Slit Skirt Backed by Judge in Kansas City
Judge Ralph S. Latshaw of the Criminal Court defended fashion against morality campaigns insisting there is nothing immoral in the slit skirt or diaphanous gown. He argued narrow skirts do not imply immorality and recalled hoop skirts as a former extreme. He urged that women should dress to appeal to men and that fashion has progressed beyond past modesty standards.
