Modified Sailors and Turbans Lead in Favor, ct a om ett of * iant and distinctive note of fash- ion, all of them typify the long lines of artistic grace associated with the most creative designing The tailoring and materials are the highest character. Suits from $13.50 to $22.50 Suits from $23.00 to $60.00 The advance styles of millinery are arriving, and point to velvet and plush as the favorite materials for hats, with ostrich feather novelties a leading favokite. Burnt ostrich still continues as a trimming, and the long sft plumes bunched up in a sort of pompon effect are pretty. The sailor is modified slightly to crown, which is higher and the brim is a trifle wider. Sometimes the regulation straight brim is used, but. usually the added width takes the form of points and curves slight ly upturned. The tricom is a fav orite model. In small close hats there is the turban, * consisting some times of a simple crown without a brim. -Again, the brim turns sharp- ly back against a high crows, and is held by burnt ostrich feathers. or a flufiy ostrich tip. Some of the very smartest hate have the entire crows made of small coc feathers; an all white hat has the crown of these Jeathers, which pass into a close swirl resembling a soit breast or wing. The narrow brim is of white silk plush. These hats also come in colors with neo other trimming. A few hats have wide straight brime of velvet. and low soft crowns, and are wmade still more soft by long flued ostrich feathers curling close about the crown.
