That is the word brought by
Miss Nancy Hughes. pretty and
talented young publicity woman,
who gathered in the fashion writ
ers on the various newspapers for
a tour of the new store yesterday.
STICKS TO LONG BOB
Miss Hughes, who has the cour-
age to stick to a rather long bob
for her flaxen locks in the teeth
of the high-hair mania, says that
the new coiffureS are not for her.
Apparently, she has no trouble
finding hats that are smart even
with old-fashioned hair-dos, her
Robin Hood felt in deep raspberry
red with a rakish feather being
most becoming.
A collarlesS tweed jacket
matched the hat perfectly, and
was worn with a pleated all
around Schiaparelli skirt in blue
gray and green plaid.
Miss Hughes expects to make
frequent visits to Washington, di
viding her time between the New
York and local stores.
