I own these shoes and will be having them dyed sapphire to wear with my wedding gown. Ornate shoes aren’t for every bride. Plain shoes and pointed toes aren’t for everyone. Those plain and pointy types certainly aren’t for me. But they are right for you. Ornate is right for me.

The first link you listed goes to a post that calls Peter Fox shoes, in general, the height of ugliness. Many of PF’s shoes are very, very plain. Does this mean that the plain shoes are the ugliest too?

I love these shoes. Rose wore them in Titanic for the dinner/dancing scenes died black, and they were worn with her “heaven” dress as well.

Peter Fox shoes are timeless and beautiful, but to each his own.

Sorry about that, Pencils. That happens to me every so often as well, but I have no clue as to why!

My post disappeared! Anyway, I like those shoes. Yes, they’re a bit overly fussy, but they’re for a wedding gown! I love Peter Fox shoes, as I love retro and old-fashioned style shoes. Before I had chosen a gown, I knew I wanted Peter Fox shoes. However, my beloved made a request: he’s not quite 2″ taller than I, and he asked that I not be taller than he on our wedding day. So…I had to find flats or shoes with no higher than 1.5″ heels. Peter Fox doesn’t have anything that low (they did have one clearance shoe, but it was too plain, and didn’t have my size anyway.) I found a gorgeous pair of Benjamin Adams shoes from the UK, which were incredibly comfy and got many compliments, but I still get wistful over Peter Fox’s Annabel and Georgina shoes.

Those shoes are waaaaaaay too fussy and baroque for the average dress or person. You’d have to be one in a million to carry those off, but I’d love to see it done right.

Gemdiva, you have a good eye. They are, indeed, something of a pastiche of 18th century styles. That said, I’ve seen 18th century pastiche shoes I’ve liked a whole lot more – and I have a particular fetish for footwear of that era.

I bought a pair of Peter Fox shoes for my wedding, and they are super duper comfy. Nice construction, worth the $$$
