WEDDING VEIL NOTIONS

Modern brides are showing a lot of

' originality in the choiceL,of .thelr wedding frocks, and especially with regard to the veils accompanying them. Wedding veils are not the cumbersome things they were. Sorhe brides only have a suggestion of lace that is brought round the face in soft folds and allowed to hang just past the shoulders, states a writer in, an exchange. Others haVe tiny caps made of lace or close embroidery, with just a touch of orange blossom at the sides, the short veil appearing at .the back, where it is attached to the cap,. Sometimes these caps are so severely cut that they resemble the popular helmet hat that is now every woman’s regulation day wear. When Norma Shearer, the pretty

Canadian film, star, was married, to Irving Thalberg, of Metro-Goldwyn- ' Mayer studios recently, she chose a simple frock of ivory velvet, fairly long ih the skirt and embroidered with pearls and - rhinestones. The original touch, lay In the yoke, which was made of finest rose point lace* The veil was arranged like those on our newest hats, hanging in a tiny lace frill over the face. You don’t often see a bride carryihg colours in her boquet. This one mixed purple and yellow sweet peas with the white orchids and, lilies of the valley which formed hers.
