Youthful Fashions.

HERE is a young man making women’s dresses in Paris who claims to be the youngest dressmaker in the capital. He says also, that he cannot help it. He feels young, thinks youthful thoughts, and since he express his thoughts in dresses, he naturally creates young styles. What is more, he makes clothes which are essentially suited to the women of his generation. If older women can wear them, so much the better, but youth is his preoccupation. His sport clothes are simple in line, intricate in detail. With soft, bright colours he combines the kind of sport ensembles which are now being worn, and have been worn all summer long on northern and southern coasts.

He takes a blue jersey, and works into it two or three more blues in patterns which are geometrical in a crazy way. He uses bright red, dark red, with grey and black, he has many greeu ensembles, and to everything he makes he gives that young- self-confident appearance which is so charmingly modern. Short skirts have a spring at the side, a flare at the front, tight hips, and a jumper which clings to the figure in a soft yielding way. Belts are used and scarves be long, and there are long coats,. short coats, and cardigans, with sleeves and without, The great thing to remember about these clothes is their almost insolent youthfulness,
