asked Miss Morosini how it was done.
The banker;'s daughter, whose beauty
is of the statuesque order, consented,
though a little reluctantly, to explain.
a"You see, when ono is permitted to
indulge a cultivated taste or aesthetic
idea without conserving oneself about
the EXPENSE said Miss Morosini,
with a smile, "a bill will run into
thousands with remarkable rapidity.
For instance, it would require only =.
100 dresses at ST. 900 each to reach
100000. ..'-
GA thousand dollars is not an ex-
travagant price to pay the best Par
isian dressmakers, especially when
you consider everything is handmade.
"1ndeed, Il gown may easily cost
from $4,000 to $4,000, without in the
least betraying it's price to the casual
observer. A gown of real lace may
cost most any price. One hundred
gowns year was a conservative es-
innate for the woman who entcrtains
and goes about a great deal, for some
women make it rule never to wear
the same gown a second time. The
duty on imported goods is high.
81 design everything I wear, for
for even consummate artist never
can know what suits as we'll as you
yourself know. And then one must
pay for the name of the artist in
gowns quite the same as in painting.
Paquin told me his best customers
were American women, and doubtless
money is spent lavishly here because
fortunes are made so quickly.
"And then New York women spend
more upon their wardrobcs than other
women, because we have not two sea-
sons, but four, and that means new
gowns, hats, coats wraps etc. four
times a year. We must have gowns
for the country, gowns for the city,
gowns for the theater, yaching, driv-
ing and automobiling, to say nothing
of reception calling, dinner, and ball
gowns. The simplest cannot be had
for less than 1926 by order from
| abroad.
"For instance, the simplest muslin
frock of yore, which was modest af-
fair, assumes now the dignity of a
new name in the lingerie gown,' and
can cost almost any price. Formerly
it was meant to stand a siege in the
laundry, but one would hardly trust
to the tub dimity, Ell princesse' OF
'Louis XVII embellished with sill,
embroidery and read pace ribbons
which cost from $3.50 to 81 900.
'"The hats Of to-day, too, are sc
unlike the hats Of yesterday that ons
must trust the building of chapear
only to one who understands her art
a Fashionable woman must pay from
$35 to $50 for a hat. For, after all
the hat is TO the face as frame is tc
