I was interesting to listen to the weird- rounding catches of conversation in this motley throng, and it was no less interesting to note the 'hational expression in each and every one of the n in the master of their dressing. All the women had certainly hought their hats and dresses in Paris, but all had added a chamcteristic note or put them on in such a way that carb one was distinctive.
The surprise which designers waited for sunshine and the Grand Prix to laanch ou mankind was no less than a return to 1820 styles. True, full skirts and tight-fitting bodices that first saw the light of day way back in the early part of the nineteenta sentury have been in vogue for a year cri more, and Joanne Lanvin, in particular, has confined herself almost entirely to the crea ing of period frocks of this type but to-day Longchamp was chosen as the background not only for instensified frocks of the 1830 type, but also of poke bonnets, mittens, granny shawla, check, taffelas and all the other details that used to be the height of fashion sixty years or so ago when Queen Victoria was the young and Lautiful soveriegu historians should have 8 believe she was. To see a smiling faced Parisenne walking round the grounds at Longchamp attired in a taffetas frock with a fully panniered skirt trimmed with arabesques of ruching, a tight little bodice pointed in front and covered up with a granny sawl, tiny puff sleeves, mittens, a. poke honnet trimmed with similar rubings to those on the skirt, and carrying alot a niniscule parasol in silk and lace-to see tbis apparition and not see crowds follow. ing up behind our groups of people staring: at it is sufficiently indicative of the extent to which 1830 fashions have byeome 1923 fasbions. As well as frocks of this type in tafetas, there were also others in organdie, and I noticed even one dainty modelcarried out in fioral cropo Georgette, the skirt of which was a mass of tiny gathered tonnees reaching from the hem to the wiist and the bodice quite plain al finished w tle aj granny shawl knotted in Tront, and "the" sleeves non existant.
Organdia profited by the first warm day of the year to come out in full torce, and everywhere girls fitted about looking like gay arakeets in charming pink, yellow, inanve or blue organdie frocks that were a tass of billowing frills aud Aves. Most of them were further de corated with long streamers of ribbon."

Long black velvet streamers Trailed down dishind the capeline type of hal, these with a cluster of flowers constatating, the only | trimming of the hat; streamers of dillerent coloured ribbons added a note of lightners, and grace to frocks and couts, and daugle! from every p.ssible or impossible augle, so that many girls looked like a may-pole in -motion.
Another feature was the extent tu which decolletage in the day-time has developed. Last year, during the Spring and Summer months when the climate made it possible for wi men to come out in light frocks, they frankly revealed all of their arms from the shoulders downwards, and wide su expanse of their neck as they would without making it impossible, for their dress to remain hitched up on them. This year, they are not only showing al of their anns and a wide expanse of neck, but so much of the latter that alresses are being cut to reveal the tips of the
