Here’s a riddle for you! What is one of the two exclamation points of an outfit? Look at the toes of historical clothing to uncover the answer at our special footwear ‘touch table’ on one of the last weekends you can see Walk This Way: Footwear from the Stuart Weitzman Collection of Historic Shoes.

Join Raissa Bretaña, fashion historian and DiMenna Children’s History Museum Living Historian, for a journey into yesterday’s looks. Explore original and reproduction shoes from long ago and discover how they were made, sold, or worn in the past!
