Mme. Kahn and Mods. Kahn Sailing For London and Paris Via Rotterdam This Saturday July 30 K -S ■ /^ V- ■ -V ) Returning Home . . • m Six Weeks HEICHO, EVERYBODY! Upon the eve of our departure for busy London and gay Pai^ee we have an important announcement to make to the profession* We are not going to London and Paris for our health and neither are wo going for pkasure, but we are goiag upon a special trip that is going to benefit you— We beheve in being thoroughl} up to date and the Kahn Shop is right up to the minute with everything that the profession should wear on and off the stage, hence this trip abroad at this timfe* In London we shall personally inspect the new styles and import whatever may look right and proper for the American trade. The leading styles and designs of London^s smartest dressers will be given close range inspection. In Paris most of our time will be spent. What the Parisiennes typify as the latest and most modem will be imported to our New York Shop. What all Paris society is raving over in the way of ultra-fashions, extremes and those especially designed to meet the demands of the modest dressers will be brought to our American Shop. Not a single one of the foremost modiste establishments of Paris will escape our eagle eye inspection. We have been in the business long enough to know what the stage and screen ward- robes must have to create the impressions desired by those who have cre- ated dress standards. We believe in Amierica and have always been to the fore in creating distinc- tive and original styles, yet we fully appreciate the dash, swerve, lines and curves that the foreign designers give to their most approved models. What- ever design, whether American, European, Occidental or Oriental, we are going to have it. So determined to keep our New York Shop in perfect tune with the fashion rhymes of the world we are making an extended trip to European Marts where the modistes of the Old Continent compete in styles and designs. None are too fashionable, smart or chic for the American dressers and none too fancy or exquisite that we cannot import to your own wardrobe via our New York Shop. Mme. Kahn is devoting bar life to her ideals that are being inculcated into the growth and progress of the Kahn Shop. Neither she nor Mons. Kahn will leave any stone unturned in their efforts to make the Kahn Shop tbs leader of them all in styles both local and foreign. Although Mme. Kahn and Mou». Kahn are sailing for the other side of the Atlantic to arrange for New York importations of what is finest and best in all Europe for the American woman to wear, the New York Shop at 148 West 44th Street will be conducted in the same efficient and capable manner as heretofore with exp«erts inchaf ge who also are under instruction to cable us at our Paris Branch at 18 Rue De La Paix for anything that you may want before we return peisonally. Our New York Shop today is as finely systematized as any in the world. Its plan is not an overnight development but the result of years of careful en- deavor, study and a thorough acquaintanceship with the trade and the pro- fession. By keeping in close touch and harmony with the public seeking the nen'est, smartest and nobbiest of stage and srreen styles we rejoice that the Kahn Shop speaks for itself. The continuance of shop visitation by those who haw ioUdwed the Kahn banner will be appreciated during our absence and to those who may makv:! the Kahn Shop their future Mart we will cheerfully extend the hand of shop fellowship.
