THE LINGERIE HAT

The newest of all lingerie hats is that
of pale shade of blue or pink, usually
of both-the foundation of one color.
embroidered in motifs or in an all
over design in the contrasting color,
with perhaps a bow of ribbon TO EN-
phaSiZe the color scheme; or one of
those new plumes-pale blue, with the
edges the palest tint of pink all the
way round.
Besides feathers. the use of flowers
upon lingerie hats is new, and wreath
like trimmings of tiny June roses and
fOrget-me-nots nestle against a snowy
background, or a bunch of little daisies
is perched up under pale blue brim.
The colored hats-f so delicate a tint
can be called color-are exceptions
Most lingerie hats are white. But
they're mighty pretty exceptions and
make the prettiest sort of a setting
for white dress. They follow pic
ture styles even more than actual lin
gerie styles.
Stretching the embroidery on the
light frames shows it off much more
sharply. SO that prettier and prettier
embroiderieS are in demand all the time
sheer stuffs embroidered in eyelet de-
signs being most popular of all
Linen-a heavier weight than hand
kerchief linen-with bold. open designs
makes up one very stunning hat, with
rows and rows Of tiny frills for a brim
facing instead of linens.
Some of the hats which properly be-
long to the lingerie class aren't lingerie

Native cherries begin to make their

is SO brief that instant advantage must
