EIGHT Society THE SHORT SKIRT. An especially amusing and original, tiling about the present fashions Ik that it the Parislenne does not buy oh of her frocks from the same cou turier she is.compelled to change her pone and her *Wtty of looking at life in general every time she changes her frock. Unless she does one or the ©th «*r of these equally difficult things, she is sure to get into a hopele? s tangle ami lose Iter mental equilibrium com pletely, for she can by no means combine a 'debutante slouch" with an 1880 frock, or take an 1830 pantft lei pose in a Turkish trouser Hklrt. Also, when we wear one of the new abort sldrth we must stand with our feet squarely under us, and not with one foot thrust out In the foreground, os has been our custom for the laid three seasons. That pose came in with tlie skirt that was slit in front and which hung in slanting folds from the front/of the girdle, and It was adopt ed to accentuate the draping of the alrt. But the short skirt, which is already fairly well launched, is not slit, and so de-nsnds a different pose. Th(s does not mean that all society women nr« wearing .short skirts, but rather that In all probability they soon wifi be; for it is well known that new inodes are introduced by the very etyle J’n rlsim nea who are not in society, and that, with few' exceptions, wiuvi they wear one month will almost sure ly be \vorn the next month by the se* lrot f* w who rub* over the social world. One hn# but to recall the story the sheath skirt, and how It got society. Although tills extreme mods required several seasons to accomplish this feat, it was finally accepted by mondalnes, who even wore it much narrower and with a much deeper slit than the original models launched by the demi-mondalnes And yet. the first of these skirts was considered so during that the Wearers were obliged to appeal to the pnlh e for protection when they paraded them before the eyes of an aatoundod world! One short skirt, which 1 saw re i ently and which attracted much atg tentinn, cleared the ground by inches in front and on tin* sides, whijo i the back a narrow, square panel touched the heels; the panel was not separate from the skirt, but wrh part of It.—Vogue. -Mrs. C.
