Seasonal fashion

Women’s shoes come in varying shapes and styles. For a woman who loves buying shoes it must seem like wonderland but some women may find buying shoes a very daunting experience. Women’s shoes are bought for work, play and for attracting the opposite sex. In this country we like to buy shoes. Statistics say we buy, on average, five pairs of shoes per person per year. Women’s shoes are designed for every eventuality, for every occasion and to fulfil a multitude of desires. There are women’s shoes to make feet look smaller; there are shoes to make feet look bigger; to look taller and there are women’s shoes with no heel at all to make you as small as possible.

Even as far back as 4000 BC shoes have been made and worn as a fashion statement. It wasn’t until the 15th century that shoes were made in two parts, the upper part made from soft leather and the lower (sole) part again made from leather but the stiff as a bone variety. And it hasn’t always been women’s shoes that have lead the way in fashion, many a male monarch has set the trend of shoe fashion, Henry the 2nd for example fashioned the narrow pointed toe shoe (to hide his deformed toes). Queen Mary 1st made popular high heels as they made her look taller, to her subjects.

Women’s shoes that are stiletto heeled have a high thin heel not more than 5 cm at the base, the heel is named after the stiletto dagger, The stiletto heel can be found on women’s shoes and boots, there is evidence that the stiletto shoe was around in the 18th century. The premise of the stiletto is more of a sexual statement rather than a height issue with women.
