Excerpt from The Secrets of Distinctive Dress: Harmonious, Becoming, and Beautiful Dress Its Value and How to Achieve It
To know happiness we must appreciate beauty, and to appreciate beauty we must develop it Within us.
A great degree of happiness may be had from a study of dress and its requisites, for, as we study, observe, and apply, our inner selves will awaken to the artistic side of dress, and once awakened will develop to such an extent as to give us understanding and appreciation.
This book comes to you not as a Beauty Book, but as a study, and my earnest desire is that it will help you to see in dress beauty that you have not been able to find before.
An artist must know the principles of art to enjoy art or to make a success of it, and so must every woman know the principles of dress and enjoy dress to be successfully clothed.
