Hostilities are being waged between the moderately short skirt advocated by American designers and the excessively abbreviated frocks insisted upon by the French couturiers, writes a prominent creator of fashions. The short skirt reaching barely below the knees made its appearance in Paris last year and many stories came across to us concerning the display of silken hosiery observed at the leading French hotels where the fashionable Parisiennes gather for luncheon, tea and evening parties. This fashion of displaying French calves with a frankness that outfranked even the French was not confined to bizarre extremists, but was adopted by the upper classes, the descendants of the old regime, who still constitute the aristocracy of France that dwells ln the neigborhood of St. Germain. When the races at Auteullle and Long Champs corroborated the evidence that the short skirt was an established fact, American designers hesitated nnd waited to hear the death knell of this fashion vibrate across the Atlantic. Instead of dying young, it continued to grow in favor. The short skirt on this side of the ocean, which enme into prominence several years ago, when a certain theatrical manager dressed his far famed skirts beauty chorus ln the short-lonreaching eight or ten inches from the floor, had been carried to such vulgar excess by any women lacking both That Is the aesthetic argument against the short skirt. Into the moral question I enter not. The American woman of good taste is capable of Judging that for herself. You all know how women the many actually short skirt has brought to notice.

The selection of articles ln the set depends upon the character of the fnr or the fur fabric used and the Individual taste of the vveartr, and fur fabrics have made an exercise of Individual tiste much less difficult than It used to be, for the difficulties ln sewing and matching furs are eliminated where fur fabrics are used. Matched sets will Interest the woman who likes garments that are out of the ordinary and that will reflect her own taste, as well as the thrifty ones who wish to make over garments that have outlasted the styles ln which they g were made. The handsome and set shown above, whose deep cuffs help to make it so presents no difficulties that the aver age needlewoman will fear to face, even If a fur Is used for It In a fur fabric It is easy sailing for the home dressmaker.

But there are articles enough to fill a book, so only the most attractive and practical can be selected for the brief space allotted the picture In a newspaper article and a series of pictures la needed to present examples of the many different sorts of things' made of ribbons. There are so many kinds of bags that this one theme Is InexNext In Importance come haustible. ribbons In lingerie, both for making and, adorning garments, then hair bows and then household articles, pillows, picture frames, bf xes and things of that kind. But these divisions do not include everything useful and ornamental made of ribbon. In the picture above, two camisoles, a hreakfast cap, and a lingerie bow are shown, with a carriage band nd a celluloid rattle held by a narrow shirred ribbon, for the baby. The camisoles are among the simplest of those displayed, in many of which lace plays a role as Important as ribbon. . A very wide ribbon ln light weight and colored taffeta Is used for the camisole shown at the left of the group. One must take a length equal to one and a fourth times the bust measure for making this model, finishing one edge with an Insertion and edging of lace and the other with a casing for a fiat elastic band. The Inwtiop aD1 edging are joined by a narrow bending which carries a length of baby ribbon that serves to gather up the top of the camisole and adjust It to the figure. The shoulder strap are simply lengths of narrow taffeta or satin ribbon ; usually satin is used for these. In the camisole at the right a wide patln ribbon Is edged with a broad band of fine white net doubled "and sewed to the ribbon at one edge. A row of stitching In the net, near the top edge, forms a casing which carries a very narrow satin ribbon that serves) to draw the camisole up and ties In a flat sow with two long ends at the front. These ends terminate in little bows. The same narrow ribbon serves for shoulder straps with small bows' on the shoulders. Satin ribbon laid in single boxj plaits, forms the breakfast cap pictured. Plain ribbon Is sewed to the plaiting along one edge and gathered) at the center to form the crown, where a little bow Is posed, tittle ribbon flowers set close together make a pretty finish and satin ribbon forms the long bridle that hangs from the sides of the cap. Narrow satin ribboa Is used for making the lingerie bow and Is shirred over flat emstlc for the baby carriage band. To Join the rattle to the little wrist band that holds it, it Is merely shirred. |
