Brown high heel shoes, worn by Miss Seafair 2014

These brown high heel shoes were worn by Jasmine Goodwin, Miss Seafair 2014. Goodwin was the 65th Miss Seafair and the second Black woman to secure the title. Her win came exactly 40 years after Galen Motin’s win in 1974, the first Black Miss Seafair. The Miss Seafair organization selected dresses for each participant for the coronation night, but contestants had to provide their own shoes. Goodwin wore these because they were the only ones she had that were the right height for the length of the dress. She wore them with the dress on the night of the coronation and on the day of the Torchlight parade. The scuffed heels are from standing around on the grass at the Seattle Center, waiting for the parade to start.
