Modes for Season Offered by Paris

These are the vital features of the autumn openings of the Paris couture—an essentially broader silhouette, a waistline which is definite and distinct and jyhich shows a rising tendency, the back flare, a skirt length which, while little changed mathematically, has added lengthening effects, a generous amount of elaboration in trimming and details, and a direct departure from bizarre boyishness. Now the word of Paris, as issued at these seasonal openings, says a fashion writer in the New York HeraldTribune, is no longer uttered in the stentorian tones of pre-war days, when the smartest French designers spoke but to be obeyed. It has become in comparison a still, small voice to be followed or not, according to the inclinations of fashion’s new aristocracy, the mesdames of the anode— otherwise known as the penultimate consumers. No longer does an uncritical public accept willy nilly the convention-made dicta of the Rue de la Paix and surrounding avenues, and probably half the themes launched at each semi-annual showing are ruthlessly discarded by the spirited members of the modern haute monde. Wherefore it behooves the followers of fashion to carefully analyze the new themes in order to separate the chaff from the wheat, and in order to ascertain which themes are to be the distinguishing marks of the chic monde during the season. The Invariable Flare. The wider silhouette per se offers no problem save in the minds of those who are constitutionally unable to shake off the thrill of the slim straight line. Resistance, of course, is the human elem<*ht which combats every fashion change, and the long duration of the narrow silhouette made the departure from it more than usually difficult. Last autumn witnessed a few tremulous instances of the flare, always with the straight line offered as an alternate; last spring saw most of the couture converted to the wider outline, and the present season lias uncompromisingly declared itself in favor of the full silhouette. The defined waistline is another theme to which the mode and its followers were predisposed. Long years of tubular iteration had made the waistless outline appear a little jaded even in the eyes of its most ardent adherents, and changes have been

hinted at occasionally during previous openings. It cannot be said that the defined waistline is anything near as universal or distinct a tendency as the broad silhouette, but the idea has been incorporated into the leading collections and it is certain to gain momentum as the season progresses. Just now it occupies the same position as the flare a year ago—it is not prescribed and it can be omitted, but the forward-looking ladies of the mode will avidly accept it. Predisposition was the raison d’etre for the back flare. Spring and summer having witnessed front flares and side flares ad infinitum, it was only natural that the designers would seek new havens for their elaborations, and nothing but the back remained. The flat back had been one of the prime essentials of the old outline and it was almost heresy to dare disturb it, but the couture, acceding to the restlessness of the moment, made the attempt. It has not been a particularly happy one and most of the effects achieved have been awkward and inartistic. Unless the Paris salons are able to incorporate the back flare in a more attractive manner it is doomed to pass quickly into the discard. In any case it is not an essential of the mode and its acceptance is purely an individual matter—it is neither a prescribed nor a proscribed element of the new chic. Moderate skirt length, elaborate

decoration and the passing of the mode garcon are three effects with but a single cause. Bizarre extremes are at best the vogue of a single season, and the ever-increasing tide of fashion toward normalcy has accounted for all of these three effects. The abbreviated skirt had reached the kneeline in Paris, and whatever physical freedom it afforded its wearer was more than offset by the accompanying mental discomforts suffered by the cultured woman. Moderation is the keynote to taste, and the acutely abbreviated skirt was its direct antithesis. The present skirt length, while not materially different than last season’s, has added points and scallops to convey greater length, and most designers have created the majority of their models to give this lower effect. Just as the tendency of the waistline is to go a little higher, the skirt hem is headed a little lower, and the smart autumnal maiden, while retaining in general the short skirt, will never let it reach the distressful

extremes of last season. Fifteen inches off the ground is about the proper length. Elaboration and a more feminine atmosphere to the new models obviously go hand in hand. The very boyish bob and an inartistic mannishness affected by some Paris extremists during the summer led many to believe that severe mannishness was to be the guiding spirit of autumn fashions. As has been frequently pointed out, the tendency of the mode in smart circles was and is distinctly toward maturer, saner and more feminine styles, and the severe coif was last summer’s only real evidence of mannishness, save among some bizarrists who carried little authority. At any rate the autumn offerings are more frilly than in many seasons and there is every indication that increased elaboration will meet with favor among the minions of the mode. For in the ranks of fashion the eternal feminine is steadily replacing the fleeting feminist. Patou Uses Fuller Lines. The Patou collection always marks a milestone on the road of fashion. Whenever anything new is to be shown one can be sure of finding the latest interpretation of the novelty in the stately salons of the Rue St. Florentin. This season Patou contents himself with stabilizing the new higher waistline that he introduced in the spring, and even there he temporizingly admits the possibility of other tilings, for some of his new models have the waistline near the hips, while others raise it so that length of skirt Is the main feature on which emphasis is laid. Both coats and dresses are fuller than before, while jackets are either very long or very short. These, like the wraps, are copiously trimmed with fur which, according to Patou, is the only trimming able to create an effect of richness and comfort in winter time. Many plain fabrics are used, including the oid favorite crepe satin, but the dominating note this winter is silk velvet. There is also a new silk velvet with a’ straight pile, something like a plush. This velvet falls in a special manner and Jean Patou has retained the exclusivity of the fabric for some months to come, so that models made of it may be considered as characteristic of that house. Colors are rich and varied. There is, of course, the black, brown and beige that always forms the basis of the winter wardrobe, but much red is used, especially a grenadine shade and a deep Corinthian red that has been christened Patou’s Corinthian. There are also two new greens, one a yellowish shade, the other a deep moss green, while the gamut of blues has not been neglected.

Students Show More Interest in History A marked rise in the interest in history since the World war is seen in the increased enrollment in history correspondence courses of the University of Wisconsin extension division says an official bulletin. Some 226 students completed their history courses in the two years from 1922 to 1924, as compared with 232 who completed their courses in the twelve-year period from 1908 to 1920. In 1918 the enrollment in history was 895, and in 1924 the total had climbed to 3,442. “The popularity of the course reflects public opinion decidedly,” said Miss M. L. Edwards, in charge of the extension history department. “After the war the demand, was chiefly for a general European history course. After the Egyptian tombs brought the King Tut craze, our ancient history courses swelled in enrollment. The demand for American history is constant.”
