ShirtWaist Holds
High Favor i'm II. S.

New York, Nov. 13-(By A. P
The separate blouse and skirt is the
typical costume of the American wo-
man and girl. according to the Unit
ed Women's Wear League which re-
Gently completed survey of the
evolution of American fashions for
women.
Fostered by native conditions of
living, the shirtwaist has been the
favorite costume in this country from
the very beginning of the nations
history and now remains strongest in
popular favor. the investigators
found. While foreign style importa-
tions have come and gone, the vogue
of the blouse and skirt has never
waned permanently because Ameri-
can women have found that costume
both practical and suited to their
type-tall, slim, athletic and active.
Abroad the dress and gown, of
French and Italian origin, have held
sway and modes of living have de-
clared against the blouse and suit.
European designers every season
send to this country new fashions
for evening wear but none sends
costume which vies with the blouse
for the practical necessities of every
day American life.
Somewhere between the dignity of
formal dress and the striving for
daring that French mannequins ex-
hibit on fashion parade. according to
M. EMosesohn, executive chairman of
the league. there is place for the
costume that expresses the indepen-
dence of the American girl-this girl
you see in illustrations, on the
streets, in the shops, this tall,
straight slim active girl who walks
with a swing of her capable Shout
ders and looks about her with a di-
rect, fearless gaze
at is this type of girl who has
chung tenaciously to the separate
blouse in all it's manifestations. She
knows that it is becoming, that 1t is
the style out of reach of the dowdy
and the dumpy and she has made it
her own. Let who will wear the mar
row, 'clinging draperies (she wears
them herself in the EVENING" but she
finds the best expression OF her per-
sonality in the free and easy lines Of
q modern blouse and skirt. 1t is her
uniform but devoid of all the mono
tonous Implications Of the word"
