The Orange Shoe — Hand-Embroidered Vintage Cat Photograph

Description

A little fashion, a little mischief, and a very curious cat.

This one-of-a-kind textile artwork transforms a wonderfully strange vintage black-and-white photograph into a playful piece of hand embroidery. A fluffy white cat peers from behind a woman’s leg while an elegant high-heeled shoe becomes the unexpected star of the image.

The shoe has been embroidered by hand in vivid orange and turquoise thread, with a dimensional blue pom-pom adding an extra bit of texture and whimsy. The bright orange mat continues the color beyond the photograph, turning the tiny vintage scene into a bold piece of contemporary textile art.

The combination of vintage fashion, historical photography, and surreal embroidery gives the piece a sense of humor while still celebrating the beautiful details of dress and accessories found in old photographs.
