Ah, Gainsborough shoes - you'll have a little bit of Miami in your step whenever and wherever you wear them! These are vintage 60s high heel dance or cocktail shoes made by Gainsborough Shoes Miami. They have a closed, pointed toe, a leather sole and insole with gold embossed printing. There are woven leather cut-work designs all along the sides and vamp, a flat amber coloured rhinestone/bead detail at the vamp, and a slightly pearlized almond body with white panels, which are printed (not embossed - painted) with a paisley design in copper, colored with pale pink, blue, and yellow detail.
As our friend Jonathan Walford's post best explains about Gainsborough shoes:
http://kickshawproductions.com/blog/?p=2293
"Reader ‘Sandra’ very kindly added a link to a 1949 article she discovered that gave a little bit more information. Jack Rimler was the creator and designer of Gainsborough shoes. The shop apparently had a leopard decorated salon, and his shoes started at around $37.50 – not inexpensive. The writer asked Rimler if he thought his shoes were in good taste – to which Rimler said he considered himself one of the few who had dared to give a ‘new look’ to shoe fashions and that many of today’s better shoe salons were lacking fashion foresight. In his opinion, his shoes were as much a part of the high fashion scene as Christian Dior. “I do not create for the housewife, the rural country club woman nor the average woman who boasts only one pair of dress shoes.” The article then takes a bizarre turn regarding the morals of the women who wear his shoes – I think that’s 1949 for ‘your shoes look like they were made for a hooker’ which Rimler refuses to discuss. The writer of the article concludes that although his shoes may not be in the best of taste, that they are beautifully made of the finest materials."
