fortunate that feminine fashions
should now be SO non-national, "
said NJ. Leon Bakst.
IF only women would realize
how unfortunate it is. The women
of society are too cosmopolitan in
the matter Of dress, and this is a
purely modern error.
Monsieur Bakst has not been in
America, so he contrasted French
fashions which are designed upon
French types Of figures with what
he sees in England. But inasmuch
as American women are much more
nearly like English women in figure
than they are like French women,
much Of what he says about what
English women look best in applies
to American women no less.
Each nationality has its type,
says Monsieur Bakst, "and the art
OF the costumer must be to devise
creations in keeping with that type.
Furthermore, we must remember
climate. Does one expect the out

south of France to suit London?"
