The Astorias have done super awesome, and both the ivory and black colors are going in to production in a few days.
Surprisingly, the black Astorias sold better than the ivory, which leads me to believe that black shoes are in-demand, so you can expect more black historical footwear in the future. :-)
You will still be able to purchase Astorias after the pre-sale ends, for the regular price ($135). They will still be delivered in early April. The only difference is the price and the stock is now limited, because I've put in the order with the factory already.
Pre-Ordering will stay open until 12 am Pacific Standard Time. Here is the link:

I am so excited to get mine! I've been on a bit of a Downton Abbey kick lately and I've been making a point of looking at their shoes. Do you think you would ever do a satin Astoria? Or silk?
ReplyDeleteCaroline, it is definitely a possibility. Astoria in black or ivory silk would be yuummmmmm
DeleteTotally yum!
DeleteWell, I would have liked one of each but.... I could only choose one. :-(
ReplyDeletewhew, thanks for the reminder! I cut it close!
ReplyDeleteI bought the black ones - in the photos, the white ones somehow look a little "cheap/plasticy" next to the black ones - I'm sure they are the same in quality, that's just how they appear. Plus I just found a pair of white lace shoes that are pretty Edwardian looking, so ordering black was a no-brainer for me. :)
and yes, satin would be great.
Beth, black is a great choice, although I can assure you there is nothing cheap nor plastic-y about the ivory. I think it is just because you cannot see the detail in the leather on the ivory, whereas you can on the black. :-)
