The 1920's

WOMEN’S SHOES
Women’s shoes became lighter and finer with a pointed toe and the delightful addition of straps.
Bar shoes became all the rage for they didn’t fall off your foot while dancing the night away.  T-straps were popular too for the same reason and were worn primarily with afternoon gowns.   In the twenties, shoes were all about the strap.
MEN’S SHOES:
Black patent-leather shoes were popular during this era and often appeared with formal evening wear
Casual clothing demanded two-tone shoes in white and tan, or white and black.  Fringed tongues on Oxfords and brogues were seen frequently.  Lace-up style shoes were most in demand.
