Before Charlotte Olympia, there was Enzo of Roma...

Hi Everyone,

Finally found a pair of Enzo of Roma! These little puppies are so collectible but I cannot find them online to get the decade. The shop was making animal flats from 1960-1990's. I have found puppies from the 1980's which are very sleek with black patent and polka dots but extensive searching has found none like mine. I am thinking they must be earlier as they seem a bit rougher and the material thicker and heavier.

Any Enzo of Roma fans out there?

Helen

Can you show the heel? I would have said they were well into the 80's.
To look at the change in shape for dating other more profilic brands doing the same novelty applique pumps around this time are Tokio Kumagai (very similar animals), Zalo, Beverly Feldman, Margaret Jerrold, Gomez Rivas.
Here are my 1970's Enzo's:

It's funny when I purchased these I couldn't find any info on Enzo of Roma...

Here are the shots of the heels. I ran into a stylist familiar with Enzo of Roma this evening at a fashion event and she has never seen these puppies before!

How adorable!

(And I've learned of something new to look out for!)
