100% dyable silk shoes!

Right, spreading the word here. American Duchess has a new prototype for “Georgiana” 18th Century 100% dyable silk shoes. While they may be a little out of our era, I think the fact that they are lower heals and dyable would make them of interest to the (Upper class) ladies here! The thing is, they have to sell 100 pairs pre-sale or they won't ( Read more... )

I wonder if they can be dyed two tone, the buckle changed to a cog, and a spat over it for the boot look when one would like to.

i'll bet you could block off the part you don't want the color and spray or paint with silk dyes....

Be careful if you get them dyed. I had dyed shoes once and as I was dancing and my feet started to sweat (or when I stepped in a puddle) the dye seeped into my feet. Then again, they were sandal type shoes and that was several years ago, so it may be different now (or with different brands).
