WOMEN MAY REJOICE
POCKETS ARE BACK Pockets are back again in feminine clothes. , But not, contrary to masculine hopes, because women have become economicallv minded about their handbags. For although autumn suits have more pockets than any man would dare to own, in nearly every case the wearer has a portmaneau-sized handbag as well. Even a few of the new evening gowns have pockets—not tucked modestly away in the petticoat and reached through a placket-hole as they would have been fifty years ago, hut in hill view of the public eye. Some of the velvet dresses recently shown in London had two enormous pockets, one filled with a lace thandkerchief, on each side of the skirt.
