DRESSING FOR THE CAMERA.

FOR WOMEN WHO PHOTOGRAPH BADLY,

1

Now-n-days when visit to photographer is with many women more than an annual event, it is surprising that storm have not learnt the art of dressing for the camera, or come to realise the subtle difference between the clothes that photograph the best and those that. are martest in real life.

The following half-dozen suggest tions by a well-known photographer should be particularly useful to the woman who complains that her photographs never seem to show her real personality, for pribably this fault has lawn entirely due to wearing unsuitable clothes when the faces the camera,

First of all, never be photo- graphed in a dress just because it is new and smart. Indeed, the very fact that it is novel and striking ia a point against it. Besides drawing attention to itself, instead of everything concentrating upon the sitter's personality, its very fashionableness will date it ton ter- ribly in a year or two. Your face then will count for nothing, und people will, only comment upon your funny" clothon,

Thirdly, there is the question of

Hair plays an important part in a photograph, and when considering whether it should be shampoord be forehand, remember that ordinary sleek eka are sometimes inclined to look rather greasy in a photo- graph. Still if washing makes if fon frizzy, avoid doing so for a day or two in advance. Nothing looks so bad in a photograph as a sort of South Sea Island wig.
