Marie Tours Talks Entertainingly
on Hats For the Winter.
Seemingly, we have never before had
so many styles of winter hats. There
are the large fat effects, broad and
with low crowns; the small ideas with
their dainty upturned brims the me-
dunn sized hats with the crowns be-
ginning to show a higher tendency,
together with fifty and one more
shapes, each one different from the
other. and no one more effective than
the rest. 1t is a matter of taste
purely a matter of taste and .becom-
ingness.
The broad brimmed, low crowned ef-
feet is, possibly, oze of the most popu
lar of ALL and it is indeed a dainty
form. The style has been in vogue
now for a considerable while, but it
still holds its favor most unmistak
ably
Even in this style, however, there
are innumerabe varieties. There are
the plateau effects, the double style
with the plateau underbrim, or may
be a plateau crown, and sometimes
both underbrim and crown are of this
plateau form. One novel and striking
form shows a triple effect in plateau,
each one of a different shade.
One Of the prettiest of all these
plateau ideas, however, is that of an
underbrim in the pSateau form of
scratch felt and the upper brim in
velvet. This is particularly striking
when the velvet is in a dark oclor
or black and the underbrim in light
tone, such as cream.
Trimming on such a hat is usually
quite simple and is confined TO the
lower brim. Beautiful purple grapes
with foliage to match adorn such a
creation most artistically. Others are
trimmed with a couple Of ostrich
plumes in the back, sweeping down
in the Mary Tudor style; still Others
show these plumss on the left side of
the underbrin. this being turned up
slightly. All forms, however, are ef-
fective.

Popular and effective as these
plateau styles are, the most pictur-
esque hat is unquestionably large ef-
feet on the Gainsborough order. This
style becomes almost any woman, and
in its most convenient form. The black
velvet body with ostrich plumes to
match can be worn with any costume
another point decidedly in its ravor.
But this year milady is not sticking
to conventional form alone. Not for
her She wants something new and

from what she has had, and that viii
be at once as becoming as the velvet
but yet a little newer. Beaver, al
though not new material, is receiv-
ing quite share of attention. In its
long-haired, silky form it. is just as
rich looking as the velvet and GER
tainly make a beautiful hat.
Aside from the plain black forms,
milady is going in more for two
toned ideas. The two-toned combina-
ton is a strong one this season, not
only in millinery but in gowns. What
could be more effective or striking
than a large hat of navy blue beaver
made on the Gainsborough order and
trimmed with ostrich feathers in its
own color and in light blue?.
The idea also has been tried of in
Producing more striking tones and
these are hats in parrot and Nile
green, and other affairs equally siren
nous in color. These, however. are too
theatric in appearance to appeal TO the
average wearer Then, too, they are
In shades that are not becoming to
most people. The picture hat for the
majority will always remain the dark
eolored affairs of black, brown or
lavy. Brown combined with tan is
mother combination that is quite pop
1lar and quiet enough to suit the gen.
aral trade.
Fur hats and hats trimmed with fur
are much liked this season by the up
.o-date girl. One form is a jacket with
iainty little fur turban to match. |
SQUIRREL is popular, while mink, too, is
much liked. The style of fur hat with !
iur scarf to match is another favorite. |
a dainty idea is to have the scarf |
and the trimming on the hat of the |
same fur, the body of the hat being of |
velvet or some other material. Thus |
ABSOLUTE sameness of the two is re-
ieved
Ermine and mink are particularly |
strong faVorites among fur trimmed !
nats. while squirrel is also seen to quite |
IN extent AS a rule this fur is rUt |
lround the hat in a couple of narrow |
oands Ermine and squirrel and such |
light tone furs are applied on black /
Or dark backgrounds while Light hats |
Ire trimmed with mink and such dark |
.olored furs.
An effective combination IS a light |
,olored hat in taffeta or gros grain, re- |
ieved by little silk and metal en- |
oroidery, and adorned with a couple I
lf bands of mink. There is just enough |
.gr about it to relieve the Eonotony, |
md not so much as to look like an al |
,ur hat Some really beautiful EFFECTS !
n black velvet are seen trimmed with |
mink, while black lace over wire |
rame adorned with this fur is a pop |
liar form.
Another pretty idea is combination |
# fur and feathers. One striking style |
ln this order shows a large round hat |
banded with gray squirrel and the |
crown adorned by a whole bird in vari-
olored tints.
The tailored girl does not want a hat |
hat is all fuss and furbelows. What |
he wants is dainty and plain effect, |
put withal one that has French slyle |
md grace in its every line. Such mats |
ire mostly small in shape and show |
lut little trimming. A single Quill q |
mall bird, possibly a wing, out no rib |
)ons. ornaments, or ostricn plunnes |
marks this type of hat.

Among the many novel and striking /
orms is none more daring than the |
lew square effects. The hat is fat and |
made with four corners. 1t usually

Sometimes it is banded with -ur anJ |
