Summary

British Pathe synopsis: "Paris has not had too much sun this season to think about sunshades, but with that true feminine instinct, she has realised that pretty frocks are enhanced by their judicious use, even at the exhibition" M/S of three women in elegant tea dresses sit on chairs in the open air. They hold parasols. Closer view of the women. Behind them stands a man on whom doves are perched, he seems to be feeding them. The girls walk towards him. "Beauty everywhere - " The women walk through the exhibition. They pose beside a rather modernistic fountain. The camera follows them as they pose at various spots. "Filmy feminine clinging fashions - romantic backgrounds - what more does Eve wish for?" The women walk in front of a large castle-like construction.
