Evening dresses are longer, perhaps, than any other muxlels, and, although there are far more trains to be seen about, not all models, by any means, have trains attached
to them
It is not so much the length of the skirt as the uneven length of the skirt that is perturbing designers just at present, especial ly when it is a question of the walking skirt. Several of them have given a straight cut to one half of the skirt and an un- even cut to the other, al, in consequence, unless this foat is carries out by a clover caster, and the skirt is worn by a clever wo

successful skirts of this are those which look even but prove to be uneven when you pick them up asl find that they have a distinct curved line like an umbrella-shaped skirt
Another difficulty is that of afforling width to skirts without taking away in any degree from their slimncas of line. This is managed by introducing broad bax-pleats down the front
of the skirt and allowing the sides and back to remain plain. A great
deal, also, is achieved with the assistanco of godets and darts cleverly inserted so that suficient fulness is added to the skirt to give it a certain "swing" and yet the straight line remains Tuamarred. The renow ed interest in pleats this season is also helpful when it is a question of fashioning a skirt which shall be full and slim at the same time. A plain back and front and panels of
Darrow plenta at the sides is about one the best ideas; a well-cut model on those lines will look becoming to most figures and allow of a maximum of movement as
well.

As a matter of fact," no oversight on the port of their wearer is ever responsible for the look of unevenness about modern clothes;
it is just the cut of them. Some of the skirts being worn now, for instance, are cut straight in front and rounded at the hem at the back, so that the skirt dips. Others are cut so that they dip at one side and straggle off till they nearly touch cut short at the ground. Others aro one side and reveal a port of drop petticant beneath.
