Ballerina flat takes a bow for another season
KNIGHT RIDDER NEWSPAPERS
They come and go from fashion with the regularity of shirtwaist dresses and white collars. And thanks to a return of miniskirts, '50s fashion and a comfort craving, the ballerina flat is back this summer.
Crawl down off your towering heels (what Newsweek calls "nosebleed stilettos") for a change. Slip into a little slipper with a bow. They look especially good with Capri pants and minis, and dowdy with knee-length skirts.
And, as Allure magazine notes, the selection includes $23 Capezios (www.capeziodance.com) as well as high-priced choices from the likes of Prada and Marc Jacobs.
Audrey Hepburn is always with us.
