For ball room events it is predicted that gatin shoes will be more popular than ever. “or walking it seems that the Ox- ford or laced shoe is about to be re- vived. Straps, buttons, and buckles drove out laced shoes some time ago and proved lighter and pleasanter: but now a modified Oxford shape, like a rather high-laced court shoe, is suggested. The new shape will probably be made also of Iisard and python and reptile leathers—though many of the newer shoes are trim- med with, rather than - made of. these skins. Enamel Buckles Enamel buckles are elegant trifles matching shoes in color, and for the daytime they are often of a rich brown to go with kid shoes, or they have paste settings for the evening . They are also elaborately set for black patent ‘or atin’ afternoon sho Kid shoes are now mostly in darker shades of brown, to- baccd, snuff, and nigger-brown, a color which is a change from. the lighter browns hitherto popular.
