Spring To Bring New Bonnets With Old Gibson Girl Feeling
University Daily Kansan
For the many costumes with tiny waists and important sleeves, milliners have emphasized the Gibson Girl feeling with a wonderful variety of crisp new sailors.
Hats, new for spring, come ready to blend with the entire ensemble. $
There are large sailors and little sailors in every collection. Crowns are invariably shallow, but brims are all kinds of tricks so that some hardly look like sailors at all. Some of these flat little sailors are meant to be worn straight on top of the hull, to protect them from dangerous tilt, but made to stay on by decorative ribbon covered clips or bright bandeaus.
The fashion for pleats is echoed in intricately pleated straw hats, hats with pleated brims and hats trimmed with pleated silk. Ruffles are repeated in rippling brims and the fashion for patent leather accessories inspires the use of highly lacquered "patent leather straws."
Spring bonnets are brief and feminine, with a directoire feeling that makes them perfect for clothes of the same derivation. These bonnets sit high on the head and often curve up at the back in a little "ducktail" peak.
Some bonnets have brims that are put off or folded back in a squared line across the brow, combined with an abbreviated crown that is open at the back Still other bonnets have deep visor-like brims, like a poke bonnet without a crown.
Spring hat materials are excitingly interesting. Two tones of fine milantype braid are combined, row on row, in striped effects. Shiny straws are braided together in checkerboard and plaid patterns.
Color and texture contrasts are combined in hat bodies of narrow black velvet ribbon and wide notural straw, chenille crocheted with straw yarn and pale angora yarn sewn on smooth ballintails.
Monotone straws pair dull and shiny straws, smooth and rough braids or cotton fringe and net. Elegant strawcloths are woven in delicate pastels, with a thread of gold or silver to make them shine.
Trimmings are important but unobtrusive. The tiniest flowers are preferred for clusters and garlands of accent, although sometimes a single perfect rose or a huge silk poppy is used in such a way that it seems a part of the hat rather than a trimming.
The soft, airy beauty of curled ostrich feathers make a surprising debut on straw hats of dramatic size.
Fine handwork, such as a lacy embroidery of tiny white beads or a frosty overlay of dewy iridescent sequins, gives an unmistakable richness to unassuming little hats of shantung and balbutional straws. Veiling, sheer nylon and chiffon
scarves, too, are always a necessary part of the hat's design.
Many new shades of blue team up with the soft blues of spring costumes. Tri-color hats occasionally appear, but more often the red, white and blue costume gets a hat of red accented white or navy with white.
The hat that "goes everywhere" is as apt to be beige or natural straw, as it is black, white or navy. Hats of sunny yellow are surprisingly versatile and there are many spring-like hats in pale lemon, lime and orange combinations.
