I wana make a shoe that is a combination of derby and sock, with welted sole, like a sock that attached on the derby. ofcoz the sock is not plain at all, im thinking to do some embroidery on it. maybe some large circle pattern. and i have to find those sock material, like "starchy cotton". Normally they are like this:

(Leg warmer can take off, but i think the button is not good looking if you wear it without the leg warmer)
But i want my sock to be sewn in the shoe, which means the sock is not able to take off.

i love this idea, i think its cute and it can so call a "boot", and the cost ofcoz lower than a real tall boot, as the leather cost much. i have to lower my cost as much as i can! coz my target market is mainstream - affordable lux, abt £150-£300 .

will that be my main piece? let see.

Embroidered Shoes

With much more research of embroidery, i found that it can be a cool element on shoes rather than a traditional chinese shoes! I love it so much, but im still thinking how to apply on footwear in a modern way with my style.

What pattern should i embroider? and where should i get it done?
Can it be on the leather?

I will find the answer out very soooooooon, as im now struggling with my concept development!!!!! ROAR!
