Evening Republican, Volume 19, Number 291, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 9 December 1915 — Silk Skirts Are Full. [ARTICLE]

Silk Skirts Are Full.

Many of the new silk skirts have scalloped edges and sawtooth edges, sometimes bound with silk, occasionally with a contrasting color, which shows with every movement of the wearer. Tulle overskirts to such dresses are boknd with the same silk and thus they fall in graceful curves. Picot-edged ribbon often adorns the hems of skirts, and the taffeta coats that accompany them have many ruches and trillings. They are generally very full, and are shaped by cording. It seems probable that the skirts will be wide for some time to come. Often high boots supplement the short skirt.
