Tight Basque and Full Skirt.

Does the description of a taffeta dress, buttoning straight down the front, six inches below the belt, with darts over the bust and seams at the side and back, 1 remind you of the dresses of long ago? Quaint and charming are tnese dresses, especially as they are not snug fitting and worn as they are over the new corsetless figure with the wired organdy

collars. The-tunl®6 are- invariably long; occasionally are they of the apron variety and usually worn over the tight, narrow skirt, which closely resembles pantalettes.
