Buttons in Favor.

One could talk forever about the buttons used this season. Almost every new costume shows a new button. Engraved crystal and aluminum are elaborate, a mosaic shell button is odd. The buckle button serves two purposes. Enamel and rhinestone and steel are artistic combinations. Ribbon covered molds. molds covered with bunched beads and some In leather In pinwheel effect are products of the dressmakers’ art. Some buttons are braided, many embroidered, and some even covered with straw. Handpainted glass buttons are used on lingerie, while buttons edged with wired braid loops are surely a novelty. ~
