MUSLIN FOR EVENING
Paris mid-season openings show that for evening organza has largely given way to muslin, which is more supple and allows for many more thicknesses of material, thus showing the vogue of tire season, which is a lampshade skirt. The skirt is absolutely flat at the waist and down to the hip, but it has acquired countless yards of width by the tune it reaches the ground. Foundation skirts for evening follow the same principle as for day, that is, they are cut in the same shape as ' the top skirt. Some capes for evening ! are made of small rose petals in orI ganza closely sewn together.
