Lanvln developed her costumes of
(‘zecho-Slovak inspiration in the form
of a long coat or overdress with a
tight undershirt. Some of the cos-
tumes even had the loose hanging

There were few women who cared to
accept such an extreme movement in
dress. so these were soon replaced by
a short. tight skirt falling below a
long tunic. 'l‘he tunic did not allow
more than a few inches of the under-
skirt to show. A great deal still is
made of skirts of this type. The peas.
