Pul on "y o u r Easier Bonnet, with all the frills upon it and you’ ll be the
grandest lady in the Easter parade!" The demise o f the hat was only a tem­
porary phase in fashion history. Traditionally, hats were the final touch of
completing any costume.
Hats are often worn to express an attitude o f: chic sophistication, de-
murcncss, sweetness, charm or being foxy. They are worn also as a cover-up
lor the blahs (especially the Sunday blahs) or to disguise a messy hair style.
My favorite Auntie, a collector o f hats, always maintained, "Seal it o ff with
u hat, for all occasions." To some, the hat is a way o f fram ing and high­
lighting the face. The brim o f a hat, in particular, can indicate feelings and
attitudes—cocky, sad, or chic. For men, a hat can ton o ff that perfect busi­
ness suit. A hat makes a statement o f importance. It can symbolize author­
ity. It expresses the way you feel.

Color and texture play a very important part in hat selection, especially in
relation to the season. The newest trend for Spring Fashion is the wide, full-
brimmed hat w ith a shallow crown. We look to yesteryear fo r that flirta ­
tious and sassy lo o k . . . soft curls to be seen on the neck, the chic French roll
or the clean appeal o f the chignon.

f he insecurities o f wearing a hat diminish with knowledge in the selection
process. Choose your favorite hat salon or m illiner and let the hands o f ex­
perts pamper and service you. In selecting a hat, all angles o f the head, face,
cars and neck should be taken in to consideration in relation to the brim ,
width, color and shape o f the hat. Ornamentation can be fun. but one must
be careful. Over-exaggeration can destroy your total effect. On the other
hand, though, the addition o f ribbons, bands, scarves, feathers and jewelry
can enhance or update your hat o f the hour.
Whatever fashion approach is taken, the effect achieved should be eye­
catching. The look and style o f hats only changed by the seasonal fabric.
Whether formed and styled as a boater, French beret, Fedora or a hat o f the
broad-brimmed garden party variety, the wearer should not forget the face
underneath. The hat w ill attract attention but the make-up assists in the
final effect and balance o f hat and face.
C olor coordination is vital to the relationship. The color o f the hat should
be coordinated with the face colors. Eye make-up can be played down when
wearing a large-brimmed hat, but the remainder o f the face should be high­
lighted. Flawless skin, lips and cheeks create the look o f vibrance and vital­
ity. W ith a smaller hat, the face make-up can be emphasized more.

The return o f the beautiful hat is a symbol o f historical merit. As fashions
changed, hats underwent "tre n d y surgery” almost to the point o f extinc­
tion. The dominance o f the casual blue jeans almost created a fashion night­
mare to the hat industry. W ith the upswing o f the total fashion look, how­
ever, hats are “ coming o u t" in abundance and are easily found. Hats up,
ladies, it ’s what’s on top that counts and you can be the grandest lady in the
Easter Parade.
