Xhis is the interesting dance frock
recently worn by a young St. Louis
matronone which attracted attention
but not ' criticism, because she knew
how to wear it. It was rose colored
frock, the most notable feature of
which was the extreme shortness of
the skirt. : -
Soft, ample folds of rose colored
taffeta, the - edges heavily corded,
were draped upwards, the bottom edire
scarcely reachinir below the knee. Be
low the silk and between the side
folds quantities of pleated net were
astacneci to the corded edge, giving
I an effect of increased width and
length of skirt but adding little to it in
actual substance.
A narrow panel down the back of
I the skirt was formed by rows of cord
pleated net, and over this were laid
festons of deep pink rose buds. The
buds also caught up the draping at the
skirt and formed a corsage trimming.
I TV, ,.1.' u.. ,L. .. "i.
wuivi:, wjr i.ii3 way, suniuwillii
resembled a basque, being snugly fit
ting and with closely laid gathers.
Across the shoulders was drawn a
fichu-like cane of the taffeta, edced
I with the pleated net, and also formed
the negligible sleeves.
London, Apr. 22. It's amazing the
way titled skirts are creeping up aris
tocratic shins. Talk about your belt
ed Earl you- really can't say much
more about his Lady Countess wife
these days, or rather nights, for her
skirts are cut so high and her waist
is cut so low there isn't much more
than a girdle for an embarrassed eye
to cling too.
For daytime frocks and costumes as
well," Her Grace, My lady, and the
Hon. Molly are Bhowing an expanse
of ankle that generously goes tue
eight inch mandate at least two inches
better, or perhaps we should say worse
Skirting a rather tender subject, there
seems to be abundant evidence these
days that vu can go further and fare
worse when it comes to a question of
British skirts. The pretty English
dairy, maid who voiced the historic
answer that "My face is my fortune"
could never have gotten by with a
like statement anent the feet. But
be that as it may, feet, and even much
feet, seem to demand even more inch
es when you start to hem about them.
At a little informal midnight sup
per dance last week Miss Nancy Cun-
Brd and Iris Tree proved ardent ad
vocates of the abbreviated skirt. Be
ing a true descendent of the Cunard
line it seems quite appropos that Miss
Nancy should flaunt a high water
frock and it was most appropriately
composed of a frothy white bodice of
tulle with cunning ' little white cap
sleeves. The skirt was two foaming
white billows of tulle girdled with a
sash of seagreen ribbon. .
Miss Tree with her blonde hair in
a bang was most fetching in a black
velvet bodice sleevelss save for should
er straps of the black. It was cut
out with rather a square. Dutch effect
in front and back and a single half
blown rose of pink broke the black'
sombreness near the left shoulder.
The bodice ended abruptly at a round
rathr short waist line and the skirt
composed of three full flounces of tulle
one pale blue,, one pale pink, and one
yellow burst butterfly like from its
black velvet chrysalis. The Tree
limbs were increased in pale blue
stockings and black velvet slippers.
There is quite a penchant for the
velvet ibodice in evening frocks and
not only are the contrasting black taf-
ADresa Combining raffeta '"jVgjj
feta with a velvet bodice of the same
shade was the sartorial hit at the
Savoy the other night. The skirt was
caught up on the left side in kirtle ef
fect with a garland of pink roses re
vealing a petticoat of white chiffon
and lace. A garland of the roses also
served in lieu of the left shoulder
strap. , " ' v
