Curls sweep back off the forehead up at the back, designed to take the tiara. Fow Englishwomen, as yet, have copied the old fashioned "fringe" Queen Elizabeth wears on her fore- head.

Emile, court hairdresser-he will dress the Queen's hair early corona- tion moming May 12-has devised a method of fixing coronets so they won't topple or slip. Several peeresses plan to wear clastic bands like those in children's hats, but Emile has another system.
