trimmings.
Large hats have towering pyramids
Of feathers. while tiny bonnets are
trimmed with masses Of plumes at

To cause a plume To wave careless
~ away from the hat, as if detach
I'd, seems to he the desire of all de-
signers. Other hats show plumeS
wound modestly around the crown.
Paradise plumes dyed or in natural
color appear falling in foamy cas-
cades from the side or back. These
graceful plumes are used in great
profuson upon headdresses for evening
wear

The family flushed tulle is much softer
