THE QUEEN'S COLOURS
Each of the women members of the Royal Family is unofficially credited with a'favourite colour, but since the winter began they have rather upset calculations in this respect by wearing shades that have never before appeared in their wardrobe, states a writer in London. The Queen, for instance, who Aas always been faithful to grey and §>lue at this time of the year, is looking attractive at various social functions in an ensemble of the softest cinnamon brown, and another of peacock tone. As she invariably chooses velvet for daytime wear, and has little hats to match her coats and frocks, tho effect is very becoming. The Duchess of Gloucester bas changed from greys and paste] tones to clear blues which she can wear well. Hats of striking shape were included in her trousseau, but it is noticeable now that she is choosing small bonnet shapes and brimmed models which frame her face.
