brought out her models. and tho pic
turce of the now fashions the
material OF tho dress had already
been chosen. and the wholesale
dealer had sent in a bolt Of lovely
brown velvet 60 be tried for the ef-
feet Thon tho little ritter. Made
molsello Jeanne, was called In; and
under her magic like the mango
tree OF the Hindu-. the beautiful
creation grew under our eyes.
Jeanne threw an end or velvet over
my daughters shoulder; she put
pin here and nado a tuck thore, and
presto, . copy OF one OF the most
famous dresses designed this winter
by one OF the masters sprang into
being. a twist OF another Kind or
material formed a drapcd sleeve.
and within five minutes, we had, in
tho mirror. tho gown as 1t will look
when the material is cut and all the
stitches put In. The French seldom
have patterns, an. each dress is
made, as 1t were. on It's future
wearer.
Hats While You wait.
am told it Is tho same with fine
hcadEcar There are ready-made
hats, such as one sees in the win
dove. but the artistic Paris milliner
builds his hat on tho head OF the
buyer. Tho SCISSORS clip out the
lines most becoming, and with a
plentiful supply of pins to bend and
twist. the trick is performed. Every
woman now wears some sort or a
wreath on her hair IN the evening,
and this she buys at departmeno
store or in some small shop whlch
has copied tho creations Of the Rue
| de In paix.
The styles | see here In Paris do
not resemble the ones / left in New
York. nor those of the nouvoau-
| richie we brought across on our liner.
| The short skirts which call down so
much wrath on the heads OF our
American flappers passed away from
| Paris more than two years ago. and
the skirts OF the present are so long
| they come almost to the ankle. The
necks are cut high and even when
| there are no sleeves at all the neck
| Is as high as that of our afternoon
dresses at home, As to the rolled
stocking ! am told II has never been
| known in wicked paree."
Window Dressing In Paris.
There is nothing which shows sc
well how Paris Is working as n visit
