Do you know We’ve lmd EU3h an exciting time the past week or two. We’ve been opening'riur first shipments of New Hats. Alluring, simply doesn’t describe them —they’re so intriguing ... so adorable. There’s a feeling of poise about some, of graciousness and charm about others,—and then there are the bright little, quaint little, fly away sort, that make you want to give your chin a tilt and look the world in the eye. We’re making informal initial displays this week and we would like you to see. these first arrivals . . . why not come in Monday ? As you can see by the illustration above, height is the fascinating feature, and so it is of nearly all the new hats. They’re tall in the front with .an upward anc] forward swing to them. In the picture we have drawn for you, the hat is of Peach Bloom, in Ceylon Brown. It is very subtly simple. The only suggestion of decoration is a long wooden brooch with ’' two smart little ribbons. This brooch, and the placing of it,. shows the designer’s genius, it gives a last little touch to something really beautiful.
