The Spanish Couture.

The Spanish couture is the fad OF
the hour. Recently Spanish fashions
have enjoyed tremendous vogue.
The full Spanish skirt is to be seen
in many of the new models and rich
Spanish colors are introduced. TO
achieve the Spanish effect In hair
dressing is comparatively easy. Draw
the hair back to the crown or the
head ana mass it high in big coils.
II is arranged simply around the face
TO form becoming frame, and huge
comb stuck in the coils either at one
side or standing erect at the back.
This couture is wonderfully becom
ing to some faces. The hair must be
glossy and beautiful to look well
when dressed SO simply, only the
slightest wave being used in The
Spanish couture If one can wear
ones hair sleek and straight, so much
the better, but if wave is necessary
for beauty, then use only the slightest
suspicion of a wave. 1t is so much
more attractive than a tight wave or
kinky curls. These are enough to spoil
any woman's appearance and the girl
who knows that real beauty is found
ed on simplicity does not make the
mistake of having her hair curled too
much.
