Product Description

Step up for this delightful and attractive book on international, high fashion footwear. Over 300 eye-popping, platform shoe styles, shown in color photographs, demonstrate the creative spirit in shoe design. Colorful and provocative, these shoes span the globe and the decades and include snake skin, fur, glitter, colored leather, woven raffia and fabric materials. These fun and daring designs come from every part of the world and include sporty, daytime and evening styles, tie-ups, clogs, boots, slip-ons and many sandals with ankle straps, some practical and others simply outrageous. Estimated values are included.

4.0 out of 5 stars Rise to a new height!, April 16, 2000
By Rhonda (Hong Kong) - See all my reviews
Absolutely fantastic book! Perfect for the platform shoe lover - especially me! Features the author's collection of platform shoes - including non-wearable novelties - leaving you wanting to own every pair on the pages! Divided into 8 chapters including "Novelties", "Sling backs" and my favourite - "Ankle straps". There are shoes with sculpted heels, beaded uppers, springs, wheels and every kind of fabric available. Also shown are the rare and hard to find products with pictures of platform shoes printed on such as record covers and even a jacket. Brilliant pictures, little text, not very informative but a good read all the same.
