How do you gals feel about chopines, then?  Would you like to see chopines added to our shop?  A seedling of an idea - velvet, moderate platform, without heavy trims, so you can decorate your own.  Thoughts?

Here are some originals that are quite inspiring...

Bata Shoe Museum - late 16th c.
The Met - 1590 - 1610
The Met - 1550-1650
MFA - possibly 1740s
