Dataset for the Virtual Shoe Salon Project

This is the dataset for a research project called the Virtual Shoe Salon. The Virtual Shoe Salon is a project that focuses on young people, aged 18-24 years, and their sense of self as it is communicated and experienced through their footwear choices. The participants were asked to take photographs of their shoes and write a short narrative response to what the shoes mean to them and how the shoes make them feel as an individual. This dataset includes photographs, along with each individual's written narratives and demographic information.
