All the flowers that bloom In the spring, summer and autumn contribute their joyous colors and delicacy to ail sorts of hats, but flowers never coine Into the world of fashion unattended, ribbons and laces always accompany them. A little study of the three hats shown here—typical of the mode—will reveal that headwear, like all other apparel, la growing more dainty and more elaborate. Except for the plain felt sports hat. In high colors, or white, about everything In millinery Is trimmed one way or another and even on these felts, clusters of flowers or flat rosettes of ribbon are used In the dressier types of sports hats. There Is a pretty fad for searing a button-hole bouquet of flowers to match those on the hat, or at least including a flower like those In the bat trimming. Sometimes this small nosegay Is attached to the hat by a length of very narrow ribbon, one end sewed In the head site and the other tied to the boutonniere. Or a cluster of flowers Is worn on the cuff or lapel of the coat.
