Hats topped with American Beauty and moss roses, tall and nodding. Hats wreathed with the new lacquered fruits and foliage. Hats crowned with high, jaunty bows or old-time picot-edge ribbons. In shape, they run the scale fromthe tiny turban and becoming irregu- lar-brim effects to large sailors, in addition to the new high-crowned hats. —and their colorings are beautiful, unusually attractive displays being made in the new rose shades, blue tones, browns and prunelle.
