Fashions Reign in Paris

Paris is already righting herself
from the disaster of the floods, and no
better proof of this could be desired
than the fact that, if possible even a
little earlier than usual, the spring
ferment has arrived in the Rue de la
PaiX.
For it is the season when the buy
ers come from all over the world to
see the models which have been created
by these autocratic arbiters of fashion.
1t is of no use to say that London and
New York are Just as capable of set
ting the fashions as Paris. says the
New York World. The proof is that
crowds of buyers go there year after
year for inspiration; and if later we
hear that the styles are Just as pret-
ty in New York as in Paris 1t is be-
cause the heads of the big dress max
ing houses in that city have gone to
Paris for ideas.
