Cathy, do you, by any chance, happen to have a reference, an image, a text description of Lady Curzon's shoes, the ones she wore with the Peacock Dress the night of the dress's debut? Not meant as a challenging question; I ask because I find myself suddenly exceptionally keen to know what those shoes looked like.
I have no clue, except to guess and to peer at the tantalising glimpse of toe in this photo. But I do know that she'd have had the best, and that Lauren's research in the blog post I linked to can't be a bad guess.
There is a possibility that they could have been made by the shoemaking star of the era, the self-proclaimed “most expensive shoemaker in the world”, Pietro Yantorny, whose shoes are AMAZING. Google to be swept off your feet!
Sorry, I went to shorthand, didn't I! I usually reference him as "Barry the business mentor". He's been my guide in business since 2007. He's the retired CEO of a nationally significant local textiles company, and he gives fabulous advice that always takes me out of my small, frightened mind and makes me think 500% bigger.

Those shoes look very "now" again, don't they? Someone really should be offering commercial versions.
