PURSES AND BOOTS are also made up in contrasting patches of leather which create eye-
catching lines and patterns for the high-fashion dresser. The assorted colors make accessory

mixing and matching a natural.

FROM PAGE CO

there is still enough demand
for the comfortable, flat
leathers .or stubby-heeled
pumps that were popular last
year. But if the Italian win-
dow displays are any indica-
tion, this year’s answer to
casual may be the boot.

The Italians are coming
out with many styles this
season. While the tall, knee-
length cut is still in demand,
the casual dresser is looking
for more comfort —
something they can find in
the ‘floppy’ boot. It’s back
this season in a multitude of
textures and colors — cot-
tons, sucdes, even plastics for
a touch of the bizarre — as
one of fall’s more useful ac-
cessories. Many of the styles
shown in Rome were versatile
for different looks, worn
either high or pushed down
around the ankle.

Such playfulness has its
own form in the more sophis-

ticated pages of Italian show

fashions as well.

Take the suede evening
sandal (in red or black) we
found at Valentino’s. Its
strap coils around the ankle,
and then continues up the
calf, ending with a coy
snake’s head.

At a second Valentino
shop we found another in-
triguing style — his suede and
leather ‘‘tiger’’ look, with
skin-patterned shoes and
boots in black or rust (the
half-cut -boots sold for
410,000 lire, about $300
Canadian at the time), and a
similar all-leather style in a
leopard pattern, complete
with matching bomber
jacket.

Designers put equal impor-
tance on other accessories,
right down to the bright,
striking colors of their make-
up.

There are belts; this ¢eason
they can go as wide as possi-
bic, in bold, startling shapes
and colors (vibrant blues or
purples are great for spicing

up black and white). Scarves
provide a soft finish or
dramatic splash of color.
There are hats in soft felts,
perfect for a sophisticated
finish with suits or. big coats
and great with. today’s
shorter hair styles or long
hair tucked behind the ears.
Gloves, too, are a very big
item in all fashion circles this
fall, particularly with formal
wear, where they are free to
flow to the elbow.

Such accessories are as im-
portant to designers as the
clothes they design and, for
the fashion-conscious buyer,
they can take dollars off
wardrobe costs by making
new looks out of the basics, a
great flexibility for turning
casual to formal, or vice ver-
sa. They give women the best
of both worlds.
