Pre-Order the Classics Collection

What have your friends at American Duchess been working on over the summer, you ask? Well, now that September is in full swing, we can finally reveal our first fall pre-order styles: introducing the Classics Collection, available for 15% off when you pre-order through September 28!

Meet Doris, Rita and Jean, three beautiful 1920s and 1930s reproduction shoes that have been intentionally designed to embody elegance, versatility, comfort, and style. Each one of these lovely shoes is available in an array of period colors, in both B and D width.

Jean Vintage Oxfords

If you have been looking for a quintessential 1930s style shoe with a touch of Art Deco flair to fit seamlessly into your wardrobe, you will be thrilled with Jean! This chic and smart little oxford is pierced with a symmetrical perforated motif, with shapes reminiscent of Art Deco architecture. You have a choice between uppers in all smooth leather, or uppers with coordinating colors in smooth leather and suede. Jean is built on a new 1930s last, developed to be cute and comfy with a rounded toe and a new, perfectly balanced 2.5″/6.35 cm Cuban heel. Pair Jean with your favorite 1930s and 1940s ensembles, or with your favorite contemporary pieces for a touch of vintage flair. Jean is available in black, cordovan, mist grey, and huckleberry, in both B and D width.

Rita Vintage Oxfords

Rita is a bit of a fraternal twin sister to Jean. Also built on our new 1930s last and Cuban heel, this shoe is subtly stylish and exquisitely detailed. Rita’s lush suede uppers are bedecked with a gorgeous, artistic, perfectly 1930s perforated design. Color coordinated leather foxing complements Rita with added visual interest. Our new 2.5″/6.35 cm Cuban heel is sturdy and ready for all-day wear, without sacrificing the vintage style we all so crave. Plus, just like Jean, Rita is available in both B and D width! Choose from French blue, blush pink, black, and garnet red.

Doris 1920s Pumps

Behold, the 1920s day-to-night shoe you have been dreaming of. This little T-strap pump is rife with fabulous details. Just check out the piecing on the strap up the instep- splendid! Smooth leather intertwines with python-embossed leather or suede in evocative 1920s-inspired color combinations, set off by a finely pointed strap and a functional button closure. Doris is built on a new, comfy, almond-toed 1920s last, with a low and stable 1.75″/4.45 cm Cuban heel. Doris is available in both B and D width, in five lovely colorways: black, brown/tan, navy/black, chartreuse/olive, and blush pink.
