Wrapping Clothes About the Figure.
Today, so sophisticated are we that
we look upon the primitive fashion OF
draping clothes and tying them in place
as novelty Of delightful Importance
Yet, il is as old az the Stone Age. We
have decided that buttons can be aban-
doned that hooks and eyes are NUS
ances; therefore, our best artists IN
clothe, take one width Of material and
drape II about the lower part Of the liz
ure 10 form a skirt, and two narrow
widths OF material arc dfaped about
the upper part OF the figure TO foam a
bodice.
This is an extreme case of returning
to the primitive, but Callot has done II
witLgteat skill.
IN severely artistic circles there has
been a successful adaptation OF the
Javanese 'aronR pS substitute for
the modern skirt, but the majority OF
women are quite willing to leave this
form OF coStumery 10 those who arc
experts and sometimes act with con.
Spicuous defiance OF conventional
modes.
II 10 we'll for everyone to know, how
ever, that the more draped and care
less a gown appears, and the less it
seems 10 depend upon hooks and eyes
and buttons, the more does 1t iit In
with the exact fashion that this sum
mer produces
The Bodice That Ties.
Last summer one could get print

hams shown in shop windows on side
streets. The pattern Of II inundated
the continent II was copied In the
furthcrmost reaches of the country
Therefore. II holds nothing OF novelty
of the most distinguished fashions
this summer, and yet, il remains one
among highpriced gowns

into a tight slip, the net is made into
two skirt flounccs that reach TO the
knees, and the broad, medieval gal
loon outlines a surpice bodice of the
charmeuse, which wraps about the fig
ure, wrinkling at the waist, and ties at
the back with long sash ends.
II forms IT'S own short sleeves in a
primitive manner, and touch Of
