SHORTER SKIRTS ARE
FORECAST FOR SEASON
New York, Aug. 14. Fashion
notes from a new fall collection:
Skirts are shorter than they've
been since 1918—Fourteen inches
from the ground for narrow
skirts, and 15 for the circular
ones.
Everything has sculptured lines,
accenting the bosom and molded
to the figure at the waist. Day
time necklines are high, should
ers are square and slightly pad
'ded, with subtle exaggeration.
In Nettie Gossert's fall collec
tion, there are many one-piece
wool dresses with short fur coats
—black wool with broadtail is a
favorite combination, and spruce
green with full-backed swagger
coats of soft beige sheared pan
ther. ,
Some of the black wool dresses
have elbow length sleeves. Some
have a suit effect, given by short
fitted jackets trimmed with black
wool embroidery.
Youth, simplicity and variety
are the keynotes . . . Some of the
dresses with snug, molded waist- ,
lines have the hips accented with
