One of the outstanding students
of fashion in the world, Miss
Hughes makes this prediction so
far as the future of American
fashions is concerned:
"Paris, London, Moscow, Buenos
Aires, Melbourne and all other
world capitals will initiate the
American Look far more eagerly
than the world ever tried to ape
the models of Paris"
Although the United States
fashion industry received its
greatest impetus through the fall
of France and the destruction of
the Partisan fashion marts, it had
been fighting for recognition since
the early 1920's.
