suede trimmed Italian Renaissance boot
Just in time for 12th Night. This boot is a blend of a Medieval style boot and the Renaissance boots worn in the movie Romeo and Juliet with Michael York. We added the suede detail on the cuff to give it a touch of texture and color contrast. The costume is black velvet, so the suede will have a similar degree of blackness. The whole costume will be worn to the SCA 12th Night festivities in Hemet, Ca. We put a flexible French crepe sole on them for dancing. I can’t wait to see the whole costume pulled together.
The website was decidedly fantastic! Lots of great information and enthusiasm, both of which we all need!
