- Women's Oxfords, 1900-1922 - Low-cut shoes that lace up the front became fashionable in the United States in the late 1800s. These easy-to-put-on shoes were a comfortable alternative to boots and button-fastened shoes. The style has remained popular ever since -- especially with men, but women wear them too. This pair belonged to the mother of Ann Davis who lived in Louisville, Kentucky.

- Women's Slippers, circa 1840 - Ladies in early-nineteenth-century America wore delicate slippers with their stylish dresses. While fashionable, these types of shoes were notoriously unhealthy: they quickly became damp and soiled, provided no foot support, and were occasionally purchased a size or two too small so that the wearer's foot appeared dainty. These slippers were all about looking great -- not being comfortable.
