About the Item
Herman Delman was the glitterati's preferred footwear designer in the 1940s and 50s, having made Queen Elizabeth II's coronation pumps in 1953. Synonymous with footwear innovation, the Delman brand was responsible for designs like gladiator sandals that we take for granted today. This gorgeous pair of platform sandals showcases Delman's penchant for revealing the foot and conjures images of Carmen Miranda.
