The last pink accessory - for now at least.
As I mentioned more than once (I am sure), that as a reenactor, with historical attires, accessories are probably the hardest thing, especially shoes.
Yes, there are a few place you can order some, but there is always a risk. You never know, if it is going to fit you or not, if the quality would worth the price or not.
Early last year, I found a shoemaker, who made me a fairly low heeled, but high victorian boots that I use for my sports attire. Then I gave him the next task.
Make me shoes that look like rococo shoes, but comfortable, and comforst should include heels, that cannot be "high", higher than 2-3 cm.
I collected a big Pinterest board, showed him the shapes I loved, the height I hope I can still walk in, and he set out to work.
He made me the first pair from black, to wear with the Maria Theresa gown.
and I loved them so much I wanted another pair, in pastel color. The shoemaker told me, than it is best of I choose the leather myself, and tol me to go to Légrádi Zoltán, so I did.
I swear, I did not meant to get PINK shoes. I did not. But when I saw that pink leather I lost it, and decided, that I WILL have pink shoes to go with my pink dress.
The shoes were made by József Zombori @Baktócipő
