Thanks to the great variety in | shoe - silhouettes, plus styling | that’s light, soft, and wholly fe- | minine, women’s footwear this fall, carries a large share of | the fashion news.

In the past they have even been used to designate social and economic positions responsible for important inven- |tions and the founding of .vast industries.

Today, many brttons play a |leading role in accenting a cos-

Today most buttons are fashio- ned of plastic or synthetics but at one time or: another almost

every material known to man

jhas been transformed into but- ltons. Every art and craft has also been employed in creating these ‘buttons: ‘painting, sculp- iture, goldsmithing, metal work-

The first rea! button was /found in a Danish peat bog du- ring an archaeological excava- tion in 1865. It was round, in lcrude fashion, and had-holes in it for attaching to a garment. it |dates back to Denmark’s early

There is no evidence of buttons | having been used commonly in Europe until the beginning of ithe 11th century. After. that point, the history of buttons re- i flects the mode of éveryday life }in Europe as well as the entire structure of society itself.

At times the button was”

purely functional; at other times it was used for ornamentation and social status. King Louis IX of France made ornamented buttons the mark of the aristoc- racy. French clerks and class es below them were not allowed to wear-buttons made of metal but-were ‘limited to cloth - and -

thread - covered buttons. The button has gone through
