Men's Hats Join The Charcoal Trend
By GORDON HUDELSON
BY GORDON HUDELSON
the thing as far as men's hats go this spring. While not differing radically from last year's models, dark colors will predominate through most hat styles this year in charcoal tones of tan, brown, and green.
The dark trend is due primarily to the fact that dark shades will predominate in light weight coats and slacks this spring. Matching shades in hats and suits has been an increasing trend in past seasons,
The charcoal hat trend has been advancing with each passing season, say clothing dealers, and will reach full bloom in this year's styles.
The position of the small bow on the band has changed from the side to the back of the hat.
Narrow brims will also predominate this spring, in some cases down to 21 inches.
Some felt hats in light tones will be seen along with heavier straw hats of the coconut and panama variety in shades of pink and black.

Along with the change in women's clothing styles which is taking place this spring, hair styles are also changing.
Last winter was the beginning or the new look in hair styling. The short boyish hair styles which had evolved from the poodle cut were beginning to be grown out.
The trend was definitely started toward longer hair then because when a large group of women decide to go through the process of growing out comfortable short hair styles, especially with spring and hot summer on the way, something is happening. It also takes a lot of fortitude to grow out a shingle cut. No one likes that shaggy dog look while it is growing out.
The demand of the new hair styles is simplicity.
Many hairstyles on the campus are indicative of the new type. Some of these have the hair parted in the center with soft waves in front, on either side of the part; parted on the side with a slight wave on one side, or with no wave but curled only slightly on the ends. All of the new hair styles require only slight curl at the ends of the hair. The simpler the hair style the better.
One which will be popular this spring is that in which the hair is brushed softly off the forehead, to the front, and back again. The result is graceful and simple S-shaped curves which frame the face.
for leisure wear will also be popular this year.
Porkpie hats in lighter shades will be with us too, but in fewer numbers. Higher crowns will be the most noticeable change.
These style trends will probably prevail for a number of years. Men's styles, say clothing dealers, are subject to slow change with ew radical designs.
Color Adds Stocking Zest
New York — (U,P) — Cheesecake has a bold new book
Marlene Dietrich and Betty Grable helped to make the American leg famous. But the hosiery industry has found it takes more than an international reputation for a well-turned ankle to stimulate stocking buying.
As a result, several manufacturers have taken action which the conservative female will call drastic, shows what reaction from the American.
Stockings for spring and summer will be in the colors of the rainbow, and with more decorations than usual we worn since the clocks of the 1920s.
Take the decorations.
They've been moved from the side and back of the leg to the front. Some will show only on windy days, for one manufacturer has added decoration only at the welt, or top, of the stocking. These trims include cherry blossom or heart pattern in deep pink or blue on pastel pink or blue stockings.
Another maker has a wardrobe trio-hisery for casual, daytime or dressy occasions. All have a jacquard pattern in diamond-shaped design in the instep. In the case of those for daytime and dress, the pattern is in the same shade as the rest of the stocking. But the casuhs have a contrasting "tweed lace" inset in red and white, black and white, or blue and white, depending on a woman's color preference.
One company features cotton stockings in "hot" colors, and thanks in part to Gloria Vanderbilt, they're catching on.
Several women have copied the heiress-turned-actress who has been seen on New York streets in bright green or pink cottons.
If Miss Vanderbilt or any other woman wishes, she can have cotton stockings lined with contrasting shades of nylon. These reversibles come in avocado green lined with cardinal red, or red lined with green, black lined with natural, and red lined with blue.
