...knee is missing no longer. It popped into view again at the spring ready-to-wear fashion shows in Paris as a flock of designers hiked the hemlines on at least some of their clothes. Women's Wear Daily promptly trumpeted the return of the mini. In fact, it is not. Skirt lengths, like their wearers, will continue to come in all altitudes.
