May I ask of you the names of different type of shoes that geisha wear? I'd like to ask my Father to make me some but I need to give him reference pictures... actually if you have any pictures I'd be grateful. Any kind would be nice, but I love this kind the best http://26.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lji9a8xUJZ1qh09kzo1_500.jpgThank you :D
omg, i'm jealous now :D i want geisha shoes too! :D
So, the kind on the picture is called Okobo. these shoes can be pretty high (especially for misedashi)

Another kind is Zori. they're rather flat sandals made of wood and rice straw. but they still look elegant, though.

3rd kind: Geta. usually worn by geikos. when you walk in geta, it sounds funny, like click-clock, click-clock :D also, ordinary people wear geta.

And the last one, I think, is komachi geta.
