Guest Posted July 31, 2004 Share Posted July 31, 2004 hmm interesting catalog. Nearly every page with heels on! Though the shoes are of a strange style. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gary0618 Posted August 7, 2004 Share Posted August 7, 2004 Interesting ad from a plastic floor tile manufacturer. Heels Sell! FLAT SHOES, LIKE FLAT DRINKS, ARE FOR FLAT PEOPLE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dawn HH Posted August 7, 2004 Share Posted August 7, 2004 Gary0618:-) I have never seen a floor material like that. I'll bet that you could get some special effects out of it depending what type of heel your shoe or boot might have and the different pressures they would exert. Very interesting!!!

greatspikeheels Posted August 7, 2004 Share Posted August 7, 2004 The heels on the dior girls always look incredible the problem is thy are not as high as they appear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xaphod Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 bounce + work in progress These adverts for shoe colouring appeared in the early '70s. Everything was going psychedelic .... including shoe colour. Seem to remember buying a pair of lime green knee hi platform boots. Pity these were thrown out in one of my 'trying to be normal' phases.

As for the lime green boots. Now that would've been something to behold my friend! Thanks for posting these delightfully retro adds Xapod,I don't often see them. May be you have a secrete stash of old Family Circle and Woman’s Day hidden away somewhere? I know most of my fashion mags only last a few months then end up on the bottom of the bird cage. lol _________________ "If I could have but one wish, it would be to live as one of your tears...To be born of your eyes, to live on your cheek, and to die on your lips."

xaphod Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 Here's one advertising the Orient Express. Yes .... the girl isn't wearing extremely high heels, but, boy does she look exotic. Here's a zoom in .... for those with stoneage connections, I'll give you a url because it's even bigger. http://65.160.96.70/hhplace/images/1053007035.jpg enjoy .....

xaphod Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 At risk of going for picture overload, here's an ad for city slickers driving 4wds. BTW, I normally scare the Chelsea set on the rare occasions I take my 4wd up to London ..... mine has a 6 month covering of s**t ! Strange, when I aim for them, they get out of the way !

xaphod Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 There's been a dearth of pics lately, so I thought I would give you something to drool over. Roger and Sarah Adams were making shoes in the early to late 80s in Brighton. Afficianados will recognise the range as 'very similar' to that of London Leatherworks.

xaphod Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 I've been meaning to scan these two A4 sides of Harvey Nicks advert, from the Sunday Times 'Style' magazine. Yes, I know they're bonkers, but, hey, I love them ! If you want to get more detail, larger files are available here (about 750k each). Some enterprising soul might try to join them back together again to create a single jpg. http://65.160.96.70/hhplace/images/1093274208.jpg http://65.160.96.70/hhplace/images/1093274537.jpg Xa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dawn HH Posted August 24, 2004 Share Posted August 24, 2004 Xaphod:-) What great ads you were able to come up with to whet our appetites for high heeled shoe pics. Fantastic.

Dawn HH Posted September 18, 2004 Share Posted September 18, 2004 BobHH:-) The legs aren't very shapely, but the sandals are great. I thought the trend was NOT to wear hosiery with sandals, although there are probably some women that do ocassionly. Cheers--- Dawn HH High Heeled Boots Forever!
