Little Advice about (what else?) Fashion from Vanity Fair


Edith Head's Fashion Commandments

DON'T let your clothes be fitted too tightly.
Even a perfect figure looks better if it doesn't resemble a sausage.
Only bathing suits should "fit tight."

DON'T wear a date dress when you're arriving for a day's work at the office.
The dressy dress, the low-necked lacy blouse, the glitter sweater, all of the glitter category belong to after-dark.

DON'T be too different.
You don't want to dress like the herd, but you don't want to look like a peacock in a yard full of ducks. Being too much an individualist is not being well dressed.

DON'T feel that when you're going to a party you must look "dressed-up" ---
a simple dress is safer if there's a question of what to wear, and you will be much more comfortable simply dressed than overdressed.

DON'T be afraid to wear a becoming costume many, many times.
It's an old-fashioned idea that you haveto have a new dress for every occassion or party. Even if you have the money to do so, it isn't necessary. The modern approach is to change accessories.
