The Richmond palladium. (Richmond, Ind.) 1906-1907, 1906-11-11

wear are being shown in the shop WIN
dows and quite the latest thing is the
jewel-studded heels, opalescent beaded
and cut cut work vamps, together with
remarkable and elaborate combina-
lions of kid and velvet. Never since
the days of the Louise has there been
noted such marked departures from
stereotyped styles. Stunning and UNI
usual as these bejeweled heels are,
they will not be more admired than
the exquisite workmanship on the toes
and sides OF some of the slippers.
Many of the models are exact copies
of Marie Antoinettes dainty pumps
that are exhibited in museum IN Par
is, and with few exceptions. all are
patterned after the dainty footSear
that was fashionable more than a cen
tury ago. Though made from fine
materials, it is the decorations that
make the slippers so unusual. for
they are unlike anything used before
TO ornament footwear. The designs,
both in scroll and delicate floral pat
terms, look more like finely chiseled
pieces of jewelry than hand embrold-
cry work Quite as unusual as the
jeweled heels are the cut out designs
on the toes of some of the smartest
pumps. These patterns, cut out IN
floral and scroll devices ARE filled IN
with gilt or silver lace, which does not
entirely hide the stockings inside and
gives alluring glimpses of the delicate
pink, light blue, or pure white nos
iery. These openwork slippers, as
they are called, will undoubtedly be as
popular as the jeweled ones. In
shape, the slippers have narrower toes
than those of last year and the heels
are about a quarter of an inch higher,
made on the Louis XIV pattern. This
makes the heels for the evening shoe
about two and half inches in height.
This added height, with the narrow
toe, gives the new style pumps grace
and delicate appearance that slippers
have not possessed in several years.
AS to the walking or dress boots with
velvet and cloth tops. they are quite
remarkable, for the newest of these
are about two inches higher than the
average shoes and have scalloped tops
patterned after the Napoleonic boots.
The heels are about a quarter of an
inch higher and the toes more mar
row. Some of the heels are military
and others are copies of the Louis
styles One of the most striking COM
binations among these stunning new
dress shoes is the black patent, leather
vamps with the purple velvet uppers,
that button with flat round white pearl
buttons, such. as are usually put on
gloves Another pretty pair has
black vamps with red velvet uppers
and white pearl buttons.
