Open Toes Are Out in Shoes for Younger Set-New Leathers Vary
The footprint! in tha sands
of fashion are changing-teen-agers
are walking around in
light, airy leather flats in
school and out.
It's all due to a new look of
quiet good taste that pervades
the campus these days, says
Shoe Fashion Service of
Leather Industries of
America. Fads still mean fun
afoot, but they're not the be
all and end-all of fashion.
Today's teen-ager is seen in
subtle - colors and simple
styles. On the ground, the
style note is sounded by un
derstated colored leathers -smooth,
brushed, grained and
patent leathers- in pumps and
flats with pared down sides.
Jelly Bean Colors
Youthful dress shoes, the
kind that will sparkle in the
Easter parade, show up in
jelly bean colors. In every
leather and in most colors, it's
bright, but not too sunny.
For dress occasions, the flat
and the low heel share honors,
but for parties and dances it's
the mid heel that's popular.
Among the fads are off-side
straps, in pumps and flats.
Other fads are large perfora
tions, the use of under and
overlays to provide color, and
leather texture contrasts. In
both dress pumps and casual
flats, portholes on vamp and
side are part of the teen's
"open look" afoot.
Open toes are out-banished
to squaresville. Flats with
wideopen spaces at the side or
back are always teamed with
closed toes-round, tapered or
square.
In casual footwear - the
kind a girl likes to wear when
she's not dating or shopping
brushed leather flats are tops.
Brushed split leather gains
popularity, because the leath
er has been "split" or thinned
down to make the shoe light
er, more pliable.
COLORING COATS
Color never had it so good
as it does in spring coats.
Women have their choice of
pretty pastels, clear mid
brights and flattering dark
tones. The white and off-white
coat is a fashion favorite for
spring. '
The brushed leather pixie
boot is another example of an
off-campus shoe. For good
looks and easy wear, the glove
leather moccasin or flat feels
soft and lithe on the foot, like
a glove on the hand.
While she's looking for new
fashions, the teen also takes
time out to buy a rc-stylcd
classic - the leather moccasin,
seen this year in new waxy
leather as well as smooth,
grained and patent.

Leather Tops Fashion
Crest for Every Hour
Leather rides the crest of
fashion this spring.
Light as an April breeze,
but warm enough for blustery
spring days, leather apparel
is made to travel right up to
the hot months.
The softer, more feminine
look is interpreted in graceful
leather coats, in daytime and
after-dark dresses, in hats and
suits. Soft pastels and taupes
are favored colors.
Both smooth, matte leather
and buttersoft suede share the
fashion spotlight, reports the
Leather Industries of Amer
ica. Leather shows up in sleeve
less, plunging back suede
sheaths for evening and in el
b o w-patched, leather fronted
knitted cardigans for casual
wear. .
For the bright look of
spring, delicate-colored leath
ers team with silks, with cot
tons and with sheerest wools.
A raw silk sheath takes on
added dimension with a silk
bound matching suede jacket.
The costume look is carried
out in a Chanel-type cabretta
jacket and matching, gently
flared skirt.

light tones such as rose beige
and pale blue. Handsome for
town wear is the short coat
in suede or supple smooth
leather, in minty green or lic
orice black.
Simply styled, the season's
coats accentuate leather tex

cabretta are embroidered or
studded with fake jewels.

The leather hat is spring-
important in pillboxes and
domes, in turbans and sailors.
It shows up in smooth and
grained leathers, in artfully
draped and wrapped turbans
in shiny kidskin or soft suede.
It flashes in black patent
leather, in straw combina
tions,' in pale lilac tones and
navy blues.
Black patent now becomes
more than a classic shoe ma
terial; it is fashionable in ap
parel as wfell as hats. As a
coat, it takes to abbreviated
trench styles. For the beach,
it's lined in white terry cloth.
