crown of which was made by two convolu-

another convolution of heavy pink satin

On the same evening in the same place
Miss Janet Fish, daughter of Hamilton
Fish, was dining in black-spangled robe
having a white guimpe. yoke and sleeves,
topped by an immense round wide
brimmed black hat encircled on both sides
and the front by wide white ostrich plumes,
the brim neither fiaring nor turned up.
The frock was close-fitting princess robe,
closing invisibly and ending just above the
bust over the lined white lace guimpe. NO
straps extended up from this black robe,
which ended a line drawn from under
the arms around the figure the top BENG

q stock, and having attached TO 1t elbow
sleeves of deep lace hounces. There were
two of these f1ounces for each sleeve,
rather scant at the top, the lowest endlng
a little below the elbow and the upper one
overlapping it just above the elbow. The
lace or figured net was pailletted in rather
large but much scattered paillettes of jet

low the hips, where the leaf patterns stop
ped and loose spangles near together TRIM

On the same night also Nine. Emma
Eames CMrs. Julian Story dined at the
same place, the guest of Mrs. John e. Cow
din. She wore a round, almost fiat hat OF
white crinoline, small plateau arranged
In irregular folds, and having an edge per-
haps two inches deep faced with folds OF
tulle At the left were two aigrette or plrd
of paradise plumes, one black, the other
pink. This hat was set on so that her

was left unlined. and there were short,
close-ftting elbow sleeves ending in mar

The hats noted at two of the latest fash
ionable weddings are on the whole reas-
surfing, for many of the smartest-gowned
women wore other than the hats that turn
up and over at the back. Some of the
ha ndsomest and newest had decided brims
at the back, and in many instances these
showed only a little trimming under the
brim at the back. All wings on hats either
stand out straight or else tip downward
never up.
One lat of pink chip had a hive-shaped
crown, the brim was irreguiarly undu-
lated and rolled at both sides, and was as
wide at the back as in the front. AT the
left side near the front the brim was
caught to the crown by a large black jet
cabochon. The brim had standing up at
it's base two deep folds of black velvet, one
formed of four-nch black velvet ribbon and
the other of three-fnch. These were stiff
fened and doubled, the lower edges touch
ing the brim, with a quarter inch of space
between them, the narrower and lower one
being at the outside Starting from under
the cabochon was long and very full and
flaring aigrette plume in pink and black.
A large delft blue crinoline hat with
wide all-the- way -around brim that rose
and dipped slightly, but irregularly, had
two-inch crown that slanted outward as 1t
rose from the brim; the center top was de-
pressed perhaps half an inch from the brm
crowns upper edge. A twist of narrow
blue velvet ribbon was drawn tightly
around the crowns base and was tied at
the left side in a cross between chou and
bow, there being several loops and ends
and from under this bow rose three fat
but rather short shaded blue ostrich tips
two curled over on to the crown, one to-
ward the front and one toward the back,
both rising some two inches above 1t. The
third tip curled along the side of the brim
toward the back, but did not droop over,
instead the curled tip rested on the brim.
The bandeau was trimmed with blue velvet
ribbon and a cluster of shaded pink moss
rosebuds was fastened at the left side of 1T.
Another hat of the black chip was round
and only moderately large. The crown was
low and round, encircled by black velvet
ribbon tied in fiat bow at the left side
near the back. The brim rolled UP and
back little from the bandeau, the rim
curling over toward the crown. The ban
leau was covered with soft green velvet
ribbon showing a fiat bow at the left side
under the brim. while at the right side and
front, where the hat rolled back, sprays of
white roses and rosebuds with moss foliage
were crushed.
