# MINER'S STYLE SHOW DRAWS LARGE CROWDS ## CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE. *The Butte Miner, Friday, September 24, 1920, p. 3. Continuation of the front-page first-night style-show coverage.* Miss Neita Parmenter appeared displaying an orange and black bathing suit from Murphy-Softley's. She wore an orange and black bathing cap and socks, with black shoes. The suit was of excellent style, and Miss Parmenter carried herself with unusual grace. Hennessy's presented Miss Marion Forvilly, a stunning model, in a grey jersey bathing suit, trimmed with pink silk lacing. Her cap and socks were pink and white, and she wore white beach shoes. After the bathing girls came the models wearing street costumes of the latest mode. Miss Orpha Briney, who represented Sheehan's, appeared in a gorgeous afternoon gown of black velvet with medallions of hand-wrought tin amber beads and straight back panel. She wore a handsome hat of metal brocade. An imported handbag of metallic cloth completed this stunning outfit. Weinbergs presented Miss Dreda Finley in a striking street suit of Negro brown, with a roll collar of nutria, and trimmed with bands of steel beads. Her hat, which came from the Cockrell Hat shop, was of blue panne velvet with a stylish off-the-face brim of copper metallic brocade. The Home Supply company was represented by Miss Lucille Lapp, wearing a modish pink pleater of circular waist effect, with a brown plaid skirt, and brown velvet turban, embroidered with gold thread. Miss Lapp made her second appearance for her firm in a striking afternoon gown of black charmeuse with smart apron drapery, and little puffs on the hips. Heavy blue and green ribbon added an effective touch of color to the outfit. Over this she wore a gorgeous coat of Hudson seal, with a cape collar of squirrel. A chic brown velvet hat with a silver top and blue and brown ostrich feathers completed the outfit. Miss Edna Gillis, representing the Murphy-Softley firm, was gowned in an unusually smart afternoon frock of black satin trimmed with steel beads. With this she wore a moleskin coatee with a squirrel collar, and the fashionable lace boa. An imported handbag of metallic cloth contrasted effectively with the rich fur of her coatee. Miss Clara Stork, modeling for the Gillis store, appeared in a new boiled seal coat with heavy roll collar. Her second appearance was made in another seal coat with collar and cuffs of mink. With both wraps she wore a smart sailor hat of battery plush, which came from Mattingly's. The school girls from Hennessy's appeared in kilted skirts and tailored hats and dresses, both looking very smart. Pretty Miss Lorna Dailey wore a navy blue serge frock, embroidered in Alice blue and yellow, with a knife pleated skirt. A neat beaver hat with a turned-up brim and streamers of grosgrained ribbon added a pleasing and youthful touch to the costume. The popular Peter Thompson dress was worn by Miss Nadine Randel, who looked very attractive and neat. Her black velvet tam-o'-shanter, that she wore with a jaunty air, completed her attire. The negligees created a riot of color and beauty, and the models carried themselves perfectly. Hennessy's presented their model, Miss Marian Forvilly, in a handsome mandarin coat of rose and white, with a petticoat of Peking blue and a dainty boudoir cap of white net, trimmed with rose ribbon. Mrs. J. O. Ford, also modeling for Hennessy's, displayed a gorgeous negligee of crepe de chine with a deep burnt orange bottom, gradually fading until the shoulders were pure white. It was heavily embroidered in contrasting colors. The dainty Dutch lace cap added the final touch to the outfit. After three dainty boudoir gowns the gorgeous dancing frocks were displayed. The charming model for Weinberg's, Miss Lola Cose, was stunningly attired in an up-to-the-minute imported dancing frock of sea foam green chiffon, heavily embroidered with flashing crystal beads. Hanging in loose folds from the shoulders down, caught, but below the waist, with a wide girdle of silver metal ribbon, it created a most bewitching and pleasing effect. Smart French heeled pumps of silver color added a final finish to this handsome gown. An error was made in presenting this gown, since Hennessy's placard was allowed to remain on the easel, thus giving the impression that it was from this firm, when in reality it was from the stock of the Weinberg store. Miss Lucille Staebler, representing the Murphy-Softley firm, wore an evening gown of pale yellow taffeta, with an overskirt of silk tulle, very effectively draped and caught up on one side. Miss Edna Gillis, also a model for Murphy-Softley's, was gowned in a beautiful imported dancing frock of lake blue tulle. A bodice of sequins, which runs down to narrow points at the knees, adds to the charm of the gown. Loose sleeves of tulle fall to the elbows, and the overdrape of tulle is fashioned over a skirt of satin. A gorgeous fan of burnt orange ostrich feathers added the final touch. Miss Gillis also wore a handsome evening gown of rose color, trimmed with ostrich feathers. Over this she wore a gorgeous Hudson seal coat. New gowns and different women's apparel will be displayed at the style show tonight at the American, concluding the exhibit for the fall of 1920. AIR SERVICE ABANDONED.
