It's the product of an airplane age when women need smart evening clothes to wear outside drawing rooms. - - London Started Trend As London designers recently fav ored the tailored street-length frock Instead of the ground-sweeping lace dresses women used to wear at Ascot, so several New York shops are "giv Ing a hand" to the evening tallleur as a smart horse show costume. Some chic Manhattan ltes will at tend the gala opening wearing slim floor-length skirts and fitted jackets of dark wool, crepe or velvet accom panied by short or long-sleeved blouses of lame or chiffon. Others will choose a slim wine, dark green or purple evening frock and suave Jacket.

The smartest women will wrap their frocks in fitted floor-length evening coats of rich colored velvet or wool and many a chic New Yorker will carry an evening muff.
