ican women what to wear. admits that
he learned a few tricks OF the trade in
New York. In the first place, while
Nine. Poiret is his favorite model when
he Is designing a gown, he finds that
American models can wear them with
grace and effect-extreme though they
be in style. Furthermore, while NJ.
Poiret uses some Paris-made moving
pictures to illustrate his lectures, in
kinemacolor he has found the ideal me-
dium for the display Of his costume crea-
tions in all their color combinations and
texture OF fabrics.
At first n. Poiret used hand-colored
stereopticcn slides to show the various
color combinations. but after his first
view Of the Kinemacolor motion pictures
of his gowns, as worn by the handsomest
models in New York. he consigned the old
glass slides to the waste basket and ar
ranged to illustrate the remainder Of his
lectures in thisocountry with the natural
color motion pictures. His comment on
these pictures. written in his own hand
on the register of guests at the Kline
macolor Exhibition Theater reads:
Paul Poiret-Paris.-An his best
thanks. Kinemacolor is wonderful"
