L Is an old saying that Go where
you will, you will find French
- fashions, but only in Paris does
one see them as they should be
worn.
1t is true that with the French dress
IS an instinct, while with the rest OF
the world 1t is an acquired art. but il
is also tue that the war has brought
about great awening of interest in
dress, and Americans, quick to per-
;celve and seize upon an advantage are
rapidly arriving at what is at least a
very good substitute for the French
instinct, namely. feeling for dress
and an appreciation Of it's possibilities
and importance.
And now that conditions abroad
have, as one might say, broken up the
ground over here. French genius and
the Parisienne's temperament are
bound to be much better understood
and their influence will be much more
Ear-reaching low that we are quite
prepared, as it seems we are, to accept
dress as our sisters across the sea do.
