which received smart and conspicuous
acknowledgment was given at fash
ionable hotel last autumn under the
auspices of Vogue. in that only New
York designs were shown in order to
give encoura cement to American talent.
which was supposed to need swift
recognition and approval because of
the supposed inability of France to sup
ply US with the usual quota.
Nothing definite was accomplished
by it as far as the original designing
was concerned, but small fortune was
netted for the sewing girls of Paris.
and the wheels began to turn in fash

The idea needed just such an impe-
tus to popularize it. The idea itself
was not new. but the fashion exhibits
that had been held were to the interest
of an individual or a group of workers.
