HAIR BANDS ARE IN DEMAND

Worn With the Popular Bcster Brown Coiffure, and Also With the High Psyche Knot. Now that the mammas are wearing the Buster Brown coiffure, which is not a bowl cut at all, but an imitation, marcel waved, with long ends concealed, the hair bands are having a splendid sale. These bands are also worn with the high Psyche knot, which does not stand upright, but rather stands backward from the crown of the head, giving a long line from the tip of one’s nos. to the tip of one’s coiffure. While these bands, coming directly across the forehead, were designed for the Castle clip, they have been adopted by women who yearn for something new. A one-inch band of black velvet ribbon is used, either plain or jeweled, the latter studded with tiny flower designs in brilliants. Others, considerably wider, are of silver filigree and give an oriental effect that is very good with the high Turkish girdle and the skirt that is so turned in at the hem and attached to an underlining that it gives the effect of baggy trousers. Orosgrain ribbon is used of any color one fancies and is set with colored stones If you have an old Spanish necklace with pendant it will come in nicely for a hair band. Because of its weight it is best to attaeh it to a ribbon. There is a threat of puffs returning, worn across the back of the head, from ear to ear and very low. The front of the hair is worn plain after two “bare face” style which prevails.
