TIFF, HEY.: OMAHA. TCESDAY. MAliCl! 2: ViV.
T
By MELLIFICIA. Monday, March 22, 1915.
HE first days of rprlng are here, and with them all possible styles
to tempt the most fastidious of connoisseur.
Farls decrees that w must wear very short and very full
pkirts this spring and summer five Inches above the ankle, and
'.hat means several more from the floor.
One very daring Paris silhouette shows madauie with a sirt that
comes ten inches a bene the ankle.
Tate, or, rather the talent of the Tarls routurlere, Is kind, for with
these very short dresses and suit skirts there is an empire waist line that
proportions the figure correctly.
Colors In the afternoon frocks show a tenancy to grm-nlsh yellow,
deep blue and old rose tones. Faille seems to be the great favorite in
silks and there arc also lovely changeable taffetas and a new and very soft
cashmere. In the suit materials, covert and gabardine are (he nollceablo
favorite. ,
