Prestige of Fabric Shoe

If ones taste runs to sfnooth-surfaced
fabric shoes, slippers of Tyrolian ana
spun silk should rank among the
favcrites. With satin and shafitung
frocks and those of rough silk the
pongec-like texture of spun silk Is
especially appropriate. Tyrolian, an
other popular fabric of silk and Egyp-
tian yarn. finds a snug place in any
part of the Summer wardrobe Both of
these fabrics take dye beautifully or
are equally lovely in their natural
shades

Expected to Be in Fashion.

colors worn with the coming OF cold
weather will be brighter end more
striking than those that have been
worn for many Autumns.
Monotone effects which were so char
acteristic of women's costumes few
seasons ago have given place to COM
binations Of two or three contrasting
colors. We deliberately combine red
with white and blue, black with red and
white. orange with green and white.
Instead of the combination of brown
with beige we use brown with white or
brown with yellow. Pastels and off,
tones are still in good repute. but they
are chosen more often for evening
clothes. while the brighter colors ana
more striking combinations are favored
for daytime wear.
HERE are some of the interesting
ways that colors are combined this
Summer. A skirt and short Jacket of
navy blue is worn with blue and white
polka dotted blouse with wide red silk
sash knotted at one side. Red and white
striped silk forms the cuffs and scarf
collar of another navy blue fiat crepe
suit which lis worn with white blouse
with wide revers which are worn over
the jacket. A black chiffon daytime
dress shows small dots of red and white
and Is worn With red patent leather
belt. A white jersey sports dress has
small flower motifs embroidered on the
blouse in rose, yellow, black and blue.
White was never more widely worn
than it is this season. AT many gather
ings of we'll dressed women at smart
Summer resorts it has been estimated
that 80 per cent of the women present
wore white. Usually, however. some
bright color-red, blue. green or yellow
is introduced by way of dress trimming
or accessories. So that white really
serves as the best of all backgrounds on
which to set forth some one or more
of the rislt colors.

tiny tucks concealing the seams after
the manner OF the diagonal tucking

e-quarters in length, with elbow
sleeves finished with the side pleats
which are such an important motif in
decoration these days. A narrow band
of the same pleating was used all
around the coat, which was .sorn over q

sleeves of black and white plaid tafieta
and the slspender-bac dress of black

of old rose on the shoes.

THE same vogue that elevated cotton
to first place in dress materials this
Summer has given the fabric shoe out
standing prestige.
BY far the smartest of fabric crea-
tions that have risen to popularity are
shoes of new woven damask cloth of
distinguished beauty, created by Rodier,
the famous Partisan fabric designer. Its
tiny woven motif becomes slightly
high-lighted when 1t is dyed to any
desired shade The beauty of this fab
ric lies mainly in its versatility, as it
is successfully used in shoes Of every
model from spectator sports pump to
an evening slipper. Overruling the
time worn objection to the fabric Slip
per, that of its impracticability, this
material is durable combination Of
linen and silk which cleans easily and
does not lose it's shape in rain or
moisture.
The great rage for shoes of open
work design in a mesh fabric Is best
expressed in shoes of honeycomb mesh,
sturdy fish-net sort Of fabric that is
delightfully."- cool and veoy good look
ing. The superiority of .honeycomb
also lies in the fact that 1t possesses
