REMGH DESJOMEH VISfTIMG CHICAGO
Psul Poiret .Whose Designs Are Always Fashion's Sensations, is Observing Styles in the . Metropolis. M. Paul Poiret, the famous French costumer, who, through a series of ar tistic shocks, has transformed the skirt into a garment of simplicity and beauty, is making his first visit to Chi ago to see how Chicago women, wear his creations. State st. merchants entertained him at a luncheon at the Blackstone hotel yesterday, when he lectured on "Art and Drees." The hobble Eklrt was the first thrill M. Poiret gave to the fashionable world. The harem skirt caused still stronger vibrations. Then came the slit skirt, which' caused thousands of gasps, and nod .enters the laest in gplratlon the minaret skirt, the most alluring of all. Morals Don't Interest IHm. "Are they not 'Immoral?" M. Poiret was asked by several fashionable, but fearful, enthuslasts.v "Immoral?" echoed M. Poiret In a wondering tone. "I am not Interested In morals when I am designing by costumes. An artist concerns himself only with art. All the work turned out by the great Parisian establishments Is judged on purley artistic merits. If a dress is beautiful, it is good, If it Is ugly. It Is bad. "SlmDllcitv and suitability that is I art In dress. French women have 1 fewer natural advantages than the women of any other nation, but they ' are always attractive because they ! nokw what to wear and when to.wpar ' it. j "We breathe style In the very air of Paris. I do not make tho fashions ' T n rv- niAA ViV Vicm A r i what 1 c n tv ctvl hut n nPTi- variation of beau ty? And as I go on my way I seem to f1 r th ntmo.qnhere what the new 1 ! variation of beauty will lie. ; Madame Is Three Years Ahead. "My designs are first worn by my I wife, and she always adopts a mode two or three years before It is generally worn." American styles for American women was suggested to the visitor as a formidable slogan which showed the trend of thought of the loyal American women. "Never!" exclaimed M. Poiret. "The well dressed American woman will always have to go to Paris for her designs. You talk about your American designs, their independence, and originality. What are they but replicas or reproductions of French deslgnsc? If there ever be an American style for American women it will originate in Paris. "The French dressmaker has that subtle, mysterfoug something that makes a gown a work of art. It is born in him. Costuming is the great national industry of France. It cannot be transplanted. What great national industrv can? Render Unto Caesar.' "America has Its cocktails there are none like them the world over. Italy has Its spaghetti, London its mutton chops and Paris Us fashions. "And it is men who make those fashions. In this country a man who interests himself in women's clothes is considered unmanly and effeminate. But never in France. And why should it be an.vwhere .' Is not the art of dress one of the greatest of the arts? What is cold stone or canvas to graceful, plastic, living creatures? What art could be greater than one that draws forth the hidden beauty of a woman the world calls plain, or accentuates the beauty of a woman already beautiful?" Those who have entered the establishment of M. Poiret apparently realize the truth of the statement, for they go to the F"renc! costumer as they would to an artist to have their portraits painted. And one warning M. Poiret gives to every' woman: "Wear the things that belong to you the things that do not make you feel like a stranger to yourself." Columns have been written about Mme. Poiret's gowns, one of which is described as shapeless as a slip, yet falling in lines of perfect grace as its wearer sat. stood or walked. The robe is of cream-colored brocaded silk, gathered around the bottom and extending several Inches on the floor. Kimono sleeves reach the elbow and the neck Is cut In a low oval. An Oriental turban forms the headdress. With this costume Mme. wore huge pearl suspended on a green cord around her neck. , Stories of boots that are to be worn DR. THOMSON'S EYE TALKS (TALK NO. 181.) Cheap Glasses. There are good and poor qualities of glasses as well as in other goods. And, too, as in all other goods, the cheapest are the most expensive in the end. They distort the rays of light, disturb the harmony of the nerves and muscles and do the eyes a permanent injury. Simply because some people have been able to use cheap glasses all their lives, and still see, is no argument in their favor. It is only because their eyes were remarkably strong to start with. With j?ood glasses, well fitted, the eyes would be preserved and strengthened. It would be necessary to change less frequently and the danger of eye strain, weakened nerves or cataract be almost entirely avoided. The only glasses that I handle are the best quality and best make. Every pair of lenses is carefully tested before leaving my hands. The prices are as reasonable as can be made for good good3 and good work. DR. H. A. THOMSON Not Open on Wednesday Afternoons" 301 South Michigan St. Southwest Corner Wayne and MJch.
