Mary Jane Oxford Heels

Our Mary Jane Oxford heels cross two shoe families: the lace-up front of an Oxford and the open, strapped feel of a Mary Jane, set on a curved low heel in the Louis style. A ribbon ties over the instep, petal-shaped cut-outs open the sides, and the pointed toe sits on a sole edge in a contrasting tone that looks like a stitched welt. The silhouette is vintage-inspired, leaning toward the 1910s and 1920s.

Where Oxford-Style Heels Fit in a 1920s Wardrobe

A low heel and a laced front make these the pair for long days on your feet: a vintage fair, a daytime wedding, an Edwardian picnic or a swing dance class where stilettos would be a liability. They look right with drop-waist day dresses, pleated skirts and wide trousers, and the ribbon can be tied in a neat bow or a flat knot. Choose from off-white, black, navy, brown and burgundy.

Sizing the Lace-Up Heels

Sizes run from EU 35 for an 8.85 in (22.5 cm) foot to EU 43 for a 10.4 in (26.5 cm) foot, in half-centimeter steps. Choose by foot length; the lacing then lets you tighten or loosen across the instep. More vintage-inspired pairs are in our mary jane heels.

Mary Jane Oxford Heels FAQ

Is the white a pure white?

It is an off-white with a creamy tone, softer than optic white and easier to match with ivory lace and bridal fabrics.

Can I replace the ribbon?

Yes, any ribbon of a similar width will thread through. A contrasting velvet ribbon makes the pair your own.

Do these shoes suit an Edwardian costume?

They do. The curved heel and lace-up front echo shoes from around the First World War, so they work for 1910s events too.
