Sandals came into fashion in the 1930s and could be worn morning, noon, and night. Structurally, this evening sandal from Bally is very similar to more pedestrian sandals. However, the use of silver kid and a diamante buckle transform it into an elegant evening shoe.

Best foot forward today & a winged shoe sending forth rays of sunshine with each step. The #bbcqt 1930s was a fabulous decade of shoe design, as I shall be sharing with students today for our objects lecture. We shall think too about equilibrium, balance & wear. Bata Shoe Museum

#Sassy ! A fall archive fav from my visit to the Bata Shoe Museum several years ago. Chirpy tartan front lacing ankle boots with a bit of sassy fringe, c.1855-65. Great seeing them in person. From splendid 'Fashion Victims' exhibit (now closed)

Isn’t #1930s shoe design amazing? So much detail in pairs such as these made by Preciosa with varieties of trim and different materials used for contrast. My big ole feet would not go anywhere near them but I can admire from afar Bata Shoe Museum #fashionhistory

This pair of Air Jordan 1s is customized by Canadian sneaker artist Vicky Vuong, who designed them to honor her grandmother and celebrate her Asian heritage. Vuong’s hand-painted design featuring peonies was inspired by the florals often found on Chinese porcelain 👟💐

Tonight’s panel on 80s shoes at Bata Shoe Museum hosted by the always excellent Nathalie Atkinson was glorious. I wore white shoes for the occasion..

The Grade 2s in 202 & 203 had a shoe-tastic trip to the Bata Shoe Museum where we expanded our study of global communities by learning about different types of footwear throughout history and the world! We even got to try some on and painted our own clogs! #socialstudies #history

Lovely night at the Bata Shoe Museum for a change of pace, at panel talk Shoulder Pads To Stilettos: How the 1980s Impacted Fashion and Culture, inspired by current exhibition Dressed to Impress: Footwear and Consumerism in the 1980s.

Mid c18th shoes exemplify the period’s approach to component dressing. Partly technology driven, partly fashion, the fastenings for a shoe were interchangeable. The silk latchets cross over the front of the foot & then it is up to the wearer to choose a buckle Bata Shoe Museum
