THEY'RE THE 1916 MODEL SPRING BONNETS
BY HKTTY BROWN.
Now Misa Busy Girl if you'll
cease your Christmas shopping a
moment we'll introduce you to
your 1916 spring bonnet.
Yes! Spring bonnet is what
we said—they always bloom in
early December, you know,
though the public seldom sees as
much as a bun of spring milli
nery until February.
This seaaon, however, I made a
bold "drive" right into exclusive
workshops and armed with pencil
and sketch book captured some of
the best Palm Beach models—the
Miiiß we'll all be wearing every
where next February and March.
They are hat* the Fanhlun Art
league hoikU yon m autlimtlr
modela for the spring of 1016.
Evidently fashion has no favor
ites in spring millinery. There's
the wide brimmed sailor and the
brlmlesa turban, the big hat, the
lIUI4 hat, a smart chapeau to
frame every style of face-
No. 1, you will notioe, la a
tiny affair of black satin with the
barest excuse of a brim. A band
or rosen tops the crown and big
loops of rose color maline are
crushed softly down upon the
buds —a lovely hat for a spring
day.
No. 2 In ii satlor made of dark
green kid—and kid is to be popu
lar In millinery for late winter
and spring. There's a veritable
orchard t>f pear* and grapes and
berries spread about the crown,
and this fruit decoration is cut
out of white kid.
No. > is built of coarse brown
straw, with tower-likt points of
Thursday, Dec. 23,1910.
brown ribbon surmounting It.
This close-fitting shape and the
lofty trimming will be exceeding*
ly good style next ipring.
No. 4 is a typical Palm noach
hat and it foreshadows the popu
larity of the wide-brimmed
droopy hat to which the design
ers are paying much attention
Juut now. It is made of white
maline and bands of whits rib
bon. A Iwiid of whit* fox swftthen
the low crown and the stiver rose
adds to the cloud-like effect of
the white and silver bat.
