Marie's the noisiest of girls
That ever talked or sang,
Why, even when she does her hair
She does it with a bang.
New York, Nov. 14.-For a time
there has been a fashion edict that
the best of hairs should part, but now
there is no longer parting of the
waves Marcel ones), for fiat Pom
padours have sprung up again into
feminine fancy. Our hair still has
us by the ears, however, for never
peek from under cover are our au-
raj appendages allowed out in the
cold, cold world. The stiff undula-
tions of the Marcel wave, after wav-
ering for some time, are now firmly
rooted in favor and the very latest
coiffure shows the tresses drawn up
in Marcel waves from the nape of the
neck to the crown of the head, and
back from the face in the same fash
ion. And for these high brows whose
domes of thought seen startlingly
nude when the Pompadour rolls back
and leaves it bare, the bang is nee
sity and softening adjunct to the coiff-
ure that covers multitude of skins.
A style of hairdressing very popular
is dubbed the "Casque." 1t is di-
vision of the hair into two parts with
the right side rolled over the left and
tucked under and pinned.
Pins and combs for the hair are
aglitter with gems and jet for even
ing wear, but plain tortoise shell ones
are favored for day and street wear.
Shell pins with three or four prongs
instead of the erstwhile regulation
two-pronged hairpin, are the fad of
the moment, and much more adequate
as well as ornamental in keeping your
locks where they belong.
To acquire that fiat, puff of hair
which is being worn over each and
every ear, it is necessary to resort to
a sweetly scented and sticky hair
dressing which practically Clues and
holds your hair in a set place. Nova
days lovely woman is indeed all stuck
up.
From your head to your feet brings
into prominence the cothurn or The
slipper that is laced around the instep
and ankles with ribbons, in the en-
pire style. While the gay Partisan
wore these fancy foot effects all sum
mer, it is now only that they are re-
ally seizing upon American pedal ex-
tremities and adding new zest to the
tangos and trots. For dancing these
slippers come with fiat heels, but for
other evening and dress occasions CO.
thurns come with extremely high and
heels are being worn.
The most striking effects are those
with rhinestone buckles and lacings
of that black and white grosgrain rib
bon which has been so chic for sus
pending your watch or monocle about
your throat.
Sashes and slashes still seem to be
the order of the day. Sashes of every
have fair females on the
hip. The Toreadore sash is the very
newest. 1t is of heavily fringed black
satin and is knOtted lightly around
the hips with the fringed ends falling
one to the knee and the other to the
bottom of the skirt in front. Another
sash novelty shows the crush girdle
ending in the back, with hugh chou
of tulle instead of the usual bow and
ends. In most sash instances the ends
are no longer left free and untram-
meled to float in every passing breeze,
but are pressed into service to catch
up the many voluminous skirt dra-
peries.
AS for the slash, absolutely no
skirt seems to be w:1hout one, and in
dancing frocks part cLlarly it is case
of on with the dance let the limbs be
First you had your skirt
slashed on the side, now the front
slash is the thing, but the future
slash promises to be in the back, and
already several smart stage frocks
are shown slit up to the knee behind.
This putting the slash behind seems
to be a sort Of evening up for the
train that is now put before. This is
one of the wierdest of the many wierd
inventions of the fashion makers.
With the train having its beginning
