The winter hat was dark ani the Easter hat is light. Seen together, one following the other directly, the hats of Easter seem too bright for good taste, but later, when all are wearing them, and the colors are rivaled by the rays of the sun, they will seem nore too loud. The Hat of Black. The “nice”hat is said to be the black bat, and, 1 se who share this opin- fon, who think that every hat should be more or less black, there are millinery at- tractions that will tempt the dollar forth in short order. in bla ine and and white, hats with tops ¥ are trim- nost marvel- nd at the back e.

There is a tendency toward the three- cornered hat and the brim of the hat is turned sharply up at one side and draped with bands of velvet ribbon, to give the effect of a tri-cornered hat, tied with gold cord. This is really pretty and very chic. Unfortunately the hat that turns back from the face is not becoming to many and cannot be worn by those of more than a certain age. Once past the de- butante period, or once over one's first two seasons, then the bhat that turns back from the face reveals too much and gives a mature look to the brow, whica Is not to be tolerated by those of good aste. On_the contrary the very large hat should not be worn by very short people or by those with very small faces, The immense hat is reserved for immense height, and, as the inches of the girl di- minish, her hat should grow smaller. The small, compact toque is the prettiest for la_petite The Easter hat in certain of its- vari- eties will be turned up at one side. The bats that are turned down in front and turned up at the back will be seen, but by far the most popular hat will be the one that has its side tilt. The perfectly round hat, with its small curling brim, is made to tilt by an arrangement of bandeaux. Trailing Trimmings. The trimming under the brim will trail upon the hair and it will be, if not a bird trimming, then flowers. The bird that poises under the brim is very pretty, but the flower treatment is best for spring. The chiffon scarf is good under the. brim and is very graceful as it sweeps the waves of the coiffure. The tri-cornered hat is out in a new style, which threatens to draw a certain clientele its way at Easter. It is turned up at each side and at the back, so that the front comes down low over the fore- head in a point. A Jovely hat of this description was boxed and marked with the name of Mrs. 0. H. P. Belmont. It was in yellow satin straw, 50 open as to need a lining. It was in braids of most fancy design. Soft pink chiffon peered through the open meshes. de, so that the appearance of & vef], all dotted, or squared or open meshed —the show vell—that falls from the hat brim over the face. It {s merely a matter of arrangement, the wearing of these vells, and not so very difficult when one becomes accustomed to handling them. Mrs. Admiral Dewey wears two veils always and so protects that complexion of which she is so proud. The Easter muff is a thing not to be for- gotten. It is a soft, chiffon like affalr to be carried Baster day and after Easter until June. The peopie Who are planning a Newport season, Mrs. Stuyvesant Fisl and Mrs. Duncan Elliott, and the -others who lead the society of matrons, have sev- eral ordered in thelr coming wardrobes. Mrs. Fish is to have a muff of blue chit- fon, very light and untrimmed save by flounces. of the chiffon and pufiings with- out number of the same and layers of lace, Such an immense muff as it is, very flat, very déep and at least half a yard wide. It is light and will weigh nothing carried in the hands, and that it makes a pictur- esque ornament none will deny. The Easter muff may be of fur. There is the coronation muff, which shows er- mine with carnations, and_there is an- other coronation muff of minever and lit- tle roses. The middle of the muff, the muff proper, is quite conccaled under the bank of roses that lie upon it. At each side roses project, dancing at the end of their long stems and making a lovely bou- quet. Natural and Artificial. It i very ingenious to select roses that can be easily matched in the natural blooms. Then one can add half a dozen natural_roses to the artificlal ones upon the muff and be elegantly gowned, indeed. They say.that the muff will be carried on the hottest of August evenings as a plazza accessory, just as the ermine shoulder cape i3’ worn all summer and the fur traveling cape. Be that as it turns out later, certainly there are enough xm,ms making now to insure such a re- sult. The Lady Lenox long cloak is a lovely thing. In deep blue, of very light weight satin cloth, it 1s trimmed down the front with a jabot arrangement of red silk, edged with white and embroidered in black dots. This mixing of red and blue is much seen and has the merit of.look- ing well always, for no two colors mix better or stand the climate with more Spring cuffs are wide bands much trim- One cuff is half white satin and 1t is banded with black velvet ribbon. Another cuff shows an up- per part of green and a lower part of their wearing properties. Flowers, always the-emblem of spring, this March and April in There really seems no limit to the number of ways half black satin. flowers are treated. One of these is quite deserving a place in the highest art gal- lery of dress records of this century as an artistic achievement. The fabric, or the foundation upon which the flow - treated, is a blue satin of high fi A yard of Spanish lace is purchas the flowers are cut off the lace. There are Spanish laces that are very coarse and that show big open roses. This not the true lace of Spain, but it is the color of Spanish lace and feels like it, the same satiny touch and the shiny outside; so it passes for real Spanish. After the flowers are cut out they are appliqued under the satin at short inter- vals, and the satin is cut out on top of the lace, or over it, leaving the raw edge of satin on the right side. With a needle now, an embroidery design in white sil: is used, so as to outline the flowers. There can be a cat stitch of silk or a more fancy one, the object being to se- cure the lace roses well In place. Around the whole there is now worked an empire wreath. Or a little lace can be sewed around the whole, to look like an empire design. This fabric is used for the over- dress of an evening gown and for the bodice. In employing so delicate a material, an one that Involves so. much handiwork, there is an opportunity for ingenuity. Th underskirt can be long, but the overdress need not be so lengthy. It can fall just a little below the knees, to meet the flounce which is on the drop skirt and which be- gins to billow out just at the knees. So with the bodice. The fabric need be used only in the yoke, while the vest and remainder of the of something else, usually of the drop skirt. he handsomest of gowns handsomest It is time for t umbrella.
