"My shoes are like Hitchcock Blondes. Like Kim Novak and Grace Kelly, they have a distinct look that is mysterious and beautiful. Each one tells a story,"
With a collection of vintage designer shoes that once exceeded 500 pairs, Bettye Muller is what you might call a connoisseur. She created her first small collection of shoes while living in London in the 1980s.
When she returned to the States, Bettye designed shoes for labels including L'Emporio, Henri Bendel, & Marc Jacobs. Since they're unique, her shoes aren't for just anyone. Attracting modern-day blondes from Katie Couric to Cameron Diaz, the artist says that women who wear her pieces must have a great sense of self and a distinct style.
"They're a statement, so the women who wear them must be very confident," she says.
