I don’t usually read my old school’s newsletter but I did today and it led me to this.
It’s such a beautiful day in Toronto! We’ve got spring fever here at the Bata Shoe Museum!
Our notable people podcast series continues with the shoes of Queen Victoria.
1920 dresses in the exhibition “The Roaring Twenties: Heels, Hemlines and High Spirits”
So excited to present a show of the work of Viver starting in May 2012!
Roger Vivier…
Shoes of Roger Vivier made in leather of alligator, painted in black (the classic shoes of Holly Golightly).
Audrey wore this shoe from 1960 until about 1964.- Detail of Audrey photographed for publicity of the film: “Breakfast at Tiffany’s” (1961).
Not everyone gets to visit here - but it’s a pretty special experience for those who do! The Bata Shoe Museum storage rooms!
