Rag modelling is Mayfair’s, latest amusement. The fashion has been set by Mme. WolkofT, nee Princss Troubclskoy, formerly of the Russian Imperial Court, who originated the idea in Petrograd for the benefit of Russian soldiers. Several British princesses were among those who flocked to Kent house, Knightsbridge, when Mme Wolkofi displayed some of the statuettes she has evolved since she came to England. Odd pieces of rag have been manipulated by her into lifelike figures. There were striking portraits of Miss Irene Vanbrugh, in a characteristic attitude, Admiral Lord Wester Wemysg smiling amiably, #nd Anna Pavlova in billowing white drift.
