Yves St. Laurent, Christian Dior and rest of those guys can stick it, we're not wearing mini skirts again. Those designers are trying to sneak it up on us by shortening skirt lengths by two or three inches for the spring season, but rumor has it that over in Paris, the thigh revealing creations of the late 1960's are on -their way in (or up). The trend setting women will follow the revived style, but for the most of the skirt wearing sex, the minis won't be allowed back on the bodies without a fight. Men of course think the clothes dsj4ers have come back to their s, but what,do they know. The men's opinion might change if they had only a few inches of material to cover their behinds. Minis are a highly impractical form of dress, rendering certain normal body movements im- possible to the conscientious woman. One wrong move and the mini wearing female is suddenly prey to hundreds of staring male eyes. Reaching for something a mere six inches above your head is a sheer impossibility when wearing a mini. As the mini wearer reaches up to take hold, her skirt un- doubtedly creeps up to her waist. Masters of the practice of yoga could manage the task of reaching over their heads and at the same time hold their skirt in place, but the rest of us either have to keep everything within reach or grin and bare it when wearing a mini. Reaching up is not the only problem, dropping things while wearing a mini is far worse. The result of fumbling fingers can be abandoned where it lies or the brave mini wearer can attempt to ease herself to the floor to pick it up. There's no bending over you know, the woman must maneuver herself to the floor while keeping all sides covered; If she has any morals at all. Even then, the most subtle female may have problems with this _since mini skirts are generally close fitting and don't allow much room for movement without splitting one of those little seams. Then there's falling while wearing a mini. Need anything else be said! Not only do normal movements suddenly become a horrifying task for women wearing minis, but many figures themselves don't take kindly to the revealing skirts. Most of us don't have Betty Grabie legs and knobby knees are not generally known as the most at- tractive part of the body. Women can spend a fortune buying nylons during a mini craze. A small run can be hidden under a below-the-knee skirt but nylons filled with holes and minis skirts are about as attractive as a fat woman in a bikini. Women can find many major problems in the mini but few can see anything wrong in the longer version of skirts, and so our case rests. In all probability, most women will opt for all- covering pants if raised hemlines hit the North American fashion scene.
