FASHION CHANGES.
UNEVEN HEMLINE TO GO. French fashion creators have apparently decided that, so far as they are concerned, women's daytime skirts are to be much longer. The dipping lines which created so unfavourable an impression at Ascot are condemned as ugly, but skirts which reach almost, if not quite, as far as the ankles are envisaged. The waistline will be considerably higher in front than at the back. Skirts . for daytime wear are to be longer, a necessary result of the higher waistline. These new proportions will give a long, slender and youthful effect. The drooping hemline, which was extremely ugly, will vanish. Skirts will be equally long or short, as the case may- be, all the way round. Evening dresses will be short. . ' !
