1930s Marylee Bective Brown Suede and Cutwork Shoes

A very finely preserved example of 1930s USA footwear design, these coffee-brown suede shoes have machine embroidered pale creamy brown cutwork detailing that curves gracefully around the sides and front, giving the appearance of lace. The toe features a softly rounded brogue-style cap, while a small frill of matching suede trims the front for a feminine touch. Finished with a 7 cm heel and labelled Marylee Bective in gold script inside. The soles have a Phillips Extra Light Stick-a-Sole added, possibly around the same time, for extra grip and protection.

These remarkable shoes are in truly excellent vintage condition with no flaws to the suede and embroidery. Only very light wear noted to the original leather heels and internal leather sole. They are labelled a US size 8.5B and this equates to a UK 5.5 or slightly narrower UK 6.
