The American Woman's Taste in Dress

example of poor taste, which fact
proves that New York's smdrtly gown
ed women are merely eXamples-re-
Elections as it were-of the women OF
any representative American city. Inc
idea that the woman of style is only
to be seen in New York is preposter-
Gus. OF course it is conceded tnSs a
sisters in the matter of dress. More
handsome gowns have never been seen
at one time anywhere than at the hrst
it did nothing else the opening night
audience demonstrated that the Wo-
men of Chicago are abreast with their
majority of the new styles originate IN
New York, but this is due to the size
of the place and the number of lead
ing couturiers who have their main es-
Establishments here. These couturlers
are continually presenting new ideas
in dress. but many of their smartest
creations are purchased by visitors to
Manhattan and are never worn here.

ton is but a visitor within the portals
of neutrality-suspicious. she is from
New England, maybe she is a daughter
of the City of Brotherly Love, or quaint
old New Orleans-from wherever she
comes she brings an air Of style,
grace of carriage that stamps her a
woman of as discriminating taste as
her New York sister.

charming afternoon frocks worn by a
society matron from the middle west.
The first figure shows a little frock
which was a study in black and white,
| first glance seem simplicity itself, yet
on closer inspection reveal the most
exquisite taste in every detail. The
bodice was fashioned of ivory-white
chiffon cloth and worn over a guimpe
of white silk Vicy lace. II had a mar

at the opening outline and this band
trimming was repeated on the sleeves.
The body and sleeves-which were cut
in one-were tucked solid in fine hand
