Just pulled this off Facebook (Midcentury Fashion) as I thought it was pretty neat! "Salvatore Ferragamo in the 1950s with made-to-measure shoe lasts for high profile clients. He studied anatomy at the University of Southern California to learn how to make his shoes more comfortable."
Wow! Amanda, you find the neatest photos of such interesting things! Keep posting.....I truly enjoy seeing them.
Great post Amanda!. I was very lucky to visit the Ferragamo museum in Florence back in 2008, as part of the Costume Colloquium . Oh my- so many amazing shoes! This was my favourite pair, in hand painted canvas from the 1930's.
