THE STORY OF ARTIFICIAL SILK There will be many openings for designers. Already, there are designers of Artificial Silk dresses, in America, who receive £2,000 a year. Here is a chance for artistic men and women—a chance to design beautiful gar- ments that will be sold by tens of thousands. Several years ago, the manufacturers of Bradford opened a ‘ Temple of Fashion” in Regent Street. It was soon closed. It was a brilliant idea that should have been carried through—a brave attempt to compete with Paris. A second attempt should be made by our Artificial Silk manufacturers. They should establish a permanent ‘ Temple of Fashion in London, so that we shall lead in the matter of fashion, and not wait for Paris and Vienna. In America, courses of lectures on Artificial Silk are now being given in Universities. A ““ RayoN INsTITUTE ’ has been organized, which is carrying on a campaign to make Artificial Silk popular and fashionable. It holds Fashion Shows in the ballrooms of the best hotels. It gives talks and demonstra- tions and mannequin parades. It collects and distributes information about Artificial Silk. TIQ
