A Daily Fashion Talk by Florence Rose

A Daily Fashion Talk by Florence Rose
VERY recently | saw woman who
had Just returned from Paris after
a stay of almost a year. Her view
point was especially interesting, mas
much as this was her first trip to the
other side, and every thing made more
decided impression upon her vision than
it does on those who have 'crosscd the
pond" frequently. One thing was quite
scrts in, that she came back with pro
found admiration for the American wo-
man. 1t was, she said, her opinion that
the American woman not only sur
passed the French woman in looks, but
in style as well.
The very short skirts, those that hover
we'll nigh to the knee, were thing OF
the past and while the French women
were wearing longer skirt, it was still
much shorter skirt than the women
were wearing in New York. Skirts also
were fuller, some, quite so. Where the
tight skirt was worn it was usually as
foundation for drapery and again
overhung with panels. Some of these
panels were wide, while on other frocks
the panels were so narrow that they
might better be described as tabs.
On one point she agreed with all the
others who go abroad, and that was
the devotion of the French women to
black. Speaking of the black frock
reminds me of a really charming frock
which | saw the other day. Brocaded
creme was the material. The bodice was
very plain. hugging the figure quite
closely. The sleeves short. The foun
! dation skirt was moderately narrow
with an overdrape which was very low
at the right side and draped up to the
waistline at the left side. Here the
drapery was caught with a bunch of
bright red Strawberries, huggled close
together. Dangling from these was a
spray, about six inches long. of cherries
equally bright in color. The huge hat
was black and trimmed with black
paradise.
The frock shown today is of black
satin with skirt which is decidedly
full. Three rows of gathering are used
about the hips and three tucks are
made in the lower part of the skirt.
The bodice is plain, but bloused consid-
erably over the skirt. The neck line is
fow and rounded and finished with a
frill of lace. The long sleeves are also
finished with lace. The large nat is of
black satin with black ostrich laid
around around the brim.

One farmer on a direct line with
the cars from the city has made
speciality of permitting families TO
picnic in his woodlot. He charges
them fifty cents per day and this
charge gives them the privilege OF

where they can make tea or coftee'
He usually has four or five families
there every afternoon. Most OF the
folk in the country are glad to al

sorry that ] cannot read your column

Any daughters Of New York in the

not forget her. Did you know, NJ, that
you can buy the EVENING PUBLIC
