Two years later the brand showcased a couple of “Sun Spots” spin-off: the “Hurdy Gurdy” (actual model still to be found) and the “High Tie”. More polka dots can be found here.
Herbert Levine’s paradox pumps… how open can a closed shoe be?
… as openly exciting as these new-for-spring- silhouettes that cunningly conceal here - daringly reveal there!
Master designer Herbert Levine has created new glamour for your foot by baring your heel to show the prettiest expanse of ankle, by curving an open shank to give the illusion of longer, lovelier legs, by surprise open circles in an otherwise completely closed pump. See the collection in black patent, blue suede, lime green or bone-beige calf. 29.95 to 34.95.Democrat And Chronicle (Rochester, NY)February 3, 1959
