Many of the Paris designers
are making them, and Parisien-
mes are ordering them. High
hats certainly have the right
sanction. The only question is
whether we Americans will re-
ceive them with open arms. The
high hats run generally to two
types, those with brims and
those without. Brimmed hats
are of the Tyrolean type,
sports-like, with crowns height
ened by a fold of the felt, or
the hat simply has a high
crown that is creased, not too
low.
Brimmed Hats Higher
A good many women in New
York are wearing modified high
crowns - hats of the Tyro-
lean type with crowns just
a little bit higher than they
were last year. The hats do
not 60 far down on the head
they still show a good bit
OF the hair, but crowns are
higher.
Washington women so far
are slow to take up even the
modified versions, however.
Hats have brims turned up
high in the back, and a
slight look of height is
achieved that way, but crowns
remain low.
COSSack TOques
The really exciting hats, If
you consider them so, are the
afternoon and street types that
Paris is sending over. Schia.
pareIli does a semi osSack type,
very high in front. Cossack
toques are done by Maris Guy,
too, and there's no compromise
with height.
They're really tall, often
Squashed down so they won't be
too extreme. They seem smart
est when they are made of fur
to match the coat, or the trim
ming of the coat. Persian lamb
and galyac are the best furs.
Bows on Top
Then black groSgrain makes
another Marias Guy hat that is
something on the CoSSack type,
but draped slightly at the top,

For Role

A glamorous lady playing a
glamorous role certainly calls
for glamorous clothes, in the
opinion of Orry-Kelly, Holly
wood designer.
So when he was informed that
lovely Verree Teasdale had been
assigned a dazzling role in de
sirable," he set himself goal
to make the most glamorous
clothes ever worn by the chic
Verree.
That he succeeded is proved
by the enthusiastic praise &C.
corded his creations by the
wearer, herself.
Each costume change which
Mr.. Kelly designed for me in
the picture stressed the theatre
Cal and dramatic effect that
the character of Helen VALID
ridge wished to create pic
torially," said Miss Teasdale. "A
woman of great ambition, her
costumes were planned to &C.
centuate her determination to
be known as a beautiful and
Understandable footlight idol.
He designed the individual
gowns and ensembles to achieve
the desired effect"
One silvery satin ensemble
trailing gown and matching
coat, had five yards of silver
fox which banded the front
opening and edged the deep
cowled collar.
Outstanding among a group
Of negligees were a chincilla
trimmed shimmering metallic
cloth model with a skirt slit at
the side front, and frilly sleeve.
less one in chantilly lace, pale
flesh toned. A cluster Of fresh
cameliaS adorned the side fas-
tening, and struck a note of en-
gaging femininity.
Miss TeaSdale's blond hair
and fair coloring were becom-
ingly set off with a hostess
gown that she wore in one Sc
quence of the picture. OF wood
violet metallized tissue cloth,
its clinging lines were in sharp
contrast to the transparent high
necked yoke and long, tight
sleeves of crisp organza.
The most sophisticated gown
OF the collection was made from
an opulently colorful lame in
red, gold, green and silver tones,
cut in extremely moulded lines
with low decolletage front and
back, and tiny padded decolle-
tage straps.

Many of our friends, interest
ed in fashions, have asked that
we "say something" about skirt
lengths for fall and winter wear.
The length of skirts seems to be
q much discussed problem, and
It is a pleasure to give you in
formation that may be relied
upon to be authentic.
For general daytime wear,
dresses should be 10 inches from
the floor. This includes all
sports wear. In rare instances,
skirts may be shorter, but, If so,
it is for some special use.
For silk dresses with a trend
toward afternoon wear, the
length should be between Z and
8 inches from the floor.
For the cocktail hour, or for
formal dinner wear, dresses
should be ankle length, or about
l inch from the floor. If You
have your dress ankle length,
be careful to see that it is a
length that is attractive to your
particular wear. There is quite
a difference in "ankle lengths"
If in doubt, have your dress
made an inch from the floor.
The slit skirt for formal wear
should touch the floor all
around. If it is longer in the
back than in the front, it
should not be so long that it in
terriers with dancing.
If the skirt is tight, with
Sits to the knees, there should
always be a little drop in the
back-not a long train. but.
rather, a suggestion of a train.
Then, there is the extremely
new type of skirt adapted from
"crinoline days" which meas.
ures five or six yards around
the bottom. Such a skirt. OF
course, touches the floor all
around.

height.
Schiaparelli's hats are peaked
on top, and many of those from
Agnes are, too. Schiaparelli has
been making peaked hats for
two or three seasons. The new
ones are similar, but higher.
Agnes makes felt hats with
brims, high, creased, often
much manipulated. They can

it? Very different from any.
thing we've had, but suitable to
the new luxury mode, and very
flattering.
Height isn't considered youth
full, by the way, and that's the
main reason these new hats are
being adopted so slowly.

flat natural flowers.
Instead of a corsage, the
smart London debutantes are

flowers. Some are wearing
muffs of flowers.
1t is considered very smart to

Take for instance, a love seat
covered with black glazed
chintz quilted in orange, yellow
or even blue or green. Good
looking as it can be.
Chintz, whether glazed or
not, seems to be the favorite
material for quilting right now.
Sometimes q pattern is used,
but just as often a diamond or
block design is put on, and is
very effective.
For a really formal room,
you can use taffeta or uphol-
Sterer'S satin, have it quilted in a
formal design, and achieve q
beautiful effect. It's a marvel
GUS way of getting design in
your room without breaking the
monotone or two-color schemes
so good now.
Fits Into ANY Period
Quilting fits into the modern
mood nicely, and also goes well
with all the periods, including
classic modern. No need to say
it is right at home with Early
American, though it adds quite
a note of freshness.
Quilting is a popular at-home
pastime these days, though I
wouldn't recommend it if you're
busy, and want to cover all your
furniture with quilted materials.
It might interest many people,
however, to know that you can
buy packages ready to quilt,
with all the markings for those
beautiful satin or taffeta throws
that you've no doubt admired
and wanted, but found far be-
yond your means.
