your ears this fall—unless they are
inordinately homely.
The r a youthful ap-
pearance' coiffure experts ex-
plained Tuesday at the "official
hairdressers show and conven-
tion."
Coiflures with the hair brush-
ed off the ears and into open curls
like those Empress Josephine wore
were displayed as examples of how
women's hair will look this fall
and winter.
Simplified versions of elaborate
regal styles were stressed as the
coming vogue for American
women with brushed-up curls
sometimes circling the entire
head like a crown to iorm the
new "coronation'* hairdress.
The current revival of Empire
fashions and the comma corona
• tion ol King Edward VIII inspired
' the new coiifures. but some ol the
hair ornaments borrowed ideas
from "swing" music.. They were
shaped with an upward swirl and
one sparkling gadget was caption-
ed Bird in Flight.”
Curls—combed into a soil roll
for daytime and worn "high and
tight" for evening—are far bet-
ter than waves; the preferred hair
tint is brownette. the reddish-gold
shade of Jean Harlows hair at
i present and there is no trend to-
ward long hair.
Where the hair is long it is
dressed to look as if it’s short—
waved up from the neck with no
knot.
With oil-the-tace hats the curls

worn out to look like hat trimming
