EXPRESS YOUR INDIVIDUALITY THROUGH DISTINCTIVE CLOTHES

Ann Shebipax, ir/io appears for Warner Bros, in "Angels Wash Their Faces.''

You have often envied the screen stars, with their beautiful, bewitching dresses that simply radiate glamour, and wished, and wished again, that you could have the same type of dresses and have them fit you just as perfectly as thev fit the Screen Stars. You know how Dress Designers of Hollywood make the Screen Star's clothes so perfectly? First o£ all, tbev study the Scrcen Star—her figure—her face—her colour—her temperament —her personality—pick out all her outstanding good points—note her peculiarities—and any little defect which she has—and then when they have all these listed, they sit down and design and make the dress for that Screen Star alone. And the result? Well, you see it for yourself on the films. Each dress expresses the Star s personality completely in the part she is playing. Never does the dress clash—but the dress on one Screen Star would probably clash when worn by another star, and that is why stars have such extensive wardrobes, because every one of their dresses is made to suit and meet their moods and personality. Wrong colours—wrong fabrics—wrong cutting—and lack of knowledge of a person's good points—of their defects—are only a few of the things that go to mar a dress and that feminine beauty and loveliness which is your birthright as well as the Film Star's. How to express youth aiul jraiety in frocks—how to give beauty and grace to tlic older woman's clothes —how to make every good point worth double its value—how to hide the bad points—how to stimulate confident*— poise—how to make the clothes fit the personality—and the figure so well that age is forgotten in the newer vision of loveliness and "race. Madame Yandcrbilt lets you into all these little sccrets which make all the difference!
