1960s Marabou Feather Bedroom Heels from Pleaser USA

by Erika

These Amour 03 heels from Pleaser USA are an exact replica of the marabou feather bedroom heels that were popular in the 1960s:

Just compare them with these pictures of authentic 1960s marabou feather bedroom heels which I found on the internet:

Black maraboue feather bedroom heels from the 1960s; brand: Norman Kaplan Las Vegas

These reminded of a scene in the movie “Down With Love” where Barbara Novak (played by Renee Zellweger) is singing in her apartment in her nightgown and wearing these heels. I found a still – the movie was also set in the 60s by the way:

The Pleaser USA Amour 3 heels would be fun to wear to bed, but I don’t think I’d be able to wear them outside of the house. Would you?

If I really had to wear feathered shoes to go out, I’d go for these from Martinez Valero instead:
