coiffurs. its covering and .ornamen-
tations come IN for 4 good deal
of attention this sprinS ssuson.
Head.dresses and orn m en- to
reigned supreme throughout the
winter and in fact they stili con-
tinue to do 30 and are even more
predominant. At dances one sees
here and there = rose tucked among
the bobbed curls OF one brown
haired miss or q laurel wreath
about the dark head Of another.
Owing to the deinure simplicity
Of many evening gowns the dc.
mand for accessories has become
very great. n seemingly prosaic
person in q simple chiffon gown
may be utterly transformed by the
addition Of a wreath Of flowers
about the head and flowers and
buds trailing down the side OF tho
gown or a girdls Of flowers en-
circling the waist.
WHEN spring comes We think
Of buds. wood flowers and Der.
ries. And so It il natural that INC
head-dresses for spring dances arc
Of flowers. buds and berries. At
Emile's shop on Connecticut ave-
nue. there are the ioveiisst head
dresses for the sleek. weli-groomCd
couture Of the matron or the fluffy
bodied hair Of the miss. Dainty
pink rosebuds and silver leaves
combine to make one ornament
while another IL made up Of rib
bon and flowers. And typical Of
the springtime II one fascinating
one made entirely Of small berries.
One would almost look like q wood
nymph wearing II.
ZONES still continue on their
becoming way and when we have
almost decided that the comb an an
anornament In passe there appears
in the mode some novel comb to
make II more popular. Now It is
the givre effect, French word
that pictures frost on a wintry
morning. II In what the name I'm
plies. looks like a comb Of frost
and giitters in the night light Ike
myriads of tiny diamonds. HigG
combs Of the giittering substance
stand high above the head like a
jeweled crown. One would look
particularly effective on q sl,-k
brunette.
NOR does Dame Fashion center
all her interest upon the Golf
fure and the head-dress. for the
feet Of fashion also follow new
lines. The dernier cri of the mode
IA the anklet that has already been
acclaimed in Washington and IN
seen here and there on the hall
room floor.
Many influences have occasioned
the exotic effects that enter rho
mode. 1t would almost seem ~
though the fascinating ways Of
those South sea Isles were In .
way permeating our washington
atmosphere. Bushy. bodied hair.
floral sirdies. brilliant beads and
flower-wreathed heads; and finally
comes the final tribute from the
Tahitian bellies Of the isle. namely
the anklet- So"
Val Richter ID displaying. a large
assortment OF anklets. some plain
and many very elaborate. One
very attractive example IL made
Of jet beads bucielins on the side
and ornamented in front with q
large Jet cabuchon. From this,
sparkling Jet fringe hangs down
over the foot. This type might
well be worn with the scintillatlng
seQuin evening gown. l1tf
Another type Of anl<ist n mads
Of Jet with pearl chain pendanas.
There are also simple plain strap
anlSiets made to match the gown.
The anklet b worn on the right
ankle and the discriminating per
son never wears q very fancy slip
per with the elaborate ankist.
FANS stil continue to wave,
grscsfuliy shove. the tables At
smart Washington hotels. ct the
theaters. and in the ballroom. Ande
since the mode this season b =
sparkling mode. fans take up the
fashion edict and the result 10 the
