All In The Wearing 1922

In dressing, in dressing
so that men may admire,
It's a matter of thinking
if you'd have them a winking.
In dressing, the blessing
is not all the attire,
It's the way that you wear the clothes
and bear the clothes upon you;
It's the way that you air the clothes,
It's all in the poise and pose.

If a dress is of this sort or that
It is all in the wearing.
If a fur is of sable or cat,
nobody knows or is caring;
It is all in the tilt of the hat,
though it's shabby and torn.
Men are attracted by manner and air,
cost of production they seldom compare;
It is never the thing that you wear,
it's the way it is worn.

If a dress is of this sort or that
It is all in the wearing.
If a fur is of sable or cat,
nobody knows or is caring;
It is all in the tilt of the hat,
though it's shabby and torn.
Men are attracted by manner and air,
cost of production they seldom compare;
It is never the thing that you wear,
it's the way it is worn.
