The late spring and summer hats vie with a garden in the riot of colour they present. Flowers are here, there, and everywhere—on the brim, under the brim, at the side, the back, the top. Here are several attractive examples. The large-brimmed, flat-crowned hat at the top is trimmed with a simple daisy wreath and has a fine veil overlapping the brim. This type of hat is now worn straight on the head. Next is a model whose high crown is entirely composed of gay flowers. The velvet bow at the front is in some colour which matches the costume with which the hat is worn. The forward-tilted hat held on by a veil tied at the back is decorated by a large bunch of freesias and violets. The Spanish hat tilts well forward and has a mass of different flowers, all small, sewn on a net over the back hair. The veiled and pointed cap has a wreath of pale yellow roses across its back edge.
