AIM OF BEST DRESSED WOMAN IS "SMART SIMPLICITY" The hat of today insists on being small and chic. Aside from that you can make your choice. You may adopt the plain sports felt, the flower trimmed chapeau or a happy medium. On the left of the illustration we have the flower trimmed hat with a slightly rolling brim. Tan and blue is the color scheme—bluebird blue velvet trimmed with velvet flowers in the two shades. The one on the left, on the other hand, is a sports model in brown felt. Circ ribbon in a harmonizing tone is drawn through the felt making a conventional design of crosses. Reminds one of their kindergarten days, doesn't it? And speaking of "smart simplicity," the frock and hat in the center exemplifies it. Frock of brown, self-stripe velvet with linen cuffs and collar. Three pockets, too, and a white suede belt. The little hat is also brown velvet in a poke shape and is encircled with silk sleeves. VERBLOUSE Varden chiffon—yellow with pink roses—and the skirt is trimmed with black lace.

The frock is further embellished by a white bead trimming. In the center is another crepe frock—a white crepe evening gown beaded in red, blue and crystal. An elaborate rhinestone buckle is placed directly in front and from it falls a draping of pure white which gives the Egyptian touch that fashion is loath to give up.
