No Long Skirts
Bainbridge Republican, Nov. 2, 1922
New York--The ankle length skirt was officially and permanently removed from the wardrobes of 300,000 New York women yesterday by the action of delegates to the convention of the New York City Federation of Women's Clubs, in voting unanimously to wear dresses no longer than seven inches from the ground. The resolution urged women everywhere to free themselves from apparel now being introduced and having edges that nearly sweep the ground and carry germ-laden dirt into the home.
