DRESSY, ELABORATE SHOES HOLD LIMELIGHT FOR EASTER

Trimming Is Lavish on Footwear BY JULIA BLANSHARD NF4 Service Writer NEW YORK, March 26.— ft you want to get down to fundamentals In Easter chic—new shoes are positively intriguing! Don't ]&+ ror plain shoes. New ones are dressy. Sometimes they us* three leathers to make a pair, often combine two colors and are prone to indulge themselves in the matter of trimmings. Patent leather, lizard, snakeskin and all the other reptilian skins, and calf and kid in many pleasing combinations are used in the new spring shoes. Various novelty materials, such a: suva lace, which is a coarse openwork fabric, looking much like strong, coarse basket weave hemp, are seen. too. Vary VVitli Wearci Oxfords arc varied as the types Oi women who will wear them. The low cut ol some of them make them dainty as a pump, only much easier to- the average woman to keep on her feet. One-strap sandals, in colored kid, with some kind of fancy insets of lizard or other ikin, are excellent lor printed silk frocks, for silk suits and later on for the printed cottons arid voiles. Pumps are chic, as • usual, 4 go in for fancy perforations, t 1 shank trims and heels of medium high cut. The favorite colors this spring are brown, black, navy, and that ruddy red-brown known as oxblood There are many fancy colors, however, as purple, green, maroon, but the very light shoes of beige and gray will come later on for summer frocks. Contrasts Are Smart Don’t be afraid to wear a good looking pair of brown shoes with a blue suit this spring. Or oxblood with black. Or brown with gray or blue with a brown outfit. You must shed your idea of matching things this year, for contrast is the slogan and the woman who has good taste in her own contrasty is the chic one. Tips, open-work across the vamp, novel pointed and curved contrasting insets and bandings of different color from the main part of the shoe make oxfords and sandals dashing and stimulating. You can get a medium heel, but the heel that is a little higher makes the oxferd much dressier. The leather heels are reserved for sports and semi-sports shoes and "covered heels predominate. Pumps in Wide Variety An impressive collection of individualized shoes for different Easter costumes included a preponderance of two or three eyelet oxfords, some sandals and a wide variety of pumps. For wear with a brown and white printed silk suit, there is a brown calfskin and white suva lace combination that is new and pleasing. The tip and shank are of the brown, and the white suva lace makes the rest of the shoe, with brown bindings and laces. For a sleek gray outfit with lavender and purple accessories, a Parmesian purple kid oxford is cut with an eyelet trim and one-eyelet lacing, with grosgrain ribbon. With a snowflake black and white imported wool and printed silk ensemble a dressy oxford of black calfskin and light snakeskin has an unusual cut, with the tip pointing up to make the lacing portion of the shoe, and then the rest of the shoe snakeskin except a striping up the side and the very black of the shank. Svcll Sarnlal Shown For a silk frock, there is a svelt blue kid one-strap sandal, with an unusual outside decoration of bowknots of inlaid lizard in beige. Beige lizard and brown calfskin fashion a trig pair of two-eyelet oxfords, with the light-toned lizard reversing the order and fashioning the tip and vamp and the darker calfskin carrying on from there. For wear with a print that deserves'a light shoe to carry it, there is a swanky suva lace pump in pastel tones made with contrasting color stitching it and forming a wedge at the back of the shank. A flat little bow of the shoe's material trims this pump.

Here's a slimming costume slip that Paris has designed on the lines of the new frock. The interesting cut of the moulded bodice extending into a deep point at the front, proves a particularly slenderizing feature and gives length. The skirt being circular, falls so gracefully beneath the frock with similar circular flaring hemline. The hem of ihe slip may be rolled by hand, which gives it a French finish or it may be finished professionally with picot-edge. Lace edging provides a dainty trim which may also trim the upper edge of the bodice. It can be made easily in an hour or possibly two. And the cost wfill prove surprisingly small. Style No. 228 may be had in sizes 14, 16, 18, 20 years, 36 and 38 inches bust. Crepe de chine and flat crepe silk are popularly used for the excellent service they give. Size 16 requires 214 yards 35 or 39-inch and 314 yards edging. Order a copy of our new Fash-
