New Veil Changes for Milady
Face Covering Lends Note of Personality and Distinction^—Adds Completeness to Outfit. When an attractively groomed woman adjusts her smart-looking little hat at a certain angle and fastens over It one of the clever new spring veils the effect is ravishing, * Personality and the final note of distinction may be expressed in the mere cobwebby substance of the velL It adds a completeness to the simple tailleur and street dress. After a strenuous day of shopping the woman whose small street hat is snugly veiled returns home as neat and trim looking as when she left. It is generally understood that the street veil is not appropriate in the evening. More and more, however, the American woman is appearing at the restaurant and theater in her severely tailored suit or gown, with her closefitting toque nicely veiled- And she harbors no qualms as to being correctly dressed- * In fact, the latest fashions are showing the more elaborate hats with veils. For instance a charming wrought creation of black tolle and silver lace appeared in a bent at the theater. • The fair spectator watched the play from behind a thin suUe veil, whic was extended from the crown of the hat. just beneath the hoee—much as. the oriental lady is veiled. And, by the way, there Is a decidedly oriental touch to the hats shown this season. Hardly a tolle hat Is shown without toe cirop oi
Another gay little model hat was seen in one of the smart shops of Interwoven ribbons of blue, gold and browns against a horsehair brim which is satin threaded in gold squares. There! is a gold ribbon around the brim and! from this a short brown tulle veil is extended. A hat of black horsetylr with a low crown banded In black satin ribbon, tilts at the back, and droops under a beige lace velL Many of the new veils are edged prettily and hang loose and full. Some are close fitting over the face and long and flowing down the back. In fact there is a style of veil for every face; heavy flgurep, French dotted and exquisitely fine meshed veils are equally attractive In the. new spring collection. - : - - -
