Fashion, they say, goes to ex- tremea. That is specially true of the new

Ideas for autumn and winter 1937, when Schiaparelli puts a shoe on a woman's head and calls it a hat!

The shoe is not, it is true. made of leather, but it is a shoe just the same.

As this designer shows It is mude from black felt, worn sole upwards with the toe pointing forward; and with a pink velvet heel cocked in the air by way of trimming. or to introduce colour note-take- it elther way you like:

But 1937 fashions introduce the snake dress. Tls its almost closer than a glove, is made from a dark green Recked with gold lamé, with a slightly blurred pattern.

The appropriate Headdress with this is one that rises 'high above the wearer's head and suggests a cobra about to strike.

THE FRYING-PAN HAT

Millinery this season is going to be a difficult problem.

Here are some styles from which - woman is invited to make her choice.

A "Jelly bag" model with a pointed crown;

A similar model with a rounded summit outlined with monkey fur tumbling about the wearer's cars:

Flat hats with long. beaklike brims;

Hats like frying-pans; Hats Hike saucepans, with wide brims or no brime at all;

Monkey caps trimmed with a two-foot qui stripped of its plumage;

-Fancyglengarrisa — decorated with a tuft of ribbons or a sprig of purple heather (the influence of the Queen's Scottish ancestry

keeps on cropping up);

Welsh hats with brims; Saucer caps with no brims; Hats with tall crowns" forked like

serpent's tongue and worn at an angle of 45 de- grees;

a

Others that look like nothing so much as half a propeller.

"VICTORIA REGINA" STYLES "Victoria Regina" seems to have exercised a considerable influence on fashion, including the use of. plaid fabrics for anything from evening dresses to gloves for day- time weaz

An 1889 fashion is applied to evening frocks.

Below swather bodice the skirt is drawn tightly round the figure. At the 'back a loose panel goes flowing down to form train with a bustelike effect. The skirt is ground length.

Skirts are held out crinoline fashion to sway and swing round the wearer.

Bodices are swathed round the

figure above the waist, shoulders are bare, arms uncovered,

FEATHERS OVER THE EAR

The appropriate headdress to wear with a dress of this kind is a couple of ostrich feathers at-. tached above the left ear, and sweeping downwards ΟΥΟΣ the shoulder,

In the early years of the cen- tury sults were trimmed with with military braid and to-day Parla is showing black or pavy blue frocks and suita trimmed with rows of mohair braid in different widths.

It is not only day dresses that have short skirta.
