LESSON IX-PART III
The Present Fashi0ns-Are They Be-
coming to the Average Woman?
Physical Demands of the New Modes

To properly and attractvely wear the
new fashions the physical charms must
be considerable. These gowns are not
| made for careless and indifferent dress
ers. Women now must look sharply af-
ter their demerits and heavy or awkward
sigurea, discolored and lined throats
must either be reformed or these fash
ions avoided. If figures are too stout,
or. IL the movements OF the body are
growing stiff or heavy, physical exer-
cises must be taken up to correct these
faults. The collarless gown demands a
good throat line; the long, thin sleeves
that many of the French models show
emphasize the attractiveness of a beau
a badly cared for one.
Draped skirts, whether they are split
or not, only appear to advantage IL the
carriage is graceful. The walk must be
considered In short. these fashions are
designed for a certain type and can only
be worn to advantage when that type is
in a measure suggested.
How Fashions Originate
All important changes in fashions are
born In Paris. They may be changed
and adapted to suit the women of various
countries, but they originate In France,
the meeting point of the big dress ar
lists Of the world. French women are
very quick to adopt new ideas. and, when
designing the new models. the dress
makers have in mind certain French
beauties, that happen at that time to be
much talked of, some of them on the
stage and some in society. They look
to these women to display the new Ideas
to perfection.
For many years Cecile Sorel, a well
known actress and famous beauty, had a
strong influence on French fashions.
Mademoiselle Sorer is large, handsome
woman. not young, who shows off sump-
tuous gowns to great advantage. new
type of beauty, however, unconventional
type. what the, French call the canine.
which literally means the street girl. This
Is not so high a type of beauty as Made
moiselle Soreps. and the fashions for
which 1t is responsible are justly called
freak styles" However. in transplant,
ing them to America and for the use of
refined women these gowns have been di-
vested of much Of their vulgarity.
