Singular as it may seem to the
American mother who is intenuy
studying Christmas fashions for her
little ones, there are no really smart chill
dren's modes On Paris, except for wee ba-
bies. The best-dressed children are en-
phaucally the little American and English
residents. whose garments, however, bear
a Partisan distinction. This stamp of the
French n>Odiste is not difficult TO obtain
once the ropes Of Paris have been learned,
but strangers TO whom they are unfamiliar
are constantly inquiring of the delicious
little toilettes seen here and there: Where
on earth do you find such styles?"
The truth of the matter is that the grown
up dress and the baby dress serve as mod
els for varying ages between. That is, of
course, for those who desire their children
TO be smartly dressed, because the average
French child. except in the case Of the
ultra-rich and fashionable, once she arrives
at the school age. is dressed very plainly and
with little regard to the whims of fashion.
But up to five or six years of age the
