A Fashion Model’s Diary
By GRACE TH0RNCL1FFE
She Discusses a thnner Dress.
IT ^sn't often that we have as*
much excitement In the shop ms
we had today. The days gener
ally run along very smoothly, with
customers coming in and out and
orders being ouietly filled.
This morning, however, something
very interesting happened. It was
Just before the luncheon hour, and
the shop was pretty well filled.
Helene and 1 were waiting on two
of Madame's best customers. i
noticed a slip of a girl come In an !
sit down quietly In a corner, as >1
she were citing readv to wait
patiently for attention from one of
us. It wasn't unusual for someone
to do Just that and. had she been
one of our familiar custoincrs. T
probably wouldn’t have locked her
way again, after greeting her. How
ever. 1 had never seen her before,

casionally and wishing that some
body would get through soon to wait
on her because 1 don’t think It is
good business to keep a n»w cus
tomer waiting. I noticed that she
didn’t seem to mind, and thought
that perhaps she was waiting to
meet someone. I had Just about
forgotten her. w-hen Helene nudged
me in passing and said. * Sav. Grace,
look wbat that girl’s doing’’* I took
another good look. She had some
slips of paper In her hand and
seemed to be sketching. In a flash
I thought she must be a designer
from aome oilier shop getting id<as
from our models. Of course, we can’t
copyright our clothes, but we do like
to keep them original and exclusive.
But It turned out that she was
merely a student In designing, anxi
ous to get something new Into a test
drawing. All this we found out
later, after Madame had asked the
young lady if she couldn’t serve her.
The poor girl was so flabbergasted
at Madame’* personal attention, that
