NEW SCHOOL OF FASHION.
MODEL HOUSE IN LONDON. STUDY OF BRITISH BEAUTY. COMING RIVAL TO PARIS. By Tcletrraph.—Press Association. —Copyright. 'Received 5.5 p.m.) Sun. LONDON. Dee. 20. The British Mode! House, for which Yorkshire, Nottingham and Norfolk manufacturers provided the capital, inaugurates a New Year attempt to establish a new/ school of fashion. It aims at making London the Empire's fashion centre. Mr. It aymond, the managing director, says that the chief purpose of the movement is to design fashions suitable, to British beauty. At present a British woman wishing to look smart tries to look | French and fails because, she hides her t distinctive characteristics, which are spiritual rather than physical. The British women, says Mr. Raymond, are quite as attractive as the Parisiennes, but they are of a different type. The Model House has secured premises in Regent Street, and is opening the only stock room in the world containing all British goods.
