Ladies' Cycling and Golf Dress
If correct, depends largely on the hang of the skirt. The
Bicycle Skirt has been evolving itself from dark and chaos for
almost ten years. Do you remember the early attempts that
clung and bothered and flew around in spite oi the little sand
bags and lead weights in the hem? The experiments that
failed so dismally, that bagged where they shouldn't and drew
where they shouldn't, and "hung" with all the free abandoned
grace of a dejected meat bag?
Now see these new styles and acknowledge that the
world moves rapidly in these days, These skirts of ours are
as near to perfection as such dress can be.
Graceful, suitable, practical and becoming, made from the
right kind of goods, and made as they must be to get our tag
on them.
The Best of It All
