Posted on May 23rd, 2008 by Shomore under Friday Shoe History CornerThese chandelier heels look like they could easily have come off the spring 2008 runways, especially since heel decorations are all the rage this season. Their real age? The chandelier shoes are from 1957.

The shoes are fantastic but the easy giveaway is the height of the heel–they look so tame by today’s insane standards.
But are those some serious runs in her hosiery?

I think it’s the way stockings were seamed and reinforced in the 1950s. But I had the same thought at first.
