Louis XIV and his clothes - especially shoes!!

Now this is just a sidebar here but when I read the post of my co-author regarding Louis XIV's buttons and the incredible amount of money he spent just on buttons, well, I had to google Louis XIV's wardrobe.


As soon as it came up I forgot about his buttons - do definitely check out his shoes!  I would give anything to be walking around in some of those pumps, although they really don't go with mountain living, chainsawing, or the like ...
