THE WORLD

SHORTER DAY

FROCKS

By Victorin Chappelle

OF WOMEN

How will English women accept the suggestion put forward by some of the London dress houses --and one or two of tho Frenchi ones as well-of shorter day! frocks? An inch of two seems to make a good deal of difference nowadays. A warning-do not. rush to cut down your dresses. Lengths depend entirely on height] and personal taste.

Linen Swagger Coats Among the sponsors of the new -or old short skirt length Is Stella Mary Pearce. And sho la one of the few London designers who have seen the charm of linen for swagger confs. She is showing some in a shade of faded batcher blue, with a strip of quilting down each sleeve. They are worn with printed cotton frocks, although this is the kind of coat which would look very 'smart for morning wear. There was a bright red flan- nel-awagger coat in her collection, too, with windswept revers, worn with a black frock.

! A severe neckline is a note which has swept all London collections, no matter whether plain scerves →tied craval fashion-draped necks, or little high collars are shown. Busvine showed one gown in chiffon with a touch of contras- iting material appearing inelde the high draped front neck-line; this was used also for the lining of the low cowl at the back. I thought it would make an admirable brides- maid's frock.
