Pirates, peasants, pagans and princesses all know that the proper shoes or boots can add the convincing final toch to any costume. Do we mourn the passing of leather as the main material for shoes and boots? No, not at all. Modern, man made shoe and boot materials can be processed in a variety of creative ways that all add up to inexpensive FUN, regardless of whether crazy colors, fantastic forms or daring decoration are the main attraction. And if you want historical accuracy, reach into your wallet and then reach out for tried and true leather shoes.
Why do we call these platform shoes with shiny, red stiletto heels and a rose decoration “Black Widow” shoes? Black widow spiders have large venom sacs that make them extremely dangerous to humans, and when these spiders have any markings at all, they are bright red. Males beware! The approx. 2 cm platforms plus approx. 12 cm high stiletto heels add up to a killer shoe. They are covered in black satin and an approx. 6 cm rose made of black satin and lace decorates the vamp. The red heels have rounded spurs at the back – for a touch of visual excitement!
