Pinned-ht Curls for Opera Coiffure

rs coiffures, as in other things, this is the day of some uncertainty. The diminutive demi-season hats, many of them merely elongated caps, called for nothing in the way of hairdressing except a small fringe of curly locks about the brow. Their day is waning and larger hats are replacing them. Just now those on the. sailor order (and these are legion), and shapes with curving and rolling brims indicate that more attention must be given to the coiffure, since more of it is in evidence when these brimmed hats are worn. „ - A coiffure designed for the opera and without referenda to millinery is shown here. It is made up of waves, a coil and many short light curls, and designed to show the art of the hairdresser, which must make the opera coiffure take the place of the art of the milliner, since hats are forbidden. The hair is waved about the face and neck for this coiffure, and parted at one side. The waves Me close to the head and Are eveiily and neatly arranged. The remainder of the hair is brought up to the crown and arranged In ft coll which forms a fouiidatfbnTor Short, soft curls that distinguish the opera coiffure. These curls are pinned in. That Is, they are not made of the litoral hair, bat are acquired of the

hairdresser or those who deal In hair. They are very light and easily adjusted and they stay curled. Their use makes the dressing of this coiffure an easy matter when compared to dressing a coiffure In which strands of the natural hair must be curled. Narrow bands of small pearl beads are used as a finish, wound twice about the head, Ip the style of the classic Greek hairdress. Bands of this kind, sometimes strands of rhinestones or narrow bands of plain velvet ribbon, look better than any other kind of ornament in their elaborately curled coiffures. The pinned-ln curls come In short lengths and are easily arranged Into puffs or fastened In so that only very short carls, or rather. ringlets, peep eat from the carls or puffs into which the baek hair is arranged.
