Some Dont’s in Dress.
Don’t neglect quality for the sake of quantity. Don’t wear a white petticoat unless it is white. Don’t forget that long credit often brings discredit Don't trim good material with common trimmings. Don't Imagine that beauty will atono for untidiness. Don’t look a frump because you cannot look a swell. Don't expect great bargains to turn out great saves. Don't dress to startle people’s eyes, but to satisfy them. Don’t make your own dresses unless you can do it well. Don’t jump into your clothes and expect to look dressed. Don’t achieve the grotesque while attempting the original. ‘ * Don’t wear a fur or a feather boa with a cotton dress or skirt Don’t dress your head at the expense of your hands and feet Don’t buy cheap imitations if you can afford the genuine article. Don’t put cost before cut Corded silk won't cover a clumsy fit.
