Lane, Crawford's, The velvet hat in one of the many important new autumn fushions, and the ones I enw at Lane, Crawford's are faith- ful reproductions of Parisian im- portations Velvet is by far the most important fabric in the new mode, and attractive effects are gained with two-tond effects. Simple trimmings such as tiny bows and modernistio pins are used on these
hats because they are suficiently extreme in line to do without fancy turna
The new trend is so 'varied, and styles are so distinctive, that no matter what particular type you may be you can find something in. dividually suited to you. One very striking model is a hat--which follows the lines of the gay Spanish brim, which rolla up snugly on one side and turns down jauntly on the other; a large bow in peach velvet is placed very low at the back. Another model was a smartly made beret also of velvet in niggor brown, trimmed with a.torquoiso velvet bow. Incidently, I'm told this is the colour of the moment The evening cap is proving quite. popular this season, and many charming models in black silk straw are seen amongst Lane, Crawford's varied collection.
Whiteaway's are showing this week some of the newest handbage, The "Agnes "bag of soft leather. is a very tasteful model. It is pouch-shaped and features a link strap; they can be had in most of the costume shades, Fabrics are need for the moro formal type of afternoon and evening bags, and moire is seen in a number of new shapes. Envelope shapes are most popular and novel. They are made in every smart fabric and leather to go with the latest frocks, suits and cants; trimmed with effective jewels, these handbags are decidedly more than something in which to carry one's money and visiting cards. They've become highly important costume details, and when you choose your new ones you'll be as careful as to their colour, shapp sad type, as in choos ing your new bat.
