HOW TO DRESS WELL.

Ten Commandments Of the smartIy
Gowned Woman.
To the woman who would be well
dressed a famous French dressmaker
writes ten commandments:
First.-Choose whatever is most be-
coming to your beauty-tightly fitting
garments or loose, flowing ones, the
strictly tailor made or the more elabo-
rate.
Second.-Choose the colors which so
well with your complexion, your hair,
your eyes.
Third.-Ohserve decorum always and
wear appropriate dresses in appropri-
ate places. 1t is because Of her ability
to understand the eternal fitness Of
things that the Parisienne is so often
the queen of large social functions.
Fourth.-This year, for instance,
am bringing out more dresses built on
straight lines.
Fifth.-If fringes such as I border
gowns with do not fit in with your per-
sonalty dare to wear any other kind OF
trimming that does.
SIXTH am keeping the light chiffon
overskirt which harmonizes or con-
trasts with the silk foundation. But il
that is not suitable to you dare to wear
heavy brocades and satins.
Seventh.-Personally l like strong col.
ors, colors OF life and poetry, but if pas
tel shades are becoming wear them, no
matter what the fashion.
Eighth.-If the high waist line such
as l still advocate does not reveal the
good points of your figure do not
adopt it.
Ninth.-Have the waist line wherever
it is becoming to you.
Tenth like the tight skirt and am
making it this year. But If you look
better in a wide one do not sacrifice
your beauty in a vain attempt at being
fashionable.
