True English fashions will be a feature of the Paramount Picture, “Ixmdon,” starring Dorothy Gish, as this picture was made wholly in England by Paramount. British traditions, customs and styles are faithfully depicted, and the picture breathes an atmosphere of Britain, One sequence pictures the star witix her dogs in St. James’ Park, one of the Royal parks and the fashionable promenade, and the costume worn on this occasion is typically English. A tailor-made of small black and white check tweed consists of a

coat, having one pocket only and a deep yoke, worn with a lap-over skirt. The flap of the pocket is fastened with a large pearl button and tailored buttonhole. The same fastening is used for the front of the coat, two buttons being need. A distinctive touch is added by a large artist’s bow of wide black ribbon and a black velvet tam o'. shanter, worn in true artistic fashion. Smart black patent leather shoes and white stockings, with short kid gloves and a black patent leather purse, supply the finishing touches to- a very smart t.ailleur, the correct costume for promenading in the morning in this part of London.
