FANTASTIC GOWNS WORN BY BARBARA LA MARR.

Through the sombre .setting of "Trifling Women," Rex Ingram" s strange story, of which he has made a film production, moves the brilliant figure jotf Zareda, the fortune teller, the only woman in the' picture, played by the beautiful Barbara La Marr. Against the backcrpouiid of the story, Rex Ingram has made her a spot of radiant colour, gaflbed in an infinity of hues, draped in exotic silks and satin, rich velvets and brocades. It is estimated that upon the fifteen gowns worn by Barbara La Marr in the production over 20,000 dollars has been spent, bringing the cost of each gown to more than a thousand dollars. Four dress makers were kept busy throughout the two months of production, ami because of the intricacies of design and pattern were barely able to keep pace with the demand. The picture will be the Friday feature at the Maori land.
