One other popular style of large

extensively as a fur model. Very

I An Alsatian bow of rose velvet ribbon
with steel buckle spreads across the
back and harmonizes with the steel
! trimmed rose velvet rosettes on the
coat. In place of the geraniums short
feathers or feather rosettes are en-
ployed to cover the top of the mush-
room fur hats and to fill in the deep
curve of the brin.
With brim abruptly tilted, a large
hat in pale green felt virtually gives
the effect of a small toque. A wide
/ band of richly dyed sable forms the
very high crown, the height being ac-
centuated by ribbon that rises at the
top. Plastered at the side of the sharp

green ostrich tips cover the entire
space, while a shorter brim on the op-

A fashion which promises to be very
popular with the well-dressed girl the
remainder of the season is to have

turban of the same pelt. Built entirely
of the fur, very little trimming adorns
the hat, a single brilliant buckle or

or spangled quilts directly in front, or
in cavalier style at the side. Large

this way.
