that of wearing feathered
capes. One of these is Of
coque feathers of a deep
wine color, which she says is
ono of the most expensive"
things she has ever owned,
for she liked the color so
much, she right away purs
chased a lace dress, a hat
which I think is exquisite,
slippers and q bag to 60

she wore to the British EN-
bassy garden party Monday
afternoon.
At the Danish legation, the
other afternoon, she wore a
cape of sapphire blue ostrich
fronds which were laid on

slightly curled. 1t was a very
effective accessory to her
