Melbourne 2006
Commonwealth Games
Wow !!! What a buzz !!!
Our gorgeous "Frankie" shoes were worn by one
of the main performance troupes in the
Official Closing Ceremony of the
"Melbourne 2006 Commonwealth Games"...
We hope that you saw those cool looking guys playing
the bongo drums backing John Farnham...
They were wearing Fedora Hats, Zoot Suits & Vests...
They were also the guys wearing our "Frankie" shoes...
We're so very proud & pleased that from all the two-tone
shoes available anywhere in the world - the Commonwealth
Games Corporation chose to use our gorgeous shoes...
|
|
"Wow - my gorgeous shoes are
so damn HOT, they've set
the dance studio on fire"
|
Possibly you're thinking
“Yes, all this gorgeous stuff looks OK - but I wonder what their
shoes, clothes & other stuff are really like ???”
If so, then we suggest you look at what many of our customers
are saying about our gorgeous service & their
gorgeous gear - here's one example:
"I would like to thank you both so very much for everything you have done in providing the shoes for both Ashleigh & myself. Not only did you not know us, but in sending them up to us with the trust in us that you did. I cannot thank you enough for this. The look on Ashleigh's face when she realized what they were was just sheer pleasure, knowing how much she wanted them. I have no hesitation in recommending both yourself & product to anyone who has asked where I got them from as has been the case so far, so I hope they get in contact with you. Once again many thanks for everything you have done. I hope you have a Merry Christmas & New Year, and maybe I will see you at Wintersun in June."

Our gorgeous customers receive top quality shoes, clothes
memorabilia & other items at affordable prices…
There's a world of difference between “cost” & “value” & it's been
said “quality is remembered” long after “price is forgotten”...
At gorgeous, our prices are not “cheap”, but they're also not
“expensive” - however, they're certainly value for money...
What we do offer is a great combination of top quality, guaranteed
products at prices that “don't cost the earth”...
And it's no accident that over 80% of our business is from
previous customers, referrals & recommendations…
We can also send you a Price List in your own currency...
Just email us at:

The new gorgeous market
Our fastest growing markets are Ceroc, Latin & Ballroom dancers...
They've discovered that the "resin" soles which are on many of the
'gorgeous' shoes range, are just as good or even better to dance
in, than the "suede" soles they're accustomed to wearing...
Many dance teachers & students now choose to only wear resin soles,
because they offer the perfect combination of "slip & grip"...
The other benefit is they can wear their resin-sole shoes on the dance
floor, on the street, to work, shopping - anywhere that they like...
No more hassles of "carrying their shoes in a bag", & then changing
shoes when they get to a dance, social event or their classes...
This also means they can wear their shoes to a dinner dance, wedding,
party, or anywhere else where they know that they're able to dance,
but without having to carry their dance shoes separately...
So it's not at all surprising that so many Latin & Ballroom dancers
are now choosing to also wear our 'gorgeous' dance shoes...
|

The other new gorgeous market
Our smallest, but proportionately fastest growing group of customers have
absolutely nothing to do with swing, rock 'n' roll, rockabilly or dancin'...
They're typically “mid-teens” to “early thirties”, looking for shoes 'n' clothes with
a “point of difference” - especially as increasing numbers in these age groups
are into “all things retro” - & they reckon our gear is “pretty cool”...
(so do we of course, but we're a bit on the “biased” side)
Some have see mum & dad wearing their gorgeous gear & just can't believe
that their parents are into such cool stuff - & it all flows on from there...
Or - it's been “word of mouth”, “recommendations” or “referrals”...
Or - they've discovered the gorgeous website or seen our flyers...
So don't be at all surprised who you'll now see wearing some of our
fabulous range of gorgeous shoes 'n' clothes `n' other stuff...
|

