Book of Etiquette - By Lillian Eichler Volume 2

Description:This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1921 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER II DRESS THE FIRST IMPRESSION The two most important guides to one's personality are one's appearance and one's manner of speech. Centuries of experience have shown that by means of these one may almost without exception get at least a general idea of the sort of person that lies back of them. Dress is the most important factor in the first impression.

Like advertising, dress should call attention not to itself but to the person or product which it represents so that people will say, not, "What an attractive gown!" but "What a lovely woman!" not, "What a well-dressed man!" but, "I think I should like to know that man." There is more room for originality, and by the same token for freakishness in woman's dress, and therefore the greater responsibility is hers. Her clothes should belong to her rather than merely to the era in which she happens to be living. This means that they must be individual but it does not mean that they should be outlandish. Again the golden rule of the Greeks: Moderation in all things. The attitude of a number of people is expressed in the old limerick: As for looks I know I'm no star, There are men better looking by far; But my face I don't mind it For I am behind it. It's the folks out in front that I jar. It is worth while now and then to think of the "folks out in front," and pity for them, if no other feeling, should...We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
