Patent with white buck is employed in sufficient proportion to make the general effect dark. Brown is considered smart 'with beige costumes, and fabric shoes are trimmed with calf or patent leather.

Flared godets are inserted into the backs of longish jackets by Mainbocher, and black Jackets, are worn over orange, violet, red, or cyclamen.
