Girl of To-Day Is Casting’ Off All ossible Trouble in Dressing She Wears Less Cumbersome Clothes as Time Goes On and Dresses More and More Sensibly. By Margery Wells. Copyright, 1922 (New York Evening World) by Press Publishing Co. TRLS are gaining sense about their dressing. They are learning to wear only the necessary garments. They are ceasing to load on of irrelevant clothes. Our grandmothers would be shocked at our lack of petticoats. They would shudder with imagined cold at our disregard of flannelled warmth. And yét, if we could bring their traditional minds to examine our theories oppress, we could, no doubt, convince them that we had gained in wisdom, gloves happened at dances; then it betook itself into the realms of that formal gathering, the opera, And now there seems no valid reason for wearing long white gloves unless you really want to. And even then they are not as smart as the arms that are quite unadorned. WE ARE EVEN SHEDDING OUR HAIR. Another fashionable care, the hair. has been cast off. Many are the new bobbed heads among young and old. The fashion is no longer confined to the flappers. It is something that has taken hoki of the vital, modern instincts of many women. They are beginning to How unnecessary,” “How hard to take care of,” “How unbeautiful most of the time"all this in relation to that well known “woman's glory.” They sec that it can be just us glorious when it 1s en- tirely comfortable FURBELOWS GOING BY THE BOARDS. rimmings, if present fashions are to be regarded as any indication, are fast disappearing from sight. It is almost a crime now to have a trim ming upon a frock which does not, at the same time, serve a purpose. It must finish an edge, or weight a skirt, or give line to a general com- position. There are no silly furbe- lows, Everything has a raison d'etre It is all quite cheering to gitls who think and who resent being encum- bered with clothes that have no bear ing upon their lives or their pursuits. They take much more pleasure in gathering together the clothes that, after all, are necessary, than they ever could, in this modern age, in compiling clothes meant for vanity alone. HATS ARE MORE PURPOSEFUL. Where, when you stop to think, have the large, unwieldly hats called picture hats gone? ° I remember when they gaid that a certain type of woman had to wear a huge hat. But now they are making small hats in such delicate propor- tions that ‘they are just as becoming as large hats would be. You see how subtle the change is and how it reaches to every fine point of woman's dressing and her appearance before the world? Some of tho changes continue to shock the old-timers, but they aré in- evitable marks of the progress of the feminine population and of its eman- cipation. They are not noticed every day, but they are there and all of our lives are the easter for them Going Down! Copyright, 1922, (The New York Eve: The World). by. Press Publishing Company.
