Far removed from simplicity and re-
joicing in picturesque lines and mate
rials are the fashion tendencies that
predominate in millinery. Flowers and
fruits, ostrich plumes and ribbons in
every variety, are assembled and
shown on hats large and small. The
new millinery modes are charming and
in variety they are fairly bewildering.
But however much we are distracted
by the great number Of styles, of one
thing we cannot fail TO be assured.
There is little room or place in them
for plain, meagerly trimmed hats.
The most noticeable thing in the dis
plays for spring is, in fact. the number
of models which appear to have come
from designers who dare to be indie
pendent Of each other. But they all
seem to be fairly reveling in the wealth
of materials at hand, and are making
prodigal use Of them.
Three beautiful hats are shown here
that illustrate very clearly the vogue
Of picturesque millinery. At the CEN
ter is large hat of black horsehair
