A Lady Who Stepped Off the
Steamer Last Week
came te Wanamaker's Monday, and purchased gowns
that pleased her better than any she had seen in Paris
or Londen. Se she told us. And her choice of gowns
was proof of her fine taste and knowledge of geed
dressing.
Anether lady net long age went from Ameiica te Paris
equipped with gowns bclected at Wanamaker's. And we attor atter
ward learned that her toilettes were se chic and se distinguished
that they oicasiencl comment even in Paris.
It is certainly no longer necessary for women te go abroad
te obtain the most leecnt and exclusive French fashion features.
We bring them te you as seen as Paris herself
knows them.
The costumes for daytime and evening wear new in the
Women's Dicss Salens are as smart and lovely as any one could
find abiead.
And much less expensive! Beautiful new street and after
noon toilettes, duplicating Paris originals, are priced from $75 up.
Lewer-priced dresfces, from ?27.50 up, give evidence in every
line of having been made where the latest fashions are no secret.
