SAILOR HATS.
Just a word of some little sailor hats of tulle that have only crossed the Channel. These (says a writer in Country Life) have quite .appreciably deep crowns, but very narrow brims, and being entirely fashioned of tulle, mounted clear on wires, the lightness can re easily imagined. For the brim several loose folds of the tulle are used, and they are worn thrust well on to the head, so that the brim rests on the hair. For trimming, moire ribbon is employed, also gourmah mounts, and a mount .'"n which the osprey is shredded off its stem and so assumes a rather wild, fly-away appearance, albeit one of extreme delicacy, a further ingenious process giving a curled appearance to the tips.
