Wedding accessories from the Nugée family Many wedding artefacts are preserved because marriage is so significant an event in the lives of the participants. Some pass from one generation to the next, becoming family heirlooms. The Nugée family kept this group of fragile objects because of their importance to the family history. The objects conjure up the romantic prettiness typical of many Victorian weddings.

  • Shoes with modest heels first came into fashion at the end of the 1850s, after nearly 50 years of low-heeled and flat-soled footwear. During the 1880s, the heel shape became more waisted, echoing the 18th century 'louis' heel. These white silk satin shoes have a moderate 5 cm heel with a slight waist. In the 19th century, brides often remade their expensive silk dresses into evening or dinner dresses by altering the neckline and sleeves, or chose to get married in a coloured silk dress that could be worn for 'best' afterwards. Even aristocratic brides often had their wedding dresses remodelled to wear for their first presentation at Court as a married woman. Shoes and accessories could easily be tucked away safely as souvenirs, which may explain why this pair has survived in such good condition. (en)
