If all goes according to plan, my (hopefully) exquisite new footwear range will launch THIS SATURDAY!
Keep your eyes peeled for a couple of advance images here - you may recognise some of the names of my various styles from our colourful court (and I don't just mean the Artois buckles!)
~NOUVEAU! ~
In addition to my former note and due to popular demand, here is a sneak preview of three styles from the range
la Noailles ~ A chic backless mule in silk damask, with moire bows in pale blue. Embellished with lace, pearl embroidery and silver buckles and balanced on mother-of-pearl heels.
la Brouille ~ I didn't call myself 'Bottier de Fantaisie' for nothing! Smothered with peacock-feather embroidery and bristling with quivvering quills at the toe, these are the perfect accessory for any woman (or indeed any fashion-forward gentilehomme!)
la Tancarville ~ These are designed for men, but would be the perfect accompaniment to any lady's dashing Amazone at the hunt! Executed with a lavish pearl-embellished bows, the silk ribbon of the Tancarville is offered in four different colourways. The heel is red, of course - in 1673 Louis XIV passed an edict permitting nobles of the correct geological qualifications to wear red heeled shoes as an outward sign of their privilege and rank. And they look fabulous too!
More to come tomorrow, when the range officially launches!

I have seen them and must admit that this will be THE must have for every gentleman
)It is really comforting to see the Royal Courts bursting with new talents and creativity!
