Shoes for Show

Today I went to Brick Lane's Loading Bay for the Shoes for Show exhibition.  The event is the online shoe store Javori's first exhibition. 



Simple layout in a white space with the shoes freely on display made the atomsphere even more special. 


From Louboutin's to Turkish Bath shoes dating back to the 1890's, the collection was small but unique & spectacular.
Split into 3 catorgories; Shoes for Catwalk, Shoes for Couture & Innovative Design in Footwear; the heels varied in colour, heel height & style but all had the same WOW factor. 

The exhibition finishes tomorrow but if you can get along to Brick Lane in time I strongly reccommend it!


I have included a few of my own photos and further down some professional ones from mission on the launch night...
just a little photo of what I wore from the knee down - loved
