About MeThese shoes were worn at a wedding at Rutherford Parish Church, Aberdeen in June 1960. The reception was held at the Amatola Hotel on Great Western Road. It was the bride's second wedding, which may have influenced her choice of colour and style.These size 40 satin court shoes have pointed toes and leather stiletto heels. They are lined in canvas throughout with a full insole of cream leather.
