Fed up of boring shoes? Looking for the ideal 18th century footwear for a Lady of Fashion? Want to bring a bit of elegance to 21st century footwear?
Now you can! I am rather excited at the prospect of American Duchess’s Georgiana shoes – today pre-orders open for these pretties:
(And, no, it’s not an April Fool’s!)
They’re silk satin, which means they’re completely dyeable to whatever colour you fancy, and they look quite divine. I am pining for a pair … let’s see if I can scrape some pennies together!
I don’t get to do reenactments or the like, but I would quite happily wear these for special occassions of the non-historical variety. LOVE them!
