Varied Fabrics and CoIors Distinguish Footwear
Says
MS710 Sa0D
One Must TOE" the Fashion
Line to Achieve Chic This
Current Season

DOEING the fashion line these
days means to pay smart at
tention to ones feet. In the
history Of the haute monde 1t is
to be doubted if footwear has ever
played such a conspicuous and
important part as the one it takes
in the present day costume. For
treading the road to style is not
to be thought Of unless one con-
siders the harmony of frock and
shoes both as to color and fabric.
Linen, daintily embroidered or
leather trimmed, shantung, pastel kid.
MORE, crepe de Chine in colorful array
are all of the fine fabrics of the cur
rent mode. "A new element Is being
optimistically introduced just now in
the form Of a washable leather that is
patterned to simulate the popular
moires. II is being shown in dark
colors as well as light, indicating that
il is making a bid for Fall favor. Trim
ming, although discreetly handled, is
used in a deft and original manner
Characteristic Of the latest achieve
mentS OF the footwear atellerS are a
number of models sketched today. Note
the varied combinations of fabrics and
colors that are used to attain verve
Above white kid is contrasted with
blue, which develops the heel. back and
saddle. Champagne decorated with
lizard Is next seen, then beige canvas
with q brown trim, and a plain white
kid with two-button strap. A three
eyelet tan kid oxford is next shown
trimmed with boa snake. A lustrous
finish is seen on the kid which bright
ems the blue kid slippers, and lastly
originality is expressed by the wooden
heel on the white buckskin oxfords
elaborated with lizard skin.
But other details which may appear
small are also Of impressive import
ance, as, for instance, a white linen
collar that ties in front as in the draw
ing at right Or again n of envelope
design created Of beige shantung with
brown kid trimming. Quaint and dis
tinctly modern is the old-time collar
cite with border of Persian lamb. That
b~outonniers are raised to a new high
point is evinced by the position Of the
bouquet of flowers in two shades of
yellow with dark green leaves that are
poised high on the neckline. II is in
deed true that attention to details
makes for complete perfection in the
costume a la mode.
