full skirts for them that doesn't, and everything cut to hang not more than about 13 inches off the floor.
The straightest, narrowest skirts of the season are in these clothes, under snugly fitted hip-length jackets. Equally present, however, are skirts with a flare under jackets with a flip to the peplum.
There's a period flavor to much of the fullness. It reaches its peak in a black taffeta suit with a jacket laced up the front above the pointed peplum—fore and aft—trimmed with black velvet and tiny non-utilitarian buttons.
Other summer suits have dirndl gathered skirts. Flare-skirted silk dresses, most of them with matching jackets, are fully lined in taffeta to swing with oomph. There is a not-able small group of woolen town dresses which would look just fine at any office desk—on any office desker who could afford them—for as long as the fabric held together. One, in black on royal blue-striped woolen, is a slim, front-buttoned coat dress, with long.sleeves, high collar and graceful back fullness.
