One of the charactersties about the sports costumes which are being designed for the winter sports season in Switzer
and is the growing tendency to replace the skirt with close-fitting breeches. The suits destined for wear when skating or indulging in other fortas of snow and ice sports, arc, almost without exception, made with trousers instead of skirts, although very often this other garment is added as a separate piece that can be donned if the purchaser feels nervous about appearing without it, or has more scruples on the matter. Naturally, this skirt is knee length or a shade below so as just to cover up the breeches without adding undue encumbrance to the wear er, and most of those I have seen teave been quite plain in cut for the same res son. At times, the place of the skirt as medium, is filled by **covering up a straight, plain-tting coat, which, like the skirt, of course, reaches po lower than
