Filling in the missing details again: These are women's white kid high-button boots made by the Excelsior Button & Boot Co. circa 1870. Notable detail; the slot about midway up the upper between the 5th & 6th buttons. #victorianfashion #highbuttonboots #boothistory #victorianladiesboots
I had a pretty extensive thread on the subject last Friday. The late Victorian and Edwardian eras produced some of the fanciest, sexiest women's boots ever. #fashionhistory #boothistory #edwardianfashion #victorianfashion #footwearhistory #highbuttonboots
Boots like these were clearly made to be worn as part of an evening ensemble. #latevictorianfashion #1890sfashion #boothistory #eveningboots #belleepoquefashion
Actress Victoria Prinicipal, #BOTD 1950, best-known for her role in "Dallas"; I don't recognize the film offhand but she's wearing a checked miniskirt with rather unusual white boots (for the early 70's) cut low in the back and high in the front. #actress #fashionhistory #boothistory #70sfashion
