A Ball Of Twine Might Be Milady's New Spring Hat
New York—(U.P.) Plain brown string off a package may make the smartest hat in town this season. Or it may be chiffon or organdy or rose leaves sprinkled with pearls, or a perky veil of woven straw.
All those materials and more are used by Mr. Fred of John-Federics, Inc. in a millinery collection which hit a new spring high in imaginative use of materials in a fine wearable array.
The packing string, in its natural brown color, is coiled around a block to form a head-fitting hat with a small brim. One with a turned up brim was banded with pale yellow chamois skin. Another, with a straighter, casual brim had pale yellow-beige trimming.
The shape of the John-Frederics hat ranges from a small-brimmed cloche which has a dozen variations to the tilt of its brim to a propeller blade shape set crosswise on the head with one rounded and one pointed end to its ellipse.
In between are "sailors with a lurch"—a tilted, stiff brim sailor with the brim wider at the high or southpaw side, tiny straw crowns for light-headed luncheons, monotone molded turbans in pale felts and a tiny back-of-the-head beanie shape called "bebop" which is not so ingenuent as it sounds.
a wisp of veiling which lightens their bulk.
Organgly, chiffon and net are stitched to solidity for tidily tailored hats, many of which are suitable for all day wear and should feel like nothing on the head. Layers of gray net, for instance, semitransparent over the crown and solidly massed for a ripple brim are used for a cloche banded with twisted ropes of gray chiffon and seed pearls.
The propellor blades, which Mr Fred calls "Flight '49," are most usually untrimmed, in fine straws or tie silks and either straight or slightly curved in shape.
Stripes of felt and straw are woven together for another group of hats, usually in pale colors which contrast only slightly, and banded with
The tiny straw coronets have head-fitting crowns of straw mesh which come out over the forehead to form a brief veil.
Veils on wide brimmed picture hats have a new look with a cut out "V Zone" which leaves the mouth out in the open for smoking, drinking, eating, and talking.
Flowers are used sparingly and frequently with a different touch. A bunch of them are flattened under a straw mesh snood at the back of one hat, for instance. Dark gray petals, with pearl dew drops, are used for a cap. And a large spray of fern is laid between layers of pale beige orgyand in a wide brimmed hat that needs the light behind it to show the trim.
