 Slenderness Of stra pS Is q distinC- tive note now. The intricate. elabor. ate and showilv adorned lnccd straps Of the winter have melted from view as have the snows.
 Graceful. slender silhouette
 All trims are delicate and accent a slender silhouette Of grace rather than being merely ornamental. Heels are sensibly lower--the modified spike and even Cuban heels finding favor. And everywhere there is trend away from the cute shortjsh vamp of French favor towards the slender, more graceful American style. Tips. therefore, are dsap- bearing And the much cut-up vamp is no longer good.
