REGENT THEATRE.

Esther Ealston has tha dual—one might almost say, the triple—role in 'fashions' for Women," now showing at the Begent, and in her part wears many. dresses. As the famous Madame da Glvray, the best-dressed woman in Paris, the beautiful star displays a wardrobe rarely seen even upon the screen. Raymond Hatton Is inimitable a3 the well-known lady's press agent. A wealthy and handsome count and a fashionable old roue also work themselves into the story, while there is a parade of beautiful women, all vying with each other for the title of Queen of Fashion. But if pretty clothes were to be seen In shadow, they were also to be seen hi the substance, for as a preliminary to the chief picture, a fashion parade was staged by James Smith, Ltd. Delightful spring garments wore displayed to the best advantage. Sports suits, frock 3 for morning wear, afternoon and evening gowns, were received with much applause.. At the close of the fashion parade, Miss Sadie Fawcett appeared in a replica of the dress which won renown for Esther Ralston, and received the "golden apple" from the hands of the theatre manager (Sir. Met. Lawton). Supporting films completed an excellent programme. "What! No Spinach " brought hearty laughter, and an amusing novelty slide entr'acte, "The Oculist," was entertaining. The orchestra gave selections from Gilbert and Sullivan as the overture.
