: 5eas WINTER FASHIONS. s..ss.,r,
1t is fairly dscided that felt is to he
+ the most fashionable, or, at least 1.-THE
D most commonly-worn material for bon
t nets and hats this Winter. These felt
I hats will, in fact, work an entire revo.
!, luton in millinery. The only wonder
/ is that, cheap, comfortable and pretty
| as they undoubtedly are, they. have not
, been thought of and adopted long ago.
} They are of all shapes and styles. though
: the prevailing modes are soft, with high
crowns with tolerably broad beims,
which, being without wire, are turned
up or turned down, as the caprice of
the wearer dictates, and fastened with
bows of ribbon, or velvet, or aigrettes
or feathers and jet, or by a bright-col-
ored birds wing. F .I's7eJ arn
Flowers are not so much seen this
season, as they do not seem to &c well
with felt, but plumes Of any descriD-
ton and color are worn. These hats
are bound around the edge with Velvet,
and have bias folds of velvet, around
the crown, .3s,fsttf,i f;,Fsoe 4eoer
There is. great variety in the styles. Of
wearing the hair. Ladies' with abun-
dance of hair discard false braids en-
tirely, and gather all the hair, save'a
single tress ON each side Of the foreheaas
into mass, fastened together low be-
hind, where it is tied in a short, thick
loop. For the street this loop is braid
ed, as the loose hair would soon be dis
heveled if worn in the open aira ) The
tresses in front are brought in large,
soft waves across the forehead, and fas-
tened behind by a short strap made of
the ends of the tress. The style is
most becoming for ladies who have the
low, broad, Greek forehead. sa4s,3
Ladies who have not much hair of
their own retain high coiffures. Finr
ger-puffs are massed t0er the top aud
back of the head, and soft loops are
added behind, SO that while the couture
towers high above the head it is also
low behind. aIsp:s,,tg
Ladies whose hair grow thickly about
the ear and neck display its luxuriance
by combing it upward to mass Of soft
puffs or crown braids, over which droop
two small, short, feathery ourls. gf
The head-dress, whether it be clus-
ter of flowers or downy mara5out feath-
ers with heron's feather aigrette in
the center, is now set directly on top.
on the left side, or quite in front, but
not low behind. srs ...5
The chatelaine braid and the low
plated Catogan loop are worn in The
street. A crown braid is worn with the
chatelaine, bow of ribbon or of twilled
bias silk ties the Catogan. A fllet of
black velvet studded with jet beads is a
simple and pretty ornament when worn
around massive braids.
