ATE This year ear everything thing Is lg buttons The button boot has been In popularity larity for some time but It has navel hover no cr predominated so distinctly as a style as at tho the present time when probably from 73 u 5 to 90 00 per of oC all the women's shoes are made mado In tho the button pattern and as tho the follower of oC styles keep his ear very ery close to the ground there thero Is no better Indication as to what will bo be worn than this overwhelming o tendency towards the button boot This does doeG not necessarily mean n n. sameness of pattern for while this t type pe prevails alls It Is made mado up In so many combinations and so 40 many varied ef effects effects ef- ef that there Is a vel very wide VIde range to choose from TOPS CLOTH YR Tho The leading material for fall will be bo begun begun gun gUll metal and patent calf calC leathers for vamps with cloth tops In fact tact one of oC the features of or tho the coming season will willbe willbe be shoes with cloth Fashion has decreed It and well dressed women have taken to It strongly While plain black corkscrew cloth will bo be largely In evidence attractive novelty effects will also be used In both hoth colors and designs Tan boots will also be worn to some sorno extent for foi carl early fall Indeed It ii is becoming a common thin thing for a woman to have several o pairs of ot boots and ond to a large extent she plans to have her footwear her hosiery hosler and her gown In harmonizing If It not actually matching colors TREND D IX IN LASTS As to the proper lasts in the tho more mor i expensive shoe the narrow recede toe predominates It seems likely t too o that for those who are always ah Interested interested interested Inter inter- ested In the tho high st style le Ideas ten and twelve button shoes will he be worn to a considerable extent This is In keeping with the tendency to toward ard lower tops but the popular height will wUl unquestionably ably be fourteen teen buttons f The rhe medium round and medium high toe t which Is sensible comfortable and attractive In appearance will continue to be popular with a large number of oC Women especially In communities outside outside outside out out- side of a fe few of oC tho the larger cities clUes There are also a number of ot attractive patterns of oC laced boots being shown Inthe in inthe inthe the retail shops These are arc designed lar largely el for tor heavy winter walking boots Milady l has found that for bad t weather eather for slush and rain a heavy Y boot Is by far the most satisfactory Therefore for tor women who are aro likely to be out on boot must continue continue continue con con- bad days das this type of oC to be bo popular I As yet et there thero Is an undeniable tendency ton ton- i tho the higher dency especially among grade grado shoes to lighter footwear than has been worn for the past few seasons This tendency is expressed in the tho re reIal revival revival re- re footwear with vival I of the tho turned solo light flexible solo solos soles Shoes of oC his his character carry the smart heels known as Louis and kidney or wide top lift types Ono of oC tho the most Important factors In women's footwear is tho much larger use of oC evening slippers The stores are aro showing unusually large larSe and attractive attractive assortments of evening o footwear Wo We be before Cora of tho tendency to match hosiery footwear and go gowns ns In oven ovon- Ing slippers this amounts almost to a i necessity Very few women at all In Interested In- In I in fashion care to wear an an evening gown with slippers other than those matching tho the dress Perhaps this has led to tho the carrying out of ot the Idea also for street wear In either caso case It undoubtedly adds adda greatly to a a. stylish Ush costume to havo have shoes and hosiery In Inthe Inthe inthe the same color Tho The exception to this rul rule Is the tho vogue of white hosiery with black shoes which Is Is Isery very ery smart at present t SLIPPER OR ORNAMENTS POPULAR Many of ot the tho retailers arc are carrying largo large assortments of ot slipper ornaments made of cut steel rhinestones and various various various vari vari- ous other materials These are exceedingly exceedingly exceed exceed- popular Indeed a very large largo percentage of ot evening e slippers carry some somo such ornamentation Even In respect to the heels of oC the shoes there Is a tendency towards the unusual and In some cases the tho heels are aro made to match tho the buckle Of I course this Is rather extreme but It is not the limit to which style can go for forin I 1 in some cas cases s. s evening slippers sUppers are aro being being boIng be bo- ing made with painted hand china heels of oC color and design to match the hod body of or the slipper This affords aCCords an opportunity opportunity for tor st style le individuality In tho the J buying of separate buckles and attaching attaching attach attach- ing In them to tho the slipper In this manner manner mannor man man- ner nor women can secure a variety of ot style effects with one ono pair of ot plain satin opera style slippers as a basis Good quality and good style slippers of ot this typo tyle are now procurable at moderate moderate prices STYLES FOR MEN rn Men as a rule are not quite as susceptible susceptible sus sus- to quick stylo style changes as women and yet et In footwear tho they are aro certainly taking notice this season I While thero there Is not quite as wide a variety of or mens men's footwear shown in tho the retail shops tho the range Is big enough for to make Itself felt in tho choice of the proper shoe In general the style lines are very much the same as In women's footwear Button boots are and will be bo be popular But ut the men will wear a greater proportion proportion proportion pro pro- portion of ot laced shoes than the women It Is hard to figure flAuro just wh why this should be bo true for tho the button boot most assuredly aa- aa Is the trimmer of tho the two But Buttor for tor somo some reason men have nover never got on tho the same sarno friendly h terms with the tho button button button but but- ton boot Perhaps it is Just plain natural natural nat nat- ural laziness which In the present da day and generation g generally generall goes under tho the head of efficiency or cutting out tho the waste motion But 1 if broken laces are arc taken into consideration but little difference in labor is t found und to exist be between between between be- be tween tho the labor of ot button and lace at at- at In the lace laco types there Is a 1 tendency to make the bal pattern more mora popular than the blucher pattern GUN METAL JAL AND PATENT LEATHERS LEAD As to leathers gun bun metal and patent leathers decidedly have the tho popular verdict But Buttan tan calf catt will also bo be used probably to a greater extent b by men than b by women THE STANDARD DRESS SHOE top Cloth-top shoes will also be shown and worn to a a. considerable larger ex extent extent ex ex- tent than during previous seasons Ono One of oC the types which is iser er very much in evidence evidence evi l dence this season Is the boot with patent patent patent pat pat- ent vamp amp plain toe and black top cloth-top for tor even evening In wear and formal occasions This style stylo Is being taken U up all over oyer tho the country countr and is practically the standard for tor formal dress dres TOP CLOTH NOVELTIES I ISome Some ver very err attractive novelty effects are shown in patent or gun metal vamps with vesting whipcord or ribbed cloth tops In light shades principally gray and brown bron The lasts for men show a predominance of the tho narrow recede re recede recede re- re cede toe and the flat English last These have come yer very much In favor or during the past few seasons and threaten durin during the coming comins fall tall and winter to increase their popularity de decidedly de- de But the medium round medium medium medium me me- high toe is still popular in somo bOmo sections of the country countr Indeed It Is I pretty safe saCe to predict In mens men's st styles les that comfort has come to bo be considered consid consid- cred ered to a large extent The percentage of oC men who will wear a shoo merel merely because It Is stylish Is decidedly in the minority There seem to be some types of feet which are not formed to wear English-cut English shoes with any lasting de degree degree de- de gree greo of comfort |
