I first started making ice cream shoes in the 70’s. I wore a different flavor of shoes everyday. Wearing ice cream shoes to school, kind of upset my instructors at the art center college of design. I just thought they were fun. I made some ice cream shoes for donald pliner of the right bank shoe store in Beverly Hills, California. I was told that Elton John, and Cher bought a pair.
Later I moved to New York City after I graduated from school, wearing a banana split costume. Walking down the street in New York, the owners of Fiorucci fell in love with my shoes, and I designed a window display for their Fiorucci store with the Ice cream shoes as part of the display.’
These Ice cream boots are now being displayed at Royal T in Culver City, California USA. They are available in different flavours!
