"Look Like
Lady," Say
New Fall
By CHARLOTTE CHIC
You'll like looking like a lady
too, when you see the stunning
new fall styles in shoes. Dainty,
aristocratic, simply designed shoes
of beautiful materials . . . lines
that flatter ankles and legs , . .
modest closed backs and toes . . .
In a word, shoes are shoes again,
and it's a wonderful feeling to
put your feet into them and feel
' shoe" instead of wide open
spaces!
Designers have borrowed their
ideas from the fashions of
Grandma's day! Quaint cunning
GAITERS (inspired by old-time
"spat shoes"), are built high over
the instep, of soft ELASTICIZED
SUEDE or FAILLE, combined
with patent leather, calfskin or
alligator. They give feet "that
smooth look" so important this
season! V-THROAT PUMPS are
also very new and popular. They
are graceful, foot-slimming and
ankle-flattering. Variations on
pumps and step-ins predominate
in types, but sophisticated high
lacing ties are seen also for day
time wear.
Many, many other styles have
come from the hands of design
ers to make shoes this fall an ad
venture in everything that's new,
whether they are for casual wear,
sport or whatnot.
