The feather flowers are mounted on a slender tortoise-shell band, and arranged in a sitnit buncir which is. worn a little to the side of the part- ing. They may be in pastel 'shades, or are sometimes sprayed with sliver or gilt.

Bandeaux for the hair made of clipped feathers and twisted to a rouleat are as soft as chenillé.
