Yes, an Exhibition that surpasses any that is held in the Fashion
able Capital of the world! In Paris there is no assemblage of all the
modes that are decreed, for one must attend each dressmaker's opening
and each presents quite different ideas. But we have brought prac
tically all the new modes of Paris for your inspection only the finest;
but several scores of these. If you meditate for a moment, you will
realize the magnitude of this undertaking!
And when you view this pageant of two score beautiful women
attired in the exquisite gowns and wraps, as they promenade along
the tremsed garden walks, and as you hear the soft strain
of string instruments in the distance, it will seem quite
like a fairy picture of Marie Antoinette's charming Court
and then, when the grandes dames 'in their gowns of
taffetas past by, the regain ess of Eugenie's Court will arise
before your very eyes.
Although the new modes were influenced to a great
degree by the costumes worn in those periods, they are
really composite creations of the salient ideas of those
gowns of long ago modernized in more artistic and
wearable styles.
While Paquin, Callot, Worth and other artists favor
paniers, Paul Poiret remains unique in his adherence to
Things Oriental the Durbar gave him fresh inspiration.
By importing such a magnificent collection of modes,
our idea was not merely to present an unparalleled
display, but to bring to American women the finest wearable
toilettes not "show' dresses. And in saying this we have
in mind Paquin 's masterpiece, the price of which is $1200
a gown superb enough for an Empress. Then there are dainty
little frocks for debutantes, afternoon costumes, tailored suits and
wraps illustrating the genius of
Paquin Callot Worth
Drecoll Francis Margaine Lacroix
Beer Paul Poiret Martial et Armani
and other Pa; is an dressmakers.
That the modistes of Paris have crowned this season with exquisite Hats will also be disclosed by
this Display for it is said that our importations of
French Millinery
By Georgette, Lewis, Reboux and Other Famous Modistes
are the largest that have crossed the Atlantic this Spring. The Younger Generation may also come and
see what frocks and suits Fashion has created for little maidens and charming girls in their teens.
Blouses exquisite creations of lace in the new casaque andpeplum styles Neckfixings, Gloves, Para
sol?, Footwear, and all the accessories that are required to perfect the toilette are shown in their latest
conceptions.
La Promenade will be presented tomorrow and following days between the hours of 10:30 A. M.
and 12:30 P. M., and from 2:30 to 4:30 P. M. on the Eighth Floor, starting in the Auditorium,
which has been recreated into a magnificent drawing-room, then passing along garden walks through the
Piano Salon and the Tea Room.