The gorgeous range of Rock 'n' Roll, Swing, Rockabilly, Jive, Ceroc, Leroc, Boogie Woogie, Bodgie and Widgie
& Hotrod dance and street shoes...
STYLES & COLOURS
Over 100 styles to choose from - plus, your own choice of shoe colours,
you have access to the most comprehensive selection of quality
two-tone dance & street shoes anywhere in the world...
And, if your colours preferences are not shown or displayed here,
then please ask us - we may still possibly be able to help you...
AVAILABILITY
If you multiply 100 plus styles by the possible colour combinations,
it equates to well in excess of 25,000 individual possibilities...
And if you then multiply these possibilities by the different sizes
we have available - then we're talking "telephone numbers"...
'gorgeous' can't logistically (or financially) afford to carry such
a huge stock holding, although we invariably carry a good
inventory of the "most-ordered" styles & colours...
DELIVERY
It can sometimes take up to 4 - 6 weeks for your shoes to be made
in non-stock styles/colours - although usually sooner than that...
that's the bad news out of the way...
The good news is the shoes are fabulous in both style & quality
& you'll soon discover that they're "worth the wait"...
WEARABILITY
All the 'gorgeous' shoes are also suitable for outdoors wear...
If you want to carry them in a little bag to dances, then that's
quite OK - but you don't have to, if you don't want to...
SHOE SIZES
All sizes for the 'gorgeous' shoes range are shown in BLACK...
Refer to the "shoes conversion chart" below for your local sizes...
Please Note: because "bleyer", "alexi" & "rockabillity" are different
manufacturers, not all colours are available from all three suppliers
|

SHOE SIZES
Although every effort has been made to ensure accuracy, the following
conversion charts can only be used as a general guide...
Shoes are just like clothes in that differing manufacturers, styles, designs,
etc., can sometimes result in a variance in fittings...
Additionally, interpretations in the various so-called 'standard' sizes for
each Country means that 100% accuracy is effectively unattainable...
We suggest a half-size 'larger' is usually your best option if unsure - & if there
is any 'slack', this can usually be corrected with a quality inner sole...
Finally - we are very well experienced in gauging correct sizes from the
information that we will ask you to send…
In almost 7 years of gorgeous being in business, we've only got it wrong twice,
naturally we exchanged the shoes both times for the correct fittings…
(Although with "Murphy's Law" being alive & well, we're probably overdue for it to happen again)

PLEASE NOTE: Size Conversion charts can only be used as a general guide.
Shoes are similar to clothes in that differing manufacturing, styles, designs, interpretations,
can often result in variations in so-called 'standard' sizes in each country or zone.
A half-size larger is usually the best option, then if there is any 'slack', this can
usually be corrected with a quality inner sole such as the “Bleyer” insole.
gorgeous Gift Vouchers
Almost everbody has Gift Vouchers - but they can be so "boring"
Yes, the "thought" is there, & you'd like to give the receiver
some "choice" - however, they can often seem like:
" I couldn't think of anything else to give you, so this will do"
Which of course, defeats the whole purpose of your gift
Wouldn't it be great if you could still give someone "choice",
without losing that all important "personal touch"
Well - now you can
gorgeous offers Gift Vouchers which can be designed to your
requirements - & which can also be "personalized" with
photos of the recipient - & that's a worldwide first
Here's an example of what we mean:
gorgeous Gift Vouchers are a "gorgeous innovation", & they're
available in ANY currency & can be used from ANY Country
They can obviously be emailed to ANYWHERE in the world
|
gorgeous accepts:
email us for details
|
Are you searching for gorgeous
gear prices on our site, but
you can't find any ???
gorgeous carries around 150 shoe styles with a “squillion”
colour combinations - and more than 350 other lines
including: guys 'n' gals clothes, belts, bracers,
towels, sox, ties, jackets, figurines, etc...
Our gorgeous shoes 'n' clothes are now being worn in
60 Countries, & we deal in 15 major currencies - so it's
virtually impossible to list all the individual prices in
all the currencies in a "non-confusing" manner...
Email us advising which Country or Australian State you're
from & we'll email you a Price List in your own currency...

FREE INTERNATIONAL TELEPHONE CALLS
You can talk to us at gorgeous from your computer absolutely FREE
It's just like talking over the telephone - but you don't have to pay
those horrendously expensive international phone call rates
You'll need to install a clever little freeware program called "Skype"
Once you've installed "Skype", search for us under "gorgeous-gear"
in Australia - & you can then speak to us completely FREE
You can even call people who don't have "Skype", or have a computer
Yes, it does cost you a little, but we really do mean "a little" - & it's
also considerably less than those International Phone Cards
eg: Check out the costs of a 30 minute call between Australia & the
following Countries - & the costs are the same in either direction:
USA:
|
US 62 cents
|
 |

|

from all this, we're absolutley rapt with "Skype"
"Skype" is a fabulous utility & so easy to use - it's saving us a "bundle"
