SANDALS FOR ROYALTY
Sandal shoes—good looking, comfortable, and easy to wear—are 'preferred to all other types of shoes by the Duchess of Gloucester and the Duchess of Kent, states a London writer. For the Coronation season, nearly all their shoes are of this type. One pair the Duchess of Gloucester has chosen is in off-white brocade embroidered with gold. The heel is about ljin high. Another pair is in black brocade embroidered with gold, red and white motifs outlined with narrow bands of gold kid. A third pair—for afternoon wear—is of bronze kid. The Duchess of Kent's heels are a little lower, as she is above average height. One of her pairs of shoes is of cloth gold embroidered with appliqued gold kid motifs. Another is plain silver kid with an openwork design across the toes. -
