LIGHTER STOCKINGS
Paris stands very little chance of making headway with her black stocking fashion (according to a London expert). She has threatened to launch a campaign for popularising the filmiest of black silk stockings for wear with the black ensemble, and a few smart Frenchwomen have attempted to give the fashion a lead. But a casual inspection of stockings being worn mid stockings being shown in the neighbourhood of Bond Street recently seemed to suggest that if anything Englishwomen are buying and wearing much lighter stockings than has been the case for a season or two. There is no danger of a return to flesh and pink tint—for which most women will be thankful—but every well-dressed woman is chosing suntan and other pale brown tints, and a few silvery grey shades are making their appearance again after being in the background for a good long time.
