Show I ;''-" SEEKAOWEN AT THWSOH H Star of "Woman Awakening" Never H Wears Himie down Twite B uu Screen, H Probably no play produced nt tho H Trlatiglc-Flno Arts studio In recent H months 1ms given a star such nn op- H jvortunlty to display tho variety of H &er wardrobe as does "A Woman's H Awakening," tho drama In which H Sccmi Owen stars tinder tho direction H or Chester Wlthey. H Uullko tho majority of actrcssos, H Hiss Owen does not draw upon tho H rapplles of the wardrobe department H f tho Ftndlo, but prefers to wear her H itirn private apparel. Shu designs 1 siost of her costumes and has them B xnoilo of such serviceable material H fhat sho can wear them In prlvato H life after they have been used In the B. studio. K Sho makes It a rulo never to ap- year more than onco In tho samo M rown except In case that no ndvant- H age may bo gained by a change. When H tho has accumulated n larger col- m Section of garments than sho can H And use for, she gives tho surplus H to tho extra girls. H "I find that when I wear gowns H 3 hat liavo been made for mo and H TrUcli give me tho feeling of pos- M session a sensation hard to describe, H Votf&lecldedly comforting they In-H In-H ' aplru me with self confidence and as- 1 jnninco that I cannot enjoy when I wtar costumes that are not my own L and with which I am not familiar, H' 1 like to bo sure that my gowns fit B jtie. This is a trlflo more expensive H ittitiietlmes, hut I think It pays In H eho long run. I rarely have gowns M made for the screen that I cannot uso M in private life, and when I do I usu- m ally can dispose of them to costum- M ri who will pay approximately what H ilicy cost me. I am an average sized B Toman and have an average figure, B no iny gowns are not hard to sell to B ?rtfesional dealers. This, of course, pij applies only to tho costumes I am pij not able to uso for prlvato wear. piH "When I get too many party gowns or PlH lit reel dresses I sort out what I de- Plj sire to keep and givo tho rest to the pij aitra girls. I also follow this cus- PJI torn with my hats and coats. Thus piB 3 am able to make quite a number of piB rlrls happy with gifts of clothing in PJB abo course of a year. Often I gtvo piH away gowns that have been worn but pil a few times, but I cannot wear thorn piB all, and I like to sco others enjoy piB Oicm." |
