The History Of Women'S Shoes Is Secret, The Most Valuable Flat Shoes.

It did not appear in sixteenth Century.

If high heels represent women's respect for society and men, flat shoes are more like women's attitudes towards their own lives. They belong to those really powerful women who are more willing to release their nature and live for themselves.

After all, compared with the high-heeled shoes that only appeared in sixteenth Century, the history of flat shoes is much longer. It was born in the initial stage of human invention of shoes, and wearing plain shoes is just as natural as human upright body starts to walk.

Flat shoes are the only option before 1533.

From twelve to thirteenth Century BC, clay shoes in Azerbaijan were probably the earliest shoes we know. No doubt, they are a pair of plain shoes.

In the early days, people who started walking on bare feet first invented flat shoes, which is almost an inevitable result. In addition to protecting damaged feet, flat shoes have maintained the mechanical state of barefoot to a large extent. This is undoubtedly the most natural and natural state of human beings.

In fact, until sixteenth Century, flat shoes were the only choice for men and women.

Egyptian aristocratic women are keen on papyrus woven sandals and adorned with shiny jewellery.

Another important flat shoe branch comes from ancient Greece. Rome sandals made of tough leather are essential for all European hikers at that time.

In Europe before sixteenth Century, the shoes of civilians were ordered not to exceed 6 inches (15.24 centimeters). The length of the knight's shoes was 18 inches (45.72 centimeters). The barons above the nobles could wear the 24 inch (60.96 centimeter) long boots that were unrealistic and ridiculous. Think about the way they ran on the bus in these shoes.

The return of flat shoes in the 18-19 century

The rise of flat shoes is due to a fashion icon, our "IT Girl", the wife of Queen Louis Jula of France, the famous Queen Marie (Marie-Antoinette).

Back in 1789 when the French Revolution broke out, high-heeled shoes were regarded as a symbol of power and a vulgar display.

Our proud queen Marie pushed the public's hatred for high-heeled shoes to the peak of drama. In 1793, Marie-Antoinette was sent to the scaffold by her revolutionaries in her dazzling high-heeled shoes. This "fashion moment" made high-heeled shoes a synonym for decadent feudalism, which directly led to the unprecedented disgrace of high-heeled shoes. The flat shoes came back again and took the lead in the next 100 years.

By the year nineteenth Century, the popularity of flat shoes had become more successful, because the industrial revolution required women to invest in a wide range of social work besides men. Sandals, sandals and boots became the best choice for workers.

The next popularity of high-heeled shoes is in the late nineteenth Century, but this time it became a female exclusive. Because of its comfort and practicality, men chose the camp of flat shoes on the ground.

Although the flat shoe has been developed in the history of mankind for more than a century, it was not until 1830 that the first pair of shoes that distinguished the right and left feet were manufactured in Philadelphia.

When the industrial revolution completely changed the production and life of human beings, the popularity of flat shoes was inevitable. It is indeed the most ergonomic footwear. Now, in the United States, people spend at least 2 billion dollars a year to improve the foot problems caused by high-heeled shoes.

After twentieth Century, flat shoes became elegant terms.

By twentieth Century, society had become more diversified. Women did not have to choose one of them as the sole standard of the whole era, but both of them could be taken into consideration. However, it must be admitted that high heeled shoes, which are more likely to embody unique shapes and design concepts, are more dazzling on the stage of fashion.

Until 1939, the Hollywood classic "Wizard of Oz" was born, showing people that flat shoes can also have the charm of fashion.

Judy Garland's heroine, the heroine Dorothy, is the ultimate dream of every young girl's dream of the simple, flashing, and butterfly knot of "Ruby shoes", and it is like the prototype of a classic Ballerina shoe in the future.

In 1949, Capezio, an American company that made dance suits, made the first pair of ballerina, that is, a lady's shoe with a ribbon at the ankle. Soon, Audrey Hepburn wore it in the movie "sweet sister", and then Audrey and other important female stars of the same age, the first pair of famous shoes in the fashion world was born.

Of course, after most of the time (especially in twenty-first Century), flat shoes are still not as attractive as high-heeled shoes, but looking back on fashion history, there are always many fashion icons that show elegant shoes.

As we mentioned in the foreword, flat shoes are more like women's attitude towards their life, a strong and firm self-identity.

So even though flat shoes rarely appear on the T stage, it is still a fashion necessity for every girl.

A pair of classic flat shoes (ballet shoes or round head, shallow jelly shoes) are comfortable enough for you to wear in the bedroom at any time, convenient for walking and running. When you go to town, they are quite chic, and it often makes you feel that you are more pleased with yourself than to please men, which is why we still love flat shoes in this era.

In the wizard of Oz, Dorothy's enchanting Ruby shoe was originally silver in the novel, and later changed because the director thought that red appeared to be more eye-catching in the early film projection. Thank God, this is definitely a genius's decision.
