All hail the king of shoes! What a great site!
Thanks so much. So glad you stopped by! Are you a collector also? Please email me and lets chat classic cj!
WOW..i'm impressed! do you have the CJ shoes from the CJ ad with the girl in the french maid outfit? it's one of my favorite shoes back then.
Hi lee,
Thanks for your compliment :) Sorry, don't have the metallic anklestrap in Bourdin's classic photo. I've seen it several times for sale; perhaps it should be added too? :)
30 years ago owned Baccara - "Auteuile" and others. Wonderful to see my favourite shoes again. Didn't realise I had a design classic at the time, don't know what I did with the shoes!. Also, looking for suede black high heel court shoe with diamante bow. Now buying on eBay!
Hi Briggitte,
Glad you can appreciate these images. CJ was so far ahead of his time :)
The mission of this blog is to digitally "Time Capsule" what once THE designer to wear~
