The Lehi sun. [volume] (Lehi, Utah) 1913-1949, 1921-11-10

not changed so materially that the
change Is quick to catch the eye. They
seem TO be about the same. although
they are really longer than those ex-
IRENE knee-iength ones Of the sum-
mer. II behooves us to stop and think,
however, that certain members OF the
community attempted these ultra
short AFFAIRS. and that most Of the
suit skirts, In particular, remained a
distance of from ten to twelve inches
from the floor. And that is what
they are today-preferably ten. but
rising to twelve where the figure Is
tail and slim enough to demand that
concession to Its own proportions.
There Is the sport suit, for which
America and Americans have become
80 famous; there is the medium suit
for every occasion, and there is the
dressy suit which, this season. has
dissolved itself into the costume dress.
But each IL as popular and as neces-
sary as the other In It's own way, and
each one OF them is destined to hold
place In the seasons fashions.
Among the tailored suits there are
many with coats that are very long.
That Is, they may safely be called
three-quarter length, for there is only
fraction Of n skirt left showing be-
meath the ending Of the coat. Then,
these suits are cut In such a manner
that they can keep the straight, long
lines for any figure. They are totally
without fullness. to be sure, but they
have a miraculous way Of keeping
stalght In spite of everything. Every.
thing about them Is seemingly tightly
fitted. The sleeves are, indeed, skin
tight and the armholes are rounded
and fitted to a nicely. Sometimes
there is a belt set at low waistllne
and tied into place. the exact placing
Of the waistlIne being in accordance
with the Individual proportions of the
figure. Then. some Of these three
quarter tailored coats are silt at the
sides from the bottom, so that the ends
have trife Of give" to them. not be
Ing keyed to the line Of the figure 80
unrelentingly. A tailored suit Of this
variety was made with bindings OF Its
own material. which material was
broadcloth. by the way. and these
were cut almost an inch In width
These were laid on as fatty as could
be around every conceivable edge
and stitched closely on either side
The color Of the suit was a dusty
taupe and the stitched edgings made
a good-looking finish.
Have Low-cut Reverb
Most OF these strictly tailored suits
have low-cut revers. so that the clos
ings Of the coat come just above the
waistllnes. Then, this opening leaves
room for the whltest and daintiest OF
French blouses. the latter being the
touch without which the suit remains
as nothing worthy Of notice.
Suits with more or less OF trimming
come 10 us from the French designers,
and. with a certain type OF woman.
are generally appreciated and worn In
this country. Most Of these, this sea.
son, are made with the longer waists
and with slightly bloused effects at
the waistllnes. Then the embroidery
Is used for n wide or q narrow band
around the bottom Of the peplum. for
the cuffs, for the collar. and some
times for band to run along the line
where the closing OF the coat Is effect
ed. One OF these from Paris was
made I'm that darkest OF brown shades,
which the French are pushing this
season. II was then trimmed with
masses OF silk embroidery In a slight
~ lighter shade Of the same color. and
the trimming was concentrated over
the hips In large triangular sections
grouped OF smaller triangular figures
This was all the trimming there was
about the suit. for the cuffs Of the
rather loose sleeves were left plain
as was also the collar. which but.
