Nine West
I love Nine West's shoes for their generally very classic designs for reasonable prices. These shoes are a little bit different. They're not as simple as a lot of the shoes Nine West carries. These shoes feel very 30's or 40's in their style, I think it's the t-strap and the detail on top of the toe. These make me think of swing dancing--until I see the heel. The heel is anything but old-fashioned with its sleek lines and height. Certainly not a dancing heel, though I suspect some could manage. The fact that it's natural wood (on the brown shoe), both the heel and the sole, brings the look together, keeping the heel from looking ultramodern and helping it to blend in with the rest of the shoe. Also the grain of the wood connects nicely with the stripes in the leather to make a continuous line. This is a very well-designed shoe. I would wear these shoes with a vintage brown, yellow, and orange print dress with a tight bodice and flared from the waist skirt. Pearls and 40's hair complete the look. Wear them to a swing club and dance if you dare, or go to a jazz club, drink a martini with an olive (which would color coordinate nicely), and show them off with neatly crossed legs covered in silk stockings.

Posted by: Danielle Butera on April 23, 2003 07:10 PMI am still waiting for Nine West aka Capezio to make me a pair of tstrap flats from the late 50's, early 60's. Anyone else who loved these shoes, please follow my lead and try to get these shoes back on the market. I wear a size 8-8-1/2. They came in a lot of colors and had very deep toe cleavage. Please Nine West, can you help me. I know these shoes have been discontinued for a number of years, but someone at your company said you still have the mold. I know others who would be interested. Thank you. Please respond.
