Fashion in Page: Vintage shoes

Jeweled Decoration in the 1920s


Edwardian Style, 1915

Vintage Shoes: Collecting and Wearing 20th Century Designer Footwear, by Caroline Cox, with a forward from shoe god Christian Louboutin. 
Covering the entire 20th century, decade by decade, this book recounts more than one hundred years of the history of shoe design, highlighting the key designers and cultural influences that have shaped shoe fashions throughout the century. 
Every chapter covers a shoe era with background, designer details and pictures. From 1900-1910 you have "Edwardian Elegance" and the divine Louis heel. 1930-1947 was "The Hollywood Heel" with Ferragamo, the wedge and the fabulous platform. The 1960s, "A Youth Revolution" had shiny shoes and space age styles. And there is so much more!
Vintage Shoes includes stunning fashion photography, specially commissioned photographs of period footwear, and the most collectible and fabulous shoe designs. As a bonus, a shopping and collecting guide offers pointers on sourcing and caring for vintage footwear, along with a glossary of shoe designers such as Salvatore Ferragamo, Manolo Blahnik, Vivienne Westwood, and many others.
