One would almost think she was a
"tattooed lady" the summer girl of 1916,
for she's painted from the top Of her we'll
hated head to the tip of her dainty shod
foot. Only it's chiefly matter of painted
raiment, rather than pigment.
Last week we discovered and wrote
about some of the lovely voiles and chif-
fons that clever Philadelphia girls are
touching up with their water colors in
beautiful water-lly, orchid, sweetpea and
other floral designs. Painted hats are
an old story by this time. Comes now
painted hosiery and footgear
Exnus,tc white kid boots are delicately
entwined with trailing arbutus and violets.
The tips OF milady's pumps are be-flow-
cred with her favorite blossoms.
OF course the shoes are expensive-ar-
tistc hand-work always comes high" un-
less you do it yourself-but imagine the
lovely addition a pair of hand-painted
boots are TO n garden party costume. The
wonder is that no one has ever thought
of II before.
Dame Fashion. however. who is very
explicit in laying down the law as to
what we should wear maintains a pro-
found silence when It comes to the prac-
ticability of some of the articles she de-
crees. For instance, there Is no word as
to how we are to clean these delicate
boots when they are soiled. and It would
be an extravagant woman indeed who
would buy a pair of white shoes that
couldn't be regenerated ever so often. But
doubtless by the time these boots have
gained high favor a way of whitening
them and at the same time of preserving
the pristine freshness of the painted flow
ers will have been discovered.
