Partisan models
Perhaps the most English. In its pic
turesque type, of these three hats IS TIL
lovely Charlotte model of leghorn trim
med with grape clusters.
The coloring Of this hat is as strikin2
as the perfect grace of the lines. TIL
wide brim droops at one side. apparently
under the weight of the grape trimming
At the other side it seems to lift itsef
to reveal the waves OF hair beneath
The grapes-made OF slk-are in shade
of pale green. mahogany and reddis
violet The leaves are silvery green an
the velvet twisted under the grape
against the creamy straw is in the viole
tone. On the upper side of the brim is
frill of cream lace
Another Of these hats, a superb Su-

wonderful ostrich plumes-plumes THAI

as they move reveal fiery. coral-colored

The hat is a graceful model of old gold

designed to accompany a theater coat
of old gold fabric trimmed with white
venfse and gold lace and lined with coral
colored satin.
The fOwer-trimmed hat Is a garden
type. for wear with lingerie frocks in
the afternoon. and is girlishly simple In
line. yet rich enough for young matron :
wear. The straw is pale pink chip. the
huge bow at the right side matching In
color. The brim is caught back at the
left Of the front and over II trails the
rose and orchid trimming which almos
covers the crown. This hat is in shade
OF rose and delicate n1auve. The Who'll.
style Of the hat suggests grace and charm
rather than dash or daring. and the
deep br-im casts a most becoming shadow
over the face
Essentially French in type is the dash
ing marquise hat with It's upturned brm
and aigrette trimming sweeping off at
one side. This hat is also intended for
wear during the coming London season.
1t has not the simplicity and charm of
the f1ower-trfmmed garden hat. but 1t is
infinitely more clic-and. what Is more.
while almost any woman might venture
to wear the shady. lowered picture hat.
This gay little madame marquise cha
peau Is a Reboux model and is all In
black and white. the hat itself being of
white panama straw. though little of it
Is visible for the dashing brim which
turns UP sharply at the back and front. is
faced with Irish lace laid over black vel

edge Of the lace disk as well as making
an effective background for the handsome
pattern. The aigrettes are black and
white. With this smart hat is shown part

sewed with rhinestones and jet. the chif-

and flesh pink chiffon crossing the open

rings Of diamonds and emeralds are a
feature of this stunning costume.
Many Of the large picture hats intended
for fete and restaurant wear have long
streamers at the back. and the woman
who loves graceful effects will delight in
these streamers, which are almost invari-
ably becoming. Velvet ribbon is usually
chosen for streamers. and the long ends
OF the ribbon are knotted together Just
below the back OF the neck. the TWO
streamers falling together over the shoui-
der or one being brought over the snouL-
der and the other trailing down the back
These long hat ribbons are not worn on
street hats-any more than ceremonfous
trains are worn on shopping costumes or
sashes outside Of tailored coats Ihey are
