I used to buy Ravel shoes back in the day …

Me too. Used to go down the Kings Road and buy mine. They used to last years. Also used to buy shoes from Madrid Shoes down Brompton Road.

I had a lovely pair of dark green velvet shoes from Ravel that I had saved up for weeks to buy. Alas, I took a short cut home over a field after a night out and the next morning my lovely shoes had changed into two mud pies, thereafter consigned to the bin lol.

Green velvet shoes - how pretty.

They were! Of their time of course (80's). Now I have a pair of green velvet boots from Joe Browns which live in a box in the top of the wardrobe. I should let someone else have a go at wearing them but they are so nice I can't bear to sell them.

In the early 70s I worked in Lilley and Skinner, which then claimed to be the biggest shoe shop in the world! ?? I wonder? I bought purple suede boots with my discount, thought I was the bees knees! In later years I too loved Ravel, and Dolcis.
