With Styles of All Periods
to Select From, the Women
Who Achieve Distinct
i've Attire Are Those
Who Dress 60
Their Type.

NTEVER before has there been so much scope for
" the expression of individual taste in clothes as
there has been this year Truly it may be said
of to-day that she is slave to fashion. In
versey she has made fashion her slave She may wear
what she will may use any of the many varying and
opposing suggestions offered by creators of fashions
and mould them TO her taste, stature and per-
sonality All that history and all nations have taught
is in ready alignment for her choice and for her &C
Ceptance.
Woman is fairly put to it to express her own per-
sonalty with the rich offerings OF all types in raiment
before her. She no longer dresses fashonably That
is which to-day means nothing in itself. Where
fashion may define a straight, loose dress and an
deliberately draped one, full circular skirt severe
narrow and yoked and pleated one equally well,
one may easily that another adjective is needed to
define the we'll dressed woman.
Emphasizc--Not Disguise-One's Personality
1t is not the approved cut of the garment or the
popular material that gives the gown its indenable air
of utter correctness 1t express the personality
of the wearer. She has before her wide range of
garments, from severely simple almost masculine at
tire to the daintiest and most mysteriousy ncompre
hensble costumes of feminnity. She must choose her
type 1t is fairly criminal for gowns merely
waiting for tenants give life and meaning TO their
structure. 1t is not enough to select gown that is
decide whether that particular gown echoes
phase of the wearers personality.
when l enter shop" exclaimed one woman who
was arrayed in gloriousy satisfactory Il look
for a gown that looks like me. Any on, can ind
plenty of nice and pretty frocks. But when looks
at garment and finds that it is what one has been
desiring that it expresses ones individuality, one
signs with wholesome satisfaction. Every who
but takes the trouble to search her particular gown
will look and actually feel infinitely better than the
woman of the past decade who dressed modishly,
without regard 10 her type.
If all women but knew how important the element
of personality is in dress if they but realized how
much their clothes will be taken indications OF
character they would not leave the selection OF it to
unconscious reactions but would put definite study and
thought into the matter.

attractive young girl whose personality is possessed

contradictions. One occurrences in her features,
