UNCONVENTIONAL COSTUMES.
Common in Paris and Attract Little
Attention.
no2- d&ds,eSt

From the London Standard
In contrast with London with its strict
ness and convention in dress. Paris is easy
going. do not suggest that Parisians are,
as a whole, either careless or badly
dressed-that would be libel on all whose
names are in tout Paris"-but 1t is true,
think. that many Parisians, especially
among the middle and lower classes, show
such dislike for uniformity that In get
ting away from the conventionality they
fall into the remarkable. Coats, hats
waistcoats and boots are worn in combina-
ton which betray little method in the mad
ness. yet they attract not the slightest at
tention, and foreigners from north, south.
east and west parade the streets unheeded.
Only day or two ago 1 met newly mar
ried couple in the Rue de la Paix wearing
the costumes in which they had just been
married The bridegroom had on the con-
ventional French habit OF the working
class, very similar to the English evening
dress, and his bride still wore spray OF
orange blossoms in her haE. but the couple
were stared at no more than were couple
of English climbers nearby. who were wear
ing knickerbockers and hob nailed boots
and carried Alpenstocks. like Tartarin
when he arrived at the Rigi Hotel. The
freedom of dress Is SO unrestricted that 1t
Is sometimes said that anything may be
worn, in Paris unnoticed, but I discovered
today that one costume had succeeded in
attracting attention where Chinese, Indian
and Arab dresses had failed. About mid
day dark-skinned man crossed the Place
de rOpera in one OF the most extraordinary
costumes that can be imagined. His trou-
sers OF black silk were like anything but
the garment they did duty for. His shirt
was gaudy orange, and the sleeves flowed
out large and lurid from the armhoies OF
q bolero made OF beautiful cream lace. His
head was wrapped In q multi-colored turban
and his legs were bare below the knees,
except for socks and patent leather boots
He was followed by a knot of inQussitive
oilers. who showed that the wise tolerance
of Paris had been defeated for once. But
reflected that In London he would have
been followed By hundreds.
