The Marabou Mule. The Chanel toe. Jackie O''s pump. Marilyn''s stiletto. And lotus shoes and fetish shoes, shoes made for coronations and inaugurations, Cinderella''s slipper, shoes of tulle, brocade, rhinestone, python, fish scales, and feathers, and much, much, more, including the two-foot-high wooden chopines of the 16th century and their resurgence as the platform shoes of the 1960s and 1970s.
