COLFEURES OF N-DAY.......

The modern individuality note is par ticularly noticeable in the coiffures of to-day. Although so much has been writ ten disfavouring the style of bobbed hair, and predicting its short reign, women at all events, those belonging to artistic circles continue to wear their hair crop ped. This practice is followed by gida in their teens, as well as by women of all ages, even to the matron with gray hair, Although French women do not hesitate to add lustre to their appearance with the aid of rouge and grease paint, and assume as complete a make-up for the theatre or ball as though they were going to appear before strong foot-lights, it is rare to see hair dyed or retouched with henna. They are content as a rule to fluff out their hair with much Marcelle waving so that, at a distance, they are inclined to look like Fijian "natives, whilst those with tendencies towards the altra modern plaster down their hair with unlimited quantities of brilliantine, brush it rigidly back from the face and bruscomb, race side pieces that

There was an abundance of light colours, jade green (the most popular of all the varied shade of green) salmon pink, light blue and maize shades pre- dominating amongst the sea of frocks, which were not either, black or white. Quite a number also of cream and ivory frocks were to be seen, fashioned in heavy satin and following along clasai- al lines, or else fashioned in lace or tulle when they billowed out into every known extravagance of flounce and pan- nier.

Many of the more elaborate gowns were made entirely of silver or gold tissue, and lent a striking, Babylonian note to the brilliant scene. These gowns

This, plus an easing of the hair over the cars and coils, or a knot placed low on the Laps of the neck are all that Fashion tolerates from her devotees in the matter of coiffure, for the moment. There is also a reaction in favour of the Madonas type of coiffure, the hair being parted in the middle, drawn down and round over, the ears and finished in a coil at the base of the head. This suits admit ably women with perfect features, and oval outline and that serene expression which painters of all ages, have ever associated with the Mother of Christ.. but, unfortunately, it is fatal to the many women, devoid of these attributes, who attempt it...
