A Quaint Costume.

Speaking of Miss Graitame’s costume as Almida in Clauclian at
Manchester, the British Architect says:—•

“ Chiton and himation seemed not only to have been made exactly right,
but what was of far greater importance, they were worn as they ought to be,
without pins and stitches, and thus every movement of the body received
from the drapery its natural accompaniment, the whole himation flowing
away sometimes, not like a milliner’s drapery, but like a cascade.”

bio pins and no stitches, and flowing away 'sometimes like a
cascade ? What an exceedingly inconvenient dress ! The only cha-
racter, as far as we can see, which would he appropriate in this
costume would be Undine.
