FASHION'S CHANGES

1920 Gown Ludicrous To-day "Every time I see that old frock hanging up, I-wonder how on earth I could ever appear in it."

Miss Joyce Carey, who is play-° 1 dle of "A Young n in Pink" in the present revival at the Adelphi Theatre, made this remark about the pink frock that she wore in the original production three years At every performance she has to gaze at it hanging on a peg in the old clothes shop scene.

No more eloquent object-lesson of how quickly women's dress ages could be found than in this particular scene. The clothes that decorate the walls are the stylish dresses worn in the origin. al 1920 production.
