VEILS.
| Veils are worn again. Their mission, I however, is rather to serve as a decoration for a hat than &s a protection for the wearer's face. Most veils are short; some do no more than cover the eyes; others extend as far as the tip of the wearer's nose. That, however, is quite long enough to permit of a veil becoming a highly decorative object. Diamante embroidery is used to enliven the top of a net veil arranged in such a fashion that the sparkling trimming appears across the front of the hat. Another aspect of the veil is illustrated in a model, the short veil attached to which is enlivened with lines of gold embroidery.
