On the trail of the most beautiful shoes in the world,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]
Hit the buzzer. Get inspected through a tiny door hatch. Walk into a small room with three padded benches,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], twice that many staff and towers of plain, white shoe boxes.
A young woman in a sensible black dress will ask your size, in whatever language you prefer. And then she will smile,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], indulgently. She brings you plainest black stilettos in various sizes to try. She decides.
Each is open-toed, high-heeled with a strap. Purple and mustard suede. Black and white polka dots with purple trim. Purple leather with silver trim and a tangle of ankle straps. And,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], just in case, pale pink,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], black patent and cream leather scalloped across the foot and heel.
This morning,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the two other women in the room are Argentinian - porteños,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], as people from Buenos Aires call themselves. Their choices are dazzling,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], achingly gorgeous. They spin with tango steps before the communal full-length mirror.
It feels very much like a secret society. Women clustered in what could be a living room, trying on seductive,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], handmade, perfectly fitting shoes created to match the twin demands of a tango dancer and designer: Alicia Muñiz.
More boxes. Copper leather,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], red ruching, black chiffon straps, floral silk flutter by, just in case everything needn't be violet.
Or perhaps these? Black straps but a front of multicoloured silk squares. The right and left are different colours,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]. They feel like slippers,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
Muñiz started designing shoes for herself and her friends, habitués of Buenos Aires milongas,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], or tango dance parties, and created Comme Il Faut in 2003.
"So many shoes, so little time,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," a little needlepoint pillow propped in a corner says. The windowsill is lined with Art Deco shoe boxes, the end table with comfy-looking,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], well-travelled tango stilettos.
