there are also signs that a revolt

The very short and very narrow skirt
is no more, but 1t is not to be sue

extreme, for street wear at least. This
is a case of self-determination for

an abomination OF the street.
The suit at the right of the two

approval of many women. 1t is made
OF a soft wool suiting with a plain
