and Fashion Show on one date. The
most elaborate preparations were
made, goods brought from Europe and
the East, and the window displays
and interior decorations surpassed in
beauty and effectiveness anything Of
the kind ever seen in San Francisco
Not only was the show intended for
san francisco people, but every eff.
Tort was made to interest the people
OF Northern California. Huge fashion
posters placed in lesser towns within
one hundred miles of the city called
attention to the event, local advertis-
ing emphasized its Importance. and
reduced railroad rates opened the
way for an enjoyable trip at little
expense.
1t was a combined "boost" that did
much to center attention on the city.
True, heavy rains set in to mar the
beauty Of it all, but in spite of that
the shopping section never saw such
rainy day crowd as came out on the
first day of the show, and hotels re-
ported many out of town merchants
and visitors on hand to see and to
buy.
Some stores centered their atten-
ton on magnificent window displays,
showing trellised gardens, with min
iature fountains at play. around which
were grouped Partisan toilettes;
others made formal but magnificent
disnlays Of costumes and niece goods;
while still others used theatrical eff
fects-handpainted scenery in the
background, with figures among real
foliage which filled the rest of the
windows. Living models were used in
other stores, to show the newest cos
tunes
In no other large city in the Unit
ed States could such an event be held
in just the way it was held here. None
of the stores were much over three
years old, very one had a new equip
ment, every one had the fresh, clear
appearance which goes with newness
The Fashion Show was such sue
css that it will undoubtedly be con
tinued in future years
