Description

Step back in time with the delicious Primrose 18th century shoes. This authentic embroidered satin design has been recreated in collaboration with The Bata Shoe Museum, capturing the look and feel of the original shoes from 1770s-1790s. Made on the Dunmore last and 2 inch / 5 cm heel, you can be sure that style doesn't mean sacrificing comfort.

The Primrose 18th century shoes are part of the "In Bloom" collection developed with the Bata Shoe Museum. Every pair of Primroses sold benefits this important collection and supports Bata in their study, outreach, and conservation.

Primrose does not come with 18th century shoe buckles. You may find our complete selection of 18th century shoe buckles in the accessories section. Please see our page on how to fit your buckles, or watch our shoe buckle fitting video for more information.

Though the antiques were made in silk, our shoes are made in a durable and cleanable polyester satin, the ideal choice for footwear built to last. Spritz your shoes with Angelus Water & Stain Repellent to keep them in good condition and looking swell.

Beautiful shoes true to size one of a kind

I already owned a different color way in these shoes and when the bastille day sale had them half their usual price I snapped up two other colorways the pink and the black. They are beautiful. The fit is the same size I wear I. All my American duchess shoes I own which is over 10… I have been buying shoes from this company from the beginning owning a couple of the exclusives they produced and earlier designs. These shoes do require buckles that you purchase seperately but I just have a few and switch in those rather than having a buckle set for every shoe. I usually portray middle to lower class colonial but have drawled over these kind of shoes in museums and they do do with my higher end colonial and costume wear

Perfect 18th C Shoe

I love these shoes. I purchased the black and pink and they are beautiful and well made. I am a speaker for DAR groups and I do a program where I dress to show how an 18th c woman dressed each day. It's lots of fun. I needed a new pair of shoes that were accurate and pretty. These are exactly what I wanted. My only regret is that I did not at first order the buckles with the shoes. As an old reenactor I have a selection of buckles and I thought at least one pair would work. Alas, none of them looked right so I ordered the Fleur and they arrived today. They complete the look of the shoe. My advice would be buy the shoes with the buckles that match, you won't regret it. :)
