-
ette is fairly fiat.
Summer foulard dresses are softened
with folds, underdresses, skirt yokes
and sleeves of matching georgette
crepe or indestructible crepe or voile.
This gives them softer appearance
than those Of last year, when foulard
was combined with dark blue serge.
While the sleeve may be gathered into
a cuff, which makes bishop shaped,
1t is smarter to let 1t hang loose, three
quarter length, finished with hem
stitching, selvage or picot edge.
