YEAH!! Went to the shoes maker studio sample sale today and got exactly everything i needed! 6 shoes lasts for £40!! and almost 4 kgs of cow leather for £60. YEAY! crack on with making tonight, so excited!!!!!
The shoe maker John was so generous and helpful, ended up chucking good size off cuts of leather into my shopping, free free free :D For some reason they were avoiding saying they make shoes for Vivienne westwoods but there’s logoed boxes and packagings all over the studio…
John also mentioned he makes custom made shoes for as little as 1 pairs, didn’t ask how much they’d cost tho. There’s very few women’s shoe makers studio in Britian, so few that MIU MIU had to make their shoes with Church’s who is better known for men’s shoes making. So yeah, very happy to meet you John, surely will be asking for some custom shoes to be made soon :)
