TYPES AND COLOURS

Yellow is to be the favourite oclour for the coming season, but the girl with a pale-skinned or average completion with mid-brown hair should not wear too bright a 'shade of yellow.. For her, the safe tones for hat, overblouse, or scarf, are primrose, pale daffodil and a rich buttery shade like the top layer on Devonshire cream. The girl with the coppery-red hair can wear lemon yellow effectively, but it must not incline too much toward lime, because that would throw out her coon-. pJexion into too great a relief. Creamy maize is also good. Red-haired women have generally vivid complexions, and it is a curious fact that while a true shade of green accentuates their charms, a greenish-yellow has just the opposite effect.

The brunette and chestnut-haired type wear most yellows, except lime, lemon and canary. Lime and lemon turn brunette and brownie sallow, and the third makes them too conspicuous, especially the brunette.
