Did Prince design them? eek

Those shoes are part of the reason he's not here with us I think. Now had he been running around and jumping off of risers with rubber soles or something to that effect I assume that would have delayed part of his hip pain.

Ahhh i love this look yes

Does anyone know his shoe size hmmm
I asked Prince what he was planning to do. He told me , I'm going to look for the ladder. I asked him what that meant. All he said was, sometimes it snows in April. - book D.M.S.R.

Does anywhere list Prince's shirt, pants, jacket and shoe size? Thank you so much for sharing this!




I may be wrong but I thought he wore a size 7 shoe eek


I heard his shoe size was 5 1/2.
if his size was 5.5, then I could wear his shoes ! Only I can't afford them
sad

That makes me sad. I had a dream a couple weeks ago that I saw Prince walking past me. It was around the Controversy era. I screamed Prince, don't take the Fentanyl! No wait, don't jump don't dance ! 😥😭

Yeah, I was watching a video from the Triple Threat tour yesterday and he jumped off two massive speaker stacks one after the other and it just made wince... God, what we'd give to go back now and just stop him jumping around so much... but he'd never have listened, I think he loved jumping around.... sad

I once read somewhere that he had a huge influence on his designer. I'm not saying he designed it himself but he always knew what he wanted with his clothes and he needed someone to put his ideas onto paper and then fabric.

Interesting how he stayed with one shoe style for the most part. I guess you go with what works.

I love the suits and getting crazier about the hats.

OMG The suits and hats are my fav!!! I've probably watched the youtube video of while my guitar gently weeps a thousand times because he looks so freaking smokin hot in that suit and red hat not to mention his preformance was out of this world!!

Love his shoes, but whenever I see them, I notice that the arch part looks wide. Not freakishly wide, but like the part of his feet right above his toes was wide.

Then when you see a glimpse of his feet in pictures, that part looks wide and compact. His shoes all have the toe area longer and thinner and coming to a point to give his feet a slimmer appearance, but I finally figured out that Baby Boy had thick short feet.

Funnily enough, they were slimmer and not as thick and stubby in the bathtub scene in UTCM.

But I guess over the years they got wider cuz of the "dancer's feet" thing. Dancers feet tend to deform over time. I'll bet that hurts, too.

Just something interesting that I noticed.

My feet are 7.5 wide ladies, if Prince wore 5.5 wide, we had the same size feet . 😆 We have the same color eyes and I'm 5.2 and I half inches tall. Same height. I know no one cares, I'm just like it

Men tend to have wider and thicker feet than women even if they're petite like Prince. I've never seen a man with delicate looking feet yet. There must be some out there. Maybe in the bathtub scene they photoshoped his feet ;lol: because he wanted them delicate looking hoofs.

Prince was just fly as hell!!! He went thru a couple of looks I didn't particularly care for like that period above.

When he thankfully changed that whole style and moved on to the next..... The grown ass sexy man in the tailored suits and sharp hats...OMG. HOTNESS PERSONIFIED!

This is true. If PRINCE was 80 years old in a bath robe and bunny slippers I would still think he's hot.

Years ago in a P forum on AOL, a guy who I was friendly with claimed to have been involved in some renovations at PP when P&M were married and he told me that P wore bunny slippers around PP.

I never knew if he was serious about that but I thought it was funny.

We lost touch after P's baby died and I had life crap to deal with.

This photo is horrible. Don't know if it's because he is standing beside someone much taller,or if it's because his hands are in his pockets or just the angle the photo was taken from but Prince although small was well proportioned and this make him look like he had dwarfism.

was a link posted on twitter 2 days ago, interviewing the person who has made his shoes for over 20 years, who owns an L.A. shop custom shoe making for the stars.

prince's shoes were $2,300 a pair.

This is who has been doing the most shoes for Prince in recent years.

This appears to be his Prince is Dead phase. He put on a whitish base to look dead. So, when he came back as the 0-+-> he no longer wore that makeup.

Worst period ever. 2nd would be the corn row era. Even his hair stylist Kim Berry hated that look. lol

Does anyone know if his heels were platform shoes? It's hard for me to tell. I can't imagine how sore his feet would be though if they weren't.

They probably were reinforced in several points.

No one can do those jumps and splits with a regular pair of heels.
They would have break at the first move.

I'd like to believe he had custom made shoes because of his performances requirements,

not because of deformed feet.

Is there a "Prince's coolest outfit thread"? I know there's a general picture thread but I think it'd be neat to have one solely on the clothes and the outfits.

For instance, I LOVE this god damned shirt:
