Mary Janes are often dismissed as the 'little girls' of footwear, often designed with no thought for sophistication or sex appeal.
Not so Bottega Veneta's satin and lizard-trim Mary Janes which would kick you where it hurt if you ever had the nerve to call them childish! Tough, smart and with a hint of twenties cheekiness, these unusual mushroom-coloured shoes are certainly feminine but they also mean business.
