Very much better than alligator,
which is liable to split at the veins.
Naturally it is a waste of money to
buy a cheap shoe, either in lizard or
alligator. Lizard is used great deal
on suede, often as a narrow band
across the instep and as an ankle
strap. 1t is especially effective on
tan and brown suede, with which it
harmonizes beautifully.
Lizard is so popular that 1t is hav-
ing many imitators, not only among
feathers which try to pass themselves
off as the real thing, but others which
proudly acknowledge that they are
copies. In Paris there is "lizard
calf" designed for morning wear or
with the strictly tailored mode. And
there are even evening slippers
shown in rich brocades whose de-
sign takes on the lines of lizard and
alligator skins. I noticed recently
one pair of black patent leather
shoes with very high heel of lizard.
Black trimmed with silver con-
tinues and makes a charming shoe.
The simple lines of the present mode,
with a noticeable absence OF lattice
work, is particularly delightful in
black and silver. One of the seasons
most popular brides included pair
Of them in her trousseau, together
with a slim little pair of black satin
with a cut steel buckle. Cut steel for
the street! This appears to be rule
never to be disregarded. And rhine
stones for evening, with a perky frill
of ribbon outlining them. Very slen-
der buckles of black and white enam-
ell are sometimes seen, placed tightly
against the front of the shoe, SO that
they look almost like part OF it,
rather than a trimming. A black
satin slipper takes very kindly, to a
buckle.
