TAILOR MAID

In Paris they call them "Les Gargonnes"—girls with a penchant for dressing up in boyish attire. Their hair Eton-cropped, their legs trouser-clad, they stride along the boulevards with all the loose-limbed assurance of the young Kate Hepburn. This, too, is the tomboy spirit which informs the best of fall's fad for masculine-style womens clothes. No matter how tailored, tweedy, or manly they are, one is always aware of the female beneath. The female in this case? Actress Anne Carlisle, versatile star of the cult movie Liquid Sky, in which she plays both a man and a woman.
