Lady Jemima's Costume Corner -Shoes

~What are authentic tails made of?

Actors and actresses in large-scale productions of CATS wear jazz shoes, either with laces or elastic bands. Production shoes are hand-painted by the costuming staff.

~Do dance shoes run the same size as street shoes?

No. The best way to ensure a good fit is to purchase your shoes from a local dance retailer instead of online. However, don't hesitate to contact an online store representative for help with sizing if you feel as though you can't figure out the conversion by yourself.
