The Virtual Shoe Museum was initiated by Liza Snook in 2005. Once the idea was born, a long search began for designers, photographers and publishers connected to shoes. New friendships developed and our mailbox filled with loads of material on fantastic shoes, art and design on shoes.
After months of designing, programming and searching for extraordinary shoes Virtual Shoe Museum 2.0 goes live in February 2012. On Valentines day version 2.0 will launch officially.
This 14th of February it will be exactly seven years since the start of the Virtual Shoe Museum. Our new website will provide more shoe, art and design information through our blog. The layout and navigation have been updated and social media have been integrated. Visitors are now able to make their own favourite selection of shoes and in a couple of months there will be a museum shop.
We connect designers and shoe lovers, we connect curators of exhibitions and we supply shoe images for calendars and shoe books. We will expand the video reports about interesting shoe events, interviews with designers and shoe collectors. We want to create a traveling exhibitions of virtual shoes, made by artists and designers on invitation. We are full of new shoe plans (apps, books, products) so we are investigating lots of new cooperations with other shoe maniacs, designers and museums. And of course as shoe book collectors we would like to make the ultimate shoe book! So keep visiting our website and we will keep you posted!
When you have new shoe designs, questions or suggestions in response to our new website please tell us.
