problem which the sA-gar ricans discuss
Is whether the F-Women were Al
ways as fat ~ they are this summer.
or whether the short skirt and the
girdle corset merely expose and &C.
cent that which existed. One thing 10
true: II the American women follow
the Paris silhouette. there will be Q
loss Of fortune to those who give
exercises, prescribe food and make
corsets for reducing.
There has never been such an inter.
esting fight, both spoken and carried
on In silence. between the French and
the Americans as now in regard to
skirt lengths, short sleeves and ro-
tundity. Is 1t an indication of more
Independence on the part OF the
Americans?
The women here. those who make q
business Of clothes, have simply re-.
fused to adopt the ruling Paris FASH
ions as they stand. The most cock
sure Of them say they glory in their
pointed shoes, moderate heels, ankle
skirts and supple, slim. reed-like fig-
ures. or course, the real test will
come when the dressmakers show
their new clothes and the buyers have
to decide.
Once upon a time we would havo
tortured our figures and made our.
selves grotesQue to copy the Paris-
ienne as we saw her here. Today we
say, "Oh, think we are rather smart
looking as we are, don't you think?~
Significant isn't it?

French Trimming.

A SIMPLE little frock of black crepe
de chine Is made distinctive by
stitchings on the skirt and blouse Of
threads Of gold. This same frock is
finished with a rolling collar of nat
tier blue silk and the fullness of the
side of the skirts is held in Just be-
low the knees by heavy tassels of
gold and black beads.
Pearl bead embroidery is in high
favor in France. Gray and black
pearls are embroidered on the lace
that trims smart evening gown Of
black chiffon over white satin. and a
charming little day dress Of old blue
crepe de chine has insets on the
sleeves and in the middle of the
blouse made Of black pearl beads en-
broidered on white background.
One can hardly call fringe trim
ming any more in France. For in
more than one dress seen recently
the fringe was the dress. One stun
ming evening gown worn by a smart-S
ly dressed Frenchwoman consisted
really OF three tiers Of jet fringe
one extending from the moderately
low neck line to line high on the
right hip and lower on the left from
beneath this comes another row of
fringe. extending from beneath this
row to a place below the knees and
below this a row Of the fringe going
to the edge of the skirt.
Ostrich feathers are made into all
sorts Of interesting trimming devices.
1t is quite taken for granted that
ostrich should be a dress trimming
quite as much or more than hat
trimming. and the French have been
clever in devising ways -
make II attractive

TRIM NED

voluminous white satin cape and a
small hat of white chiffon touched
with small flowers.
But, dropping from the nobility to
the people, those who crowded to see
and to be seen, there were astonish-
ing frocks, and astonishing" Is
mild word. The French women open
ly laughed at the long skirts of the
Americans. and we were not quite
sure whether. to laugh in retort at
their absurdly short ones or feel en-
barrassed and self-conscious. The
Americans had the satisfaction Of
feeling that, fashion or no fashion,
no one could laugh or persuade them
into wearing their skirts to the bend
Of their knees or omitting their
corsets.
There is no doubt that the new ar
rivals from America stared to the ex-
tent Of their vision at the figures that
were presented. Some Of them were
unbelievable. There were a few bare
legs and hundreds Of transparent
stockings in black. gray. beige and
white. The small shoes made the feet
look as though some Jack the Ripper
had gone through the crowd cutting
of the toes with an AK. often these
blunt -toed slippers were merely SAN
dals laced around the legs in the
Roman manner. with leather thongs
or ribbon.
There Is certainly some perversity
in @ person who can call the Paris
silhouette good. A rather loosely tied
bag with string in the middle Is a
fair description Of 1t. The absorbing
