Stiletto is an item that is worshiped both by men and women.
Women wearing stiletto are stylishly high, elegant and get an absolutely imperial
bearing. But those that learned to walk on stilettos effortlessly get extra
points for a seductive and full of charm gait, demonstrating the grace of body.
Unfortunately, not every woman can afford to get on the top of the fine
stiletto, due to different reasons.no woman without a pair of stilettoes!
For instance the women, that cannot boast
by too slim figures, usually, are simply unable to move on high hells. And many
doctors have the strong opinion, that it is not really safe for them. Meanwhile
for those that are forced for one or the other reason to reject stilettos,
there is a great and much more convenient substitutes offered by fashion
designers, and one of them is the close relative of stilettos – platform shoes.
They are not so hard to stand on and
require much less skills to wear, but still get you on the desired, dizzy height.
What’s more, the change of stiletto for the platform makes the stylish contrast,
adding to the image.
It’s hard to believe, but stiletto shoes were introduced not
much more than jut a half a century ago, by a shoemaking French designer Roger
Vivier that offered to the public a new look of a graceful woman of a thinnest
heel with height of 7-8
centimeters. It happened in 1954, and just a few years
later the shoe-magician lets out an extravagant model with a heel bent outside
so much, that it seems just about to crack. But it not only didn’t break, but
gave a start to the mass passion for stilettos, and since then women all over
the world step out briskly on the high exciting heels.
As the founder of the stiletto has actually begun the
fashion for fantasy heels that took origin in far 1959, there is hardly one
designer left that didn’t try to change something about it, transforming it in
the most unbelievable forms, playing with the heel as if with the plasticine
slice, presenting the strangest and freakish ideas.
But whatever the high fashion would present, and
irrelatively of the hottest trends there is always place for classical stiletto
shoes, on thin, straight and hardly widen to the shoe counter heels. You can
often find them in the fashion parades of Christian Dior, Christian Louboutin,
Carolina Herrera, Miu Miu, Versace, Chloé and, of course, Roger Vivier. Such stiletto
is a must-have companion of business women for whom the reserved sexuality, and
mixture of strict elegance and open self-confidence are obligatory by status.
Today’s trend is the stiletto created as if with the only
aim – to demonstrate the wildness of designer thought. Not many of the Kings
from the world of shoes are able to demonstrate the positive sense of humor.
However, appearance of stilettos in the form of nail or a corkscrew, which are
not traditionally support the back of the shoe, but as if trying to pierce the
centre of the heel, is the undoubted proof of this invaluable gift. While
medicine specialists trying to oppose the coryphaeus of fashion that make woman
climb year after year the higher heels, the later ones seems to decide to make
show out of it. The models with nails
instead of heels are especially popular with Marc Jacobs.
There is no need to talk separately on design of stiletto shoes
as the stiletto is not a some one-minute trend, but the uppermost in all
respects a style embodiment. You are really free to choose to your taste: gold from
Prada and Gucci, red varnished skin from Dior, textiles from Balenciaga, skin
of reptiles from Sergio Rossi, Lanvin and Brian Atwood, lace and suede from Giambattista
Valli.
Every woman that at least once had stiletto shoes in her life
faced the troubles that seem to be the curse of high and thin heels: it is the
inconvenience of walking by not ideally plain and firm surface. Stilettos,
picking paper liter and fallen leaves in parks and lawns, getting stuck in
grids and between bars, in the cracks and holes, which are plenty on every
street are very common but this their quality not least pleasant to the proprietress
of the shoes. Let alone the cases when we have to move through earthy spots and
stone-paved roads. An American company SoleMates, as a response to all
difficulties mensioned, designed and produced an accessory for stilettos, that
is simply gets of the heel, and it won’t sink, or get scratched any more. It
preserves the high heels, as well as high spirits of a woman adoring her
stiletto shoes.
