URGES REVOLT AGAINST
MAN DRESSMAKER RULE
"ThralldOm" Is What Mrs. Gil
man Calls Paris Fashions
in Talk at AstOr.

Mrs. Charlotte Perkins Gilman IN her
last lecture on masculinsm AT the Hotel
Aston yesterday urged women To revolt
against the despot of fashion-the man
dressmaker of Paris.
Several women. she eaid. are plan
ming To open next fall dressmaking es-
tablishment where She rebels can get
clothes made without troubling about
Paris.
Mrs. Gilman began, 10y reading letter
from "A middle aged woman who said she
could not lind "a dress In the stores that
was not too low in the neck. all punched
up about the hips and too tight about the
feet.
ut is time to break our helpless thrall-
dom to the ingenious gentlemen in Paris
who tell us what we ought TO wear"
said Mrs Gilman. 81 am not advocating
any costume except the right of any
woman to dress as she pleases. As 1t
is now. II we dare to have an opinion
Of our own our young misses call us crazy.
zone way to develop courage Is TO wear
what you please and what YOU know IL
right in the face Of opposition from your
family. and another way Is to go where
you please by yourself in the dark.
I'VE ought to be sick with shame to Ice
so timid. II the streets We're really dan
gerous we ought to get a permit to carry
a revolver. But they are not. | have
been on the streets alone at night from
san Francisco to Budapest and nothing
dangerous has ever happened. Disagree
able things sometimes do happen. and If
! lived in the black belt of the South !
might carr a revolver. but I should still
go where I pleased and wear what
pleased. It is time for women to develop
a normal pride in humanity instead of an
artificial pride in good looks and pretty
clothes"
