For 50 years Mrs. Schmidt has|' | | studied the history of feminine at- tire. Cromwell, she finds, shroud his women followers in ads- tere garb, but at his demise they went to extremes in dress which | far surpassed those Cromwell sought to abolish. Several French kings, | 100, banned frills and furbelows. H “All to no avail. Women will wear | what they please,” she says. “Neith- ¢r king nor modiste can change them unless they want to be chang- ‘ed.” A hundred dolls dressed by Mrs. Schmidt represent famous women of the ages. The gown of each, she says, reveals an individuality which Was a factor in the personality and achievement of its wearer. Cleopatra made her attire add to her voluptuousness, and with her physical charms she disarmed war- riors and statesmen. Catherine of Russia tried to and Eliza- | beth of England owed much of their ; prestige as monarchs to their digni- | ty of dress, Mrs. Schmidt believes, | and Louisa May Alcott and Eliza- | beth Barrett Browning in the fleld of literatute were distinctive for | their attire as well as for their ! writing. | The cave woman, with a raw fur | pelt wrapped about her, is the earllest exponent of costuming in| the Schmidt collection—and the | latest is “Trudy” Ederle, “Trudy finally demonstrated that ! woman's quality of endurance is| says Mrs, Schmidt. | “Her attire bathing suit, is symbolic of the modern girl, dressed in scant clothing which gives her ' bedy a chance to grow and to be- i come healthier.” | | | | | for crocheting.
