BY CLAUDETTE Chivalrous plaits . . . they might well to termed, ns they como to the aid of Milady in fashion dis tress, and stylists ns well. You must know, of course, that skirts arc gradually descending, al most to ankle length, and the pre vailing silhouette modo, with smooth, satlny-llntshcd materials In high favor, must have relief. Women, style or no style, simply will not tolerate those tricky and bothersome "hobble" skirts as they once did, and so plaits are being employed nt the hem line to assure walking freedom. They also lend n trim appearance to the otherwise molded tallleur. Tlic gracefully draped flared col lar Is something decidedly new and flattering in the treatment of neck lines. This tailored frock requires 4'i yards of matcrlnl with one yard for the collar. Patterns can be obtained In standard sizes from 14 to 42. To oblnln n pnttcrn of this gar ment, with instructions for making, send 20 cents, coin if possible, to Olaudcttc, 100 North Broadway, Los Angeles, Cal, Don't forget to state your size.
