Philippines Imelda Shoes

Some of the more than 700 pairs of shoes of former Philippine First Lady Imelda Marcos are displayed Tuesday Sept. 25, 2012 at Marikina city, east of Manila, Philippines. At the National Museum in Manila, termites, storms and government neglect have damaged hundreds of pieces of the late strongman Ferdinand Marcos’ “barongs” as well as that of flamboyant Imelda Marcos’ legendary stash of shoes, expensive gowns, and other vanity possessions which were left to oblivion after she and dictator husband were driven to U.S. exile by a 1986 popular revolt.
