reserved life this year, and u wisp OF chiffon
no longer does duty for a dress. Once more the
swish Of silken skirts on ballroom floors, once
more ankles are thrilling because they are almost
concealed, and once more comes the problem Of
creating a wardrobe entirely new with never
the chance of using even the tiniest leftover,
however new and fresh it may be.
No wonder Beauty is worried as she sits by
her trunk of useless treasure, with really not a
thing to wear. But there is no need for Beauty
to be so troubled, for whatever she may wear
be the skirt long or short, old or new--nothing
can dim her beauty or make her less lovely to
her Beloved.
