summarily ousted for applauding

They tell the story OF one star

brotherhood, claiming that his art

NEW YORK. Sept. 6.-America's
beauty scale Is going up, SO they
say.
Women are ever SO much better
looking than they were ten years
ago.
And If they are. there's a rea-
sonl
Women today are having a voice
In deciding what they shall wear
A little more than ten years ago
they didn't have any more to say
about the style Of their pompS thai
they did about the kind OF laws
they obeyed.
Then equal suffrage and stylist
came on the scene. Brains ana
beauty staged a joint debut.
Today there are almost one
thousand paid stylists. sometimes
known as fashion workers, trying
TO help American women choose the
styles. colors and fabrics which will
| them chick and charm and
beauty.
Mrs. Mary Brooks Picken. famous
New York stylist. who teaches
Economics of Fashion at Columbia
University, was one of the first
ONE to enter the styling profess
sion.
Representing All Women
"A stylist is a woman's repre-
sentative" she explains. She has
the woman's viewpoint. For many
years women had to accept mems
views. But when she started 10 in
crease her earning and her spend
ing power, she wanted to choose
her own clothes. Stylists. officially
recognized as such. developed.
Mrs. Pickens also has a fabric
and fashion studio in New York
City, where she is busy training
stylists and would-be StylistS con-
tinually. Her golden hair. large
brown eyes and a rose petal COM
pIexion add personal claim to the
styles she suggests.
7 have TO make my students
clothes conscious" she said. i
have to break down their prejudices
against certain colors and fabrics,
and also make them interested IN
clothes as a general subject for
everyone instead Of in their own in
dividual w~ardrobes."
Mrs. Picken has found that daily
papers and magazines are making
women develop a style sense They
are learning TO assemble their ward
robe from pictures before they buy
anything.
And when they do buy. 1t is a
woman's touch that is back of the
picture. The touch Of a woman
trained to know just what lines and
fabrics and styles are best suited
TO women.
The various types OF stylist posi-
tons are varied. ranging all the
way from designing garments TO

choosing the color Of a strand of
thread.
One girl became a stylist for a
thread company" Mrs. Pickens told
TO prove the need Of woman's in
fluence. She found that dull shades
were being manufactured by the
company. although the bright new
colors for clothing we're the vogue
everywhere. She made a tour Of $50
stores, noticed. how the sDools OF
thread were arranged. what fabrics
and what colors were selling in the
clothing departments. and encour-
aged her industry TO make the
shades which correspond to the
clothing.

styling was back Of the mans
work. And we have something last
ing and beautiful"
Women made their own clothes,
too. at that time.
1t is this same principle that
Mrs. Pickens and her students are
attempting to put into clothes

we used 70 have a symphony OF
colors In the wardrobe ensemble. "
she explained. 1t VAS a monotone.
But now We have color contrasts. It
is more complicated"
And incidentally. the women who
are fashion makers. studying the
styles. have more complicated tasks
as a result.
Mrs. Picken believes that while
America is the clothes dictator,
Europe will continue TO be the Gre
ator.
A Too Swift Pace
We work too fast to create
she said. "A girl must complete a
certain amount OF work by neon.
But IN France, for centuries, whole
families work for the same estab-
lishment. They aren't hurried. And
new ideas come. Little children are
given needles and allowed to think
up designs as part or their child
hood games"
Fashions are becoming more and
more what women want them 70 be.
as women have more voice IN
choosing them. And feminine appeal
Is the latest development.
The new fashions are making
women more feminine" Mrs Pic
ken believes. They are slowing up
dancing rhythm. They are encour-
aging women 10 entertain at home
instead Of at clubs and hotels. They
are making hostesses more attentive
to details Of charm. Carelessness Is
going away. And the change in the
method OF dress Is back OF IL ALL
Which would make it appear that
in spite Of the ~carefree manner
that the abbreviated skirts of yes
terday developed. maybe a woman
would rather be a lady.
And the thousand stylists, who
are paid to help decide what gowns
and shoes and hats their sisters
prefer 10 wear, have had a pretty
big part in bringing back the in
triguing lines that women favored
when they designed their own
things, long. long ago
