In Italian scarpa means shoe while 'arpa' is the harp... Combined this makes 'scArpa'. It should be a 'somptous shoe' so I decided to fill it with lace and decorate it as a real harp.

Fancy walking with the sound of a gostly air that crosses and moves the strings of the heels...

The Manifestation Of Glee, the name pretty much says it all. It can be referred to as and eye vitamin if you will, but The Manifestation Of Glee is not just some placebo effect. It truly works. It’s fun, happy, joyful, to be honest, it’s just good for you. It’s origins goes back to the bare essentials of the creative spirit. The conception of ever idea, where the first spark of creativity is ignited and leads to something beautiful and tangible. The goal is to capture this explosive, illusive moment of gleeful, giddiness, bottle it and share it with the happy masses.
 
The Manifestation Of Glee can be described as happy fashion for the serious fashion lover. This translates into a culmination of vivid colours and unpredictable patterns leading to an unexpected yet cheerful end result.

Finland post stamp, released on May 6th 2009.

Minna Parikka’s red high heels (Starlet) can be seen on one of the stamps of the Fashion miniature sheet. They are accompanied by beautiful shoes by Julia Lundsten. Lundsten’s stylish signature wooden heels have won the admiration even of the king of shoe designers, Manolo Blahnik, who has called them “divine” and “perfect”. The wooden-heeled pump shown on the stamp is made of fish skin. Lundsten’s creations are sold in Tokyo, London, New York and other great cities. The miniature sheet features elegant accessories in the form of the Lumi handbag designed by Sanna Kantola. Sanna Kantola and Bruno Beaugrand founded the Lumi brand in New York nine years ago, and today Lumi bags are sold in 25 countries.
Fashion designer Jasmin Santanen lives and works in Paris. This spring she unveiled at the Paris fashion festival a luxurious open party outfit, which has now been immortalised on a stamp.
This year’s spring collection also includes an outfit designer by Tuomas Laitinen and his sister, artist Anna Laitinen, the rear view of which is shown on the Fashion miniature sheet. This angle was chosen because of the outfit’s amusing “penguin cut”. A collection by the Laitinens won shared first place in the prestigious French Hyères fashion design competition in France in 2006. Today the LAITINEN accessory brand is sold in France, Japan, Hong Kong and elsewhere. The woman in purple on the left-hand edge of the miniature sheet is a filler picture. Laura Laine produced the illustrations for the miniature sheet.

Who said typography could not be sexy ?

When the elegance of typography meets the extravagance of fashion, it gives Alfashion. Alfashion is a stiletto typeface inspired by the surrealist game 'Exquisite Corpse' (Cadavre Exquis). The game is played as a group of players, each player adding a piece to a design, one at a time. Each participant ignores what the others are adding to the design.

The combination of unexpected or mismatching shapes creates a new design, an hybrid of fashion and typography.

The poster image for the Dutch literature festival 'Het Voorwoord' (the preface), with as theme 'The Human Zoo' features a pig wearing ultramarin/turqouise/purple Blahniks. I'm not so sure she's actually wearing them: after drawing the pig halfway, leaving the feet (paws) unfinished, I replaced the toes with - quickly googled- blahniks. She is standing on shoes without having feet. Maybe she is dreaming herself Blahniks as a means of materialising her great and gracious and light-weight self-experience right that moment. Who knows. We all have an appearance on the outside and an inner self-experience which don't necessarily pair. This huge, pink, voluptuous lady is a star for now. After finishing the drawing another thing stroke me: she has a kind of Virgin Mary-look in her eyes as we see in paintings, a virgin look all-over, that actually does not at all match her shoes. High heels are not for good girls. But hers are blue: the virgin's colour.

Who said typography could not be sexy ?

When the elegance of typography meets the extravagance of fashion, it gives Alfashion. Alfashion is a stiletto typeface inspired by the surrealist game 'Exquisite Corpse' (Cadavre Exquis). The game is played as a group of players, each player adding a piece to a design, one at a time. Each participant ignores what the others are adding to the design.

The combination of unexpected or mismatching shapes creates a new design, an hybrid of fashion and typography.

Not with your shoes in the bed!

Our family wears shoes in the house as part of being civilized. My neighbours downstairs leave their shoes outside on the doorstep for the same reason. Animal skin tied to your feet in order to be civilized and human, or as a shield to protect your body and home from unhuman dirt. When visiting my parents, they sometimes seem so much in work-mode, I imagine they will forget to take their shoes off when going to bed. But even so, never with your shoes in the bed! Civilization doesn't fall asleep when you do. This is a drawing from the 2008 Dutch literature festival 'Het Voorwoord' booklet, with 'on old people and things passing-by' for a theme.

Cees' Boots, London 11.11.08

Cees always dresses in jeans, T-shirt and jacket on top of big sturdy boots that add to his casual appearance a Crocodile Dundee-credibility. We were waiting in a lobby, I drew his boots and he entrusted me that he only has one real pair of boots. All others do look like cowboy boots but are in fact no more than ankle-high. Not half as tough - but twice as comfortable.

Arntz’s clear-cut style suited Neurath’s goals perfectly, and so he invited the young artists to come to Vienna in Gerd Arntz designed around 4000 signs, which symbolized key data from industry, demographics, politics and economy, for the visual language Isotype.

This informative and educational website is initiated by Ontwerpwerk design bureau and is realized in close cooperation with Peter Arntz, son of Gerd Arntz, and the Municipal Museum of The Hague, administrator of the Gerd Arntz archive.

Cinderella beats, The Hague 09.08

On a small stage near the city centre, two friends (percussion, sax) performed with a New York beat poet. It was a sunny, warm and blue sky afternoon outside, and in the dark backroom she did an apocalyptic poem about New York breaking down, panic and the end of the world as we know it.
The best thing about it were her perspex stiletto's: what prince would wish and dare kiss this angry afro Cinderella?

In 2000 I saw a documentary about the Royal College of Art on BBC2 that  focused on a course called Design Products. There was an artist on the course and the projects seemed to be very conceptual, ideas based, so I decided to apply.

When I walked into the interview room there were about six people standing around a table looking at my sketchbooks. A man said ’show me your shoes, show me your shoes!’ This confused me at first but later I learned that he was refering to a drawing in my sketchbook (shown above). This man turned out to be Ron Arad, a famous designer and architect. Luckily I was accepted on the course based on this and my other sketched ideas.

Home of the Virtual Show Museum

Please read our Terms and conditions for using this website.

The Virtual Shoe Museum was initiated by Liza Snook in 2004. Once the idea was born, a long search began for designers, photographers and publishers connected to shoes. New friendships developed and our mailbox filled with loads of material on fantastic shoes, art and design on shoes.

And finally, with the help of Taco Zwaanswijk of Interactive Affairs, who designed the site, and Bart van der Ploeg of Resolume, who programmed the database and created the content management system, we're live! And proud! And we're only just beginning...

If you have any questions about the collection, or leads on shoes or designers, please let us know. Also, we're interested in your opinion on the collection and your experiences in the museum. You can contact the Virtual Shoe Museum by mail: Liza@VirtualShoeMuseum.com.

The Virtual Shoe Museum has different 'perspectives' on a shoe or object. These perspectives (designer, focus, colour, material, etc) show related objects and thus ways to navigate the collection.

The left column of the screen contains the main navigation. Each perspective contains several 'rooms'. Each room contains thumbnails of the objects it contains (on the right side of the screen). Choose any to view this object.

On an object's page, below the image, you can view more images, video and text (if available). Above the thumbnails, you find a list showing all the rooms this object belongs to. Here you can wander the rooms and find related objects.
