dress has a wider look at the
top to balance the slender hips,
and there is absolutely no
blouse, though both blouses
and boleroes were worn last
year. Notice. too, that the
waistline has gone up about an
inch and that the whole effect,
from collarbone to belt, is
shorter this year than last.
Hips Simmer
Our hips this year will be
much simmer and rounder and
they will have no fussy drap-
cries as we sometimes effected
last fall. The skirts will be
longer and will look longer be-
cause they are straighter. There
will be very little flare, and
if there is any, it will be placed
very low. Notice that all of
this will make you look taller
and simmer, but very graceful.
