Marlene Dietrich-Leather, Boots, Spurs, Trampling?


The still at the top was why I downloaded Dishonored (1931). I had known about the short-skirt calf-high boot outfit(but hadn't really noticed the spurs. Sadly we never get any good looks at the leather suit and nothing really interesting happens with the cape-costume. What surprised the hell out of me was the Russian boots she wore while pretending to be a drunken serving girl.
I know I've said this before, but it surprises me every time-these boots from 1931 are 100% indistinguishable from the boots I saw every day in the late 70's. The toe, heel, shaft and even the tooled decorations are EXACTLY like  the boots of my adolescence.

From Dishonored (1931) Lots of promise that never quite lives up to its potential. Spurs on calf-high boots, trampling (kinda) in knee high Russian boots and a full leather suit obscured by shadows.
