Friends, we’re thrilled to introduce you to our final pre-order collection of 2026 (gasp!): the Boots First, Then Corset collection. This grand finale of the year features four delightfully distinctive styles carefully recreated from historical originals.
Our Boots First, Then Corset collection is 15% off each style through Nov. 22. Let’s meet them, shall we?
Eve Boots
Say hello to Eve: unless she renders you speechless, that is! This fabulous knee-high Edwardian boot is dramatic, curvaceous, and oh-so-seductive. We think she’s truly one of the most special styles we’ve ever made! Based on the elaborate and sensual tall boots of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Eve has a close fit and curves luxuriously around the leg. Eve is built on the same Edwardian last as our Edith boots, with our custom 3″/7.62 cm French spool heel. A beautifully shaped top and delicate brogued details complete this sensational boot. Take your time lacing them up- it’s an experience well worth it! Just make sure your corset is already on, of course. Eve comes with two sets of laces for increased adjustability.
If you wish to lace Eve tightly for a skintight fit, we suggest using a button hook. Slip the hook end under where the laces cross and pull for extra leverage. Eve comes in both standard and wide widths, in stunning glossy black.
Sybil Boots
Bring some 1910s-era sophistication to your wardrobe with Sybil! Based on period originals from circa 1916, Sybil is an elegant, lace-up boot with a curvaceous shaped top. Designed to be seen with the ankle-skimming skirts of the time, Sybil features a squared-off round toe and a delicate toecap. Sybil comes ladder laced, inspired by period fashion plates- and you can wear the laces criss-crossed as well for a different look. Supple leather uppers come in tone-on-tone and two-tone colorways. Built on a custom 1910s reproduction last, Sybil features a beautifully balanced 2.5”/6.35 cm French spool heel. Get Sybil in ivory/black, perforated black/black, and olive green/espresso.
Lydia Shoes
It is a truth universally acknowledged that every Regency fashion enthusiast must be in want of an intriguing pair of shoes. Lydia is a distinctive early 19th-century strapped shoe like you’ve never seen before! Lydia is based on period shoes made in the Regency era Neoclassical style. Leather straps fitted with elastic cross gracefully over the foot. Like the originals, Lydia has a soft toebox and heel cup. Lydia’s ankle straps tie around the back of the ankle, for an adjustable fit. Unsealed leather soles are fitted with a rubber half-sole and a period-accurate spring heel. Select from pale blue, espresso, and ivory. Lydia is available in both standard and wide widths.
Rome Boots
Adventure awaits with Rome, a do-it-all Edwardian boot that completes any footwear collection. Based on period originals, these boots are designed for everyday wear and all manner of activities. Rome has a low, stable, 0.75″/2 cm heel and a rounded toebox. A brogued toecap adds visual interest to this versatile boot. Soft leather uppers and front facing lace-up closures look perfect peeking out from under your hem. Or, pair them with your favorite trousers and jeans! Rome comes in black, walnut, and olive green, and is available in both standard and wide widths.
