Late 1980s • Miss Capezio • Butterfly Inlay • Women’s 6.5 M
This late-1980s Miss Capezio pair uses a vivid cherry-red leather base to make its butterfly design impossible to miss. Large black butterflies span both the front and back of the shafts, accented with golden yellow, turquoise and small white details that give the wings definition against the red background. The motif is repeated on all sides rather than treated as a single front-facing decoration, while subtle vamp stitching keeps the lower half comparatively quiet. A pointed Western toe and low underslung heel complete the fashion-forward silhouette of the period.
Why We Love Them
The color combination is what gives these their energy: cherry red, black, yellow and turquoise is bold without becoming chaotic. Repeating the butterfly across the shaft also makes the boots read as a complete design rather than a pair with one decorative panel.
