Shoes and Slippers
Author(s): Althea MacKenzie
The ladies' shoes, slippers and boots in this collection date from the early 18th century up until the 1890s. They show that, during a time when women did not expose their legs, shoes were a not only a means of conveying class, status and persona, but also of hopes, dreams and fantasies of greater delights above.
