  2. I think I've seen the dancer design on the forefoot of the sole on Capulet shoes. I can't confirm it, because somehow Pointeshoe.net is down.

  3. Paul, you're correct... the shoes are Freeds. Good for you!

    Eric, the line of stitching under the throat of the vamp is usually a sign that the shoes are Freed Chassics.

    Paul S... I missed your participation.

  4. Jill,

    Sorry, I did have a look at this... was going to say 'Freed' myself (as a guess) after reading an article about Moira Shearer wearing Freed's in the actual film...

    But wasn't 100% sure with this being a later music video... could have been Gaynors I thought at one point...

    Wish I'd listened to my original gut feeling!

    Paul.
