FUTURIST HATS IN PARIS.
In Paris the desire for futurist hats and Bulgarian garments has added fresh interest to tho ever-pressing topic of clothes. The shops aro advertising tho most modern art-movement in garments and bonnets. In tho art collection at tho Lexington Avenue armory (New York) thera will doubtless be endless aids to reflection upon spring fashions if one has i'yes to. see into things. If it is really tho ideal of these modern artists to portray the subjective experience of . things and not the things themselves, it should become possible to develop an endless individuality in wearing apparel. How pleasant it would be, for a change, to wear something which cave one the sensation of being comfortable! There should also be opportunities to express complex emotions—the feeling engendered in tho breast of the person consigned to the back' row in the balcony of the new Aeolian Hall, for instance, who looks at a row of velvet loops and erect feathers rising like a solid breastwork before her vision—a feeling that can be described as nothing less thaii purple and green—purple for wrath and :;iren for envy.
Something mmlogous to- the White Knight with the coal scuttle, into which he frequently descended und from which he had to be pulled by main strength, should symbolise the head dress of tho present day which binds, with rigid inflexibility, the brow of the young person. Then that small tuft of feathers nonchantly obliterating one eye of its wearer must surely have 1 some concomitant emotion. . One pleasant feature of this newexhibition will be found in fitting the idealism of the artists into futurist garments. 1
