Sexy Victoriana - a list by Gamine

Options for This Page

About this list:

Primly sexy and demurely naughty. The Victorian Age for 21st century sensibilities seems to have taken hold of the imaginations of shoe designers. Spring 2008 brings us many oxfords and booties, with cut-outs galore.

Description

The fact that they left the tongue in this shoe is supposed to be playful I guess. I find it a little odd, but the shoe is still very attractive.

In Victorian times, I'm sure these boots would've screamed, "Loose woman," but today I think they merely state that you're stylish.

L.A.M.B. 'Gianira' Peep Toe Oxford

First to recommend

Description

Victorian women used to suffer for beauty by trying to achieve the "perfect" 21 inch waist through wearing corsets from a young age. You'll probably be carrying on that tradition in these shoes and their 4 1/4 inch heel. Do I think the 1 inch platform is going to really do anything to mitigate your pain? No. But don't despair, you're going to look fabulous.
