Or perhaps in the variety OF fashion
today we see a comforting sign. Per-
haps We think it means that a woman
may dress becomingly, and yet fashion
ably. no matter how little she ap-
proaches a single type. For when fash

one set of details that are welded into
just one whole, a type woman must be

most women approach this type only
slightly.
Two things are emphasized by the
! modern great designer: Beauty Of line
and color. and the individuality Of
women.
The designer rsnsacks the world. past
and present. for inspirations in the de-
velopment OF these two ideas. The
beauty, the individuality. of some
women demands the long. sweeping

other women carries OF to advantage

Modern Russia holds secrets OF beauty

Such seems to be the idea OF the de-
signers in bringing ideas from all the
ages of the past. all the nations Of the
present. to bear on women's clothes.
Yet all these ideas and Inspirations
are welded. all modified. to produce re-
suits OF true beauty. Each frock pro-
duced by a great designer is in itself,
aside from the individuality of its
wearer. a perfect bit Of color. put to-
gether in harmonious lines. Sometimes,
of course. a failure reaches the publ,
just as any great artist sometimes
gives to the public something that IL
not a masterpiece. But this philosophy
of producing models beautiful in them
selves. yet capable OF interpreting the
individuality Of their wearers. seems to
he the working philosophy OF the de-
signer OF clothes today.
The encouraging part about all this
is that each woman may wear such
clothes as are really becoming and still

woman we see wears a smart French
frock with a normal waistline and a
skirt of the pegtop order. The next
wears a tiny jacket, hardly more than
