set off it's airiness to advantage; a

a hat that has something of solidity
in it's lines. Compare the costume s
pictured in the illustrations of black

and you will realize what is meant
by this suggestion of balance in hat
and neckwear. The flower hat would
not be half so lovely with a fur neck
piece and worn with a tulle scarf,
the tulle hat would lose much of its
striking individuality. It is the very
airiness of the black hat that is en-
/ hasized by the rich fur below. it;
and the flower hat, you perceive has
enough 'solidity of outline to benefit by
the airy clouds of tulle below it. This

are made into all manner of fetching
scarves, collarettes, stoles and peler-
ines Cor pelisses) and there is a new
summer wrap of fur called the "cape-
let''-a smart little cape that falls
just short of the elbow and fails to
meet by several inches at the front,
strap extensions at the top meeting
and buttoning at the center front.
There are fascinating Pierrette cape
lets of black satin, which are cut on
the square, each point tipped with
ball of white ermine while a collar
fastened with a button of the white
ermine, finishes off the neck. With
these are worn the a1l-white tailored
hats which are the fad just now.
Chiffon Coats, Fr-Trimmed.
For wear over one-piece summer
frocks there are the most exquisite
(if the most impractical)- coats of
chiffon, bordered with mole or kolin-
sky. The frock shows through the
coat which has, of course, no warmth
though it makes up in smartness! A
coat of this sort, in full length, is of
sage green chiffon bordered with chin
chilla; another model is of dahlia red
chiffon bordered with kolinsky, and
there are white chiffon coats trimmed
with ermine, and gray chiffon coats
with mole. Satin coats with collar.
cuffs and border of marabout are
more practical (since they have some
warmth and hide the costume be-
neath). They cost about fifty dollars.
but are well worth the price if one
looks for a smart, elegant and useful
wrap for all summer wear.
