am frank to confess that It Is
impossible for me to tell Just where
good style ends and the extreme be-
gins. It all depends upon the woman
who wears the clothes. What would
appear bizarre and startling If flaunt-
ed by demure, Puritanic type OF
femininity would only serve to en-.
nance the charms. of the statuesque
Gree with an "air." The latter can
carry or anything and not look
afreakish." but the former must be-
ware Of extremes-she will only in
vite ridicule II she dares to offend
good taste In dress.
And still the question confronts
us: What is good taste? Who will
dare to define this term? Some may
answer that 1t is individuality, but
this only serves to prove my state
ment that an extreme style may not
be freak; the individual makes
or does not make It so. Then, again,
what may seem an extreme viewed
through the eyes Of today maybe con-
sidered good taste tomorrow.
Good Taste.
A well known authority upon fash
ions. obviously man, has written of
the subject in this manner: DRESS
Is an affair of the emotions. No man
expresses his emotions in his dress.
Sometimes he turns over his ties
with personal interrogatory, but
never in exactly the same spirit as a
woman goes through her hat boxes.
Women are ruled by their emotions:
they have never become really civ.
alized." Think Of that

"lf they condescended to obey any
law, whether made by the state or
decreed by their sex, 1t is with a
charming air of revolt and a multi
tude of inward reservations. And
thus, because dress Is chiefly wom-
ans matter, good taste in dress Is In.
deinably difficult to lay down in
written law"
Having viewed the question from
various sides, am wondering II
there is any one who can really draw
a clear.cut line between good style
and the extreme.
Quite Serious Intent.
Each season grows its crop of what
may be termed freak" fashions. The
tickle dame numbers many "faddists"
among her followers, and their ex.
IRENE tastes must be catered to.
Taking a Kaleidoscope view Of the
past. see post-impressionistic
tumble OF mummy-skirts, Persian tn.
mics, minaret chapeaux, harem trou.
sers, crinoline. chemise-frocks and
oriental head-dresses. With such a
pace set by other days, / regard the
present with eyes wide open with in.
terest to discover the first Of the ex-
tremes.
Some Of them are startling. but as
a whole they lack the fantastic, i'm.
possible qualities that characterized
the freak styles of two or threey years
ago. This is too serious time to
deal extrayagantly In frivolities, and
coutnriers are not doing much carl
caturing OF fashions nowadays.
This is no apology for the present.

fashions are conspicuously absent
