A Marie Alphonsine hat in tilleul trimmed with black.
with black satin ribbon. It will be noted that this is worn with a large low bun of hair, instead of the many curts upon which so many hats are supposed to settle and without which they would be naught. A hat for the be- tween-season, which is also shal- low and tipped well over one eye, ls, in shape, like a bread-trencher. On the border, where "Bread" and some wheat-ears would usually be carved, is ruching of picated rib bon. This cari be worn with a veil underneath the hat, instead of on it. The vell is actually put ou arat over the forehead, from which, being stiff, it stands out a little, and the hat is, adjusted afterwards. This is made of black" taffetas with ribbon to match. :
The allor is a universal shape and salon are also, file, though very well dissimulated. The or dinary sallor has a more or less: straight, smallish brim, raised per- haps a trifle on one side.

The Breton sallor turns up so much that it looks about to fly away. It is often edged with a colour and has flowers or a bow tucked under the most nyaway. parf of the brim as Hason between hat and head.

For high summer, where trees and grass are involved. the big rather dat hat is another peren- mial. With propellers and gramɔ- phone records in mind, it is given la swirl by means of feathers cur- led and laid flat on the brim. It la worn much on one side, so that one eye hardly shows. These hata are also worn with evening dresses and together with long gloves, The two together take one back to the days of Yvette Gullbert.
Flowers are seen everywhere, They serve for both the tops and the underneaths of hats. "On the top they look like those circles oit small flowers for which glass con- tainers are ziow made. Underneath, the head looks built up into the hat with them. One hat with a tremendous tip has the whole or the upside covered with small flowers. By contrast there are some severe hats for the country and for wearing with sults. The former are felt almost exclusively, “ dip in front, and have stitching up the rather tall front of the crown, which tails off backwards. Other hats are little plates upside down and a tail loop of a bow standing up at the back. Veils are everywhere; indeed, hats are so dissimulated by them that most Parisians try the hat without them, first.
