Wave Os Modesty Sweeping England By Ethel Marshall International News Service Staff Correspondent. London. A wave of modesty seems to be sweeping over England, if one can judge by the models of fashionaible gowns that have been ordered for the great social parade at Ascot. Whilst at tennis or golf Miss 1928 will continue to appear in sleeveless frocks and knee-length skirts, dress designers are insisting that ■when she "dress herself up" for more formal occasions she shall appear with sleeves reaching to her wrists Snd with a'skirt of such length that when she sits down the Item of her gown shall cover at least four inches below the knee. Most of the iliaphonous frocks of printed georgette are provided with long coats of the same material. Whether this is for reasons of modesty or tlie keen winds of the typical English summer day remains to be seen. • Lace, to judge by the number of orders placed, is to be more popular than ever at Ascot this year. Quite a number of the gowns are designed with hems longer nt the back than al the front, but the ankle-length picture frock is entirely absent. o — Planes Rush Paris Styles Over Channel London -(U.R) Gold coin and bullion worth $130,000,000 lias passed through Croydon Aerodi me in tlm past thiee years on its way to or from the Continent, according to a report published here recently.
