Individual Dressmaking Trade Falls of 30
Per Cent in Decade.

That the dressmaker who makes individual
dresses for individual women will ever disappear
entirely is not likely but there is no doubt that se
is being pressed harder and harder by the readyto-
wear trade A statisticfan VINO had occasion to
con,pile a record on this subject that the in
divid1a1 6ressnakng trade shows a falling of or
80 per cent in the number Of persons employed
since 1890 BY natural increase. had there been
no disturbing factor, the number ought to have
doubled in this time. At the same time ire
rnendous falling off has been noted in the dress
goods departments Of retail stores. the decline IN
the last three years having been 80 per cent
The great variety and cheapness Of the ready
made garments. the surprising smartness of many
Of them and the great convenience of buying the
garment ready made appeal to an increasingly large
number Of women. and the manufacturers OF such
clothing are constantly improving their stock both
in variety and design. One manufacturer an

On samples alone They not called samples. to
be sure models being considered a more elegant
term. but samples they remain, and as such they
will be sold at half the COST OF production before
the season is very old.
Designers of women's dresses in the big factories
Of New York receive from 5000 to $4,000 year.
and the trade employs a 900 persons the year round
and from 10000 30 600 in the busy seasons The
sales in Homen's cloak and suit departments in

in the last four years.
