In exactly what manner the Spanish cos
tumery of several centuries will be reflected
in the new French clothes we're not yet quite
sure, but the immense rufs and elongated
cuffs of white organdie and muslin which have
appeared on new bodices indicate that the
portraits Of Philip the Fourth and his con-
temporaries have already given inspiration.

by the ancient costumery of Spain. In the
light of this fact, it is strange that every
other country seems to have influenced Paris,
except the country of Goya.
In the sixteenth century Spain ruled the
world in dress. She has the credit of sepa-
rating the bodice from the skirt. Through the
centuries she has presented pictorial appeal
in costumery, through portrature and liter
AZURE.
Zuloapa's women on canvas continue to pre-
sent fascinating features in dress to the girl
in an American suburb. The white stockings
and black pumps, the small fan In brilliant
colors, the floating scarf over the shoulders,
the slightly full founce of lace as finish to
the costume from knees to ankles, are bits of
costumery that are not unfamiliar TO those
who know not Goya, Zuloaga or Scrolls.

II seems clear from the cables that have

lest fabric for showing the mark Of every
hard object she touches.
Gabardine will remain in fashion. Georgetts
crepe will have an unusual degree Of sue

sign TO which we are quite accustomed, will
be used for evening capes as a relief from
velvet, and lavishly heaped with petry. That
brilliant Egyptian blue so well beloved by
artists is shown In evening wraps or brocads

they were part of the soil.
Paris, however, will reflect in her new cos
tunes just enough of our military uniforms
to make them interesting to US. Her only
markets to-day are the two Americas and
segment of England, and it is said that she
has combined the Spanish and the North
American effect in her clothes, with only
dash of Russian.
There will be an undoubted Spanish in
fuence this season. The reason for this is
not political, although Brazil and Argentina
have filled the French dressmaking houses
for decades with their wealthiest customers.

The Need
Of a Brin

Artists will tell any woman that she needs
a brim to shade her eyes if she is over thirty
years old. This is an artistic axiom that is
broken by thousands Of women over fifty years
old, and yet it Is a safe statement by which
to stand.
The straight brim, which is reminiscent Of
the sailor hats worn by the Gibson girls, Is
usually unbecoming to every American ex-
cept a certain fragile type. Once we thought
it was symbolic of the American girl, be-
cause Mr.. Gibsons art led US into that belief,
but the truth is that the modern American
face looks It's worst under stiff regulation
sailor.
The graceful brim is the swirling one which
goes up or down, according to the features of
the woman's face. There is tendency TO
mako all brms dip over the eyes, although
Lanvin has brought out tho Napoleonic in
black satin.

1t is the most natural thing in the world that
the buoyancy, optimism and remarkable rise in
commerce that have been brought about in
Paris by the men who wear our khaki should
be reflected IN the costumery which the French
designers offer to American buyers this month.
1t is not overdone, so we hear. There were
enough American buyers in Paris during the
spring TO forewarn the French designers
against making clothes that incorporate mill
tary features with which the American woman
is over-famiiar.

New Hats Have High Crowns
And Broad Brims

TNHOSE miliners who suddenly jerked a
low crown into a high one, as one pulls
out jack-in-the-box, surely turned the
fashion in hats topsy-turvy.
There is nothing so irritating to the woman
who has bought low crowned hat as to find
that three inches have been added by fashion
and that what she possesses is as hopelessly out
of the picture as a full skirt in a season of
narrow ones.
There are women who are rebellious by
nature and by practice, and they continue to
wear the low crowned hat regardless OF what
other women do. They are often governed by
tradition, and not by firm belief that high
crown is unsuited 10 theirfaces.
Tradition and custom are two powerful fac
tors among certain women In the governing
Of their clothes. They wear certain things
simply because they've always worn them, and
they 90 in and out of the fashions with the
