Tilt of the Hat
Berets like acörn cups sot flát on!, top of the head, are the latest form of headgear. The woman not so young may keep her berets, how ever, and look attractive in them if ahe wears them with only a slight tilt to one side. Hats need this tilt also, the shape being first pulled on well over the nose. The
