H-costumers, My new chopines have been finished for a month or so now. They're quite a challenge to walk in. They've got their own webpage, too. You can scroll thru and see how they were done. My chopines are the tall red ones. http://AandS.org/raisedheels/index.html I've started dancing in them, lately. Mostly bassedanza & pavans. --cin Cynthia Barnes [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I was fitted for my new chopines last nite. You can see a picture of the cork structure with the undyed footbed, and my fabric here: http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/hysteria95126/my_photos The album is "Works in Progress". The chopines are part of the 2nd set. Woo-hoo I will soon ascend to the heights of fashion! BTW, ladies & gents, have you seen this? There's a lovely yellow velvet 16th c chopine 360' view with zoom. Look at the tooled leather footbed. That's different! The chopine's all covered in lace & silk ribbon bows. http://www.allaboutshoes.ca/en/heights_of_fashion/east_meets_west/ This is the Bata Shoe Museum's new online catalog. Oddly you cant get to All About Shoes from the Bata Shoe Museum's or the reverse. It's new, and that's the reason, I suppose. --cin Cynthia Barnes [EMAIL PROTECTED]
