MODES TEND TO Be
MORE CONSERVATIVE
(By Associated Press)

London, July Is - Observing
the fashion world 60 by from a
bench on Londcn's Rotten Row
one sees that the seasons modes
tend to more conservative skirts,
higher waist lines, picture hats
yard wide and pointed American
shoes. The dressmaker's intent
seems to be to cover what was
once uncovered. Ankle-length
skirts, vo1uninous sleeves, high
neck-lines and loose fitting
gowns that subordinate the con
tour of the body, seem destined
to. restore wOman's lost charm Of
mystery. ~ 80 .o.5i.I
Most frocks are of the futter-
ing, flowing order which, caught
by the gentle breeze, look ve:.-
graceful. Foulards' are. taking
the place of georgette and rcrepe
of 1aces. Hats are circled with
posies instead of being covered
with plunes. Parasols are of
fou1ard with wallpaper DESIGNS.
Or figures OF green parrots or
love birds. Long. narrow feet are
the craze of the moment. and
slender high-heeled shoes of
snake-skin are coming into vO-
que.
For evening attire backless
frocks with diamond or pearl sup-
ports are popular with some WO-
men of fashion. Many evening
gowns are of new cloth of sill
yer and gold that resembles mott
en- metal and that shimmers and
glistens brilliantly under the cleo
trio lights. Trains are inclined
to be shorter, and are usually OF
gold or silver net. The new
transparent cloaks which are be-
ing worn are trimmed with white
grey and black monkey fur. Very
little jewelry is worn; only sim
pie chain of jads or amber, or a
Chinese mandarin's collar of teak
wood beads.
