Facts and froth with Jill Lowe
A Mile in your Shoes
I LOVE SHOES.
I love walking in shoes. Shoes complete a look. But so importantly, shoes make me walk a certain way. The gait with some confidence, an air of authority, can give me a demeanor of “I have miles to go, things to do, and who knows how much time do I have?” I have a collection of many types of shoes, of course none as far back as Chopines - those platform shoes from 16th century in Italy, or even shoes worn by Manchu women in China in c.1800, such as depicted at the Bata Shoe Museum in Toronto, Canada.
