They are an indicator of class,\u00a0during the reign of\u00a0Louis XIV, red heels signified that the wearer was part of his court\u00a0much in the same way that Louboutins presently indicate that the wearer is part of an elite group.<\/p>\n<p>But they don&#8217;t just reveal which circles you run with, they are also reflect your mood. Nothing says &#8220;I&#8217;m comfortable&#8221; more than a pair of trainers\u00a0or &#8220;I&#8217;m practicle&#8221; more than a pair of Hush Puppies, and while they reflect how you&#8217;re feeling they also enhance your mood too.<\/p>\n<p>The cherry of top of any outfit is a pair of heels. Not only do they make legs look much thinner and miles longer but\u00a0they give\u00a0aboost of height and confidence, making\u00a0the wearer\u00a0feel powerful and complete, after all &#8216;behind every successful woman is a fabulous pair of shoes&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p>And if you think about all the successful women in world there&#8217;s\u00a0not one ugly pair of shoes between them.<\/p>\n<p>What was invented for practical purposes is now and identifiable statement and in many cases, a collectors item. Today they\u00a0evoke a whole range of emotions and inspire designers to push the boundaries of shoe design.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/Shoe.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-26862\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/Shoe-779x1024.jpg?resize=580%2C762\" alt=\"Shoe\" width=\"580\" height=\"762\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/Shoe.jpg?resize=779%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 779w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/Shoe.jpg?resize=228%2C300&amp;ssl=1 228w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/Shoe.jpg?resize=600%2C788&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/Shoe.jpg?resize=680%2C893&amp;ssl=1 680w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/Shoe.jpg?resize=300%2C394&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/Shoe.jpg?resize=770%2C1012&amp;ssl=1 770w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/Shoe.jpg?w=913&amp;ssl=1 913w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 580px) 100vw, 580px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Olivier Dupon has long\u00a0influenced the course of fashion and has published many books on the topic; including\u00a0his latest <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thamesandhudson.com\/Shoe_\/9780500517918\" target=\"_blank\"><em>Shoe: Contemporary Footwear by Inspiring Designers <\/em><\/a>from Thames and Hudson. Featuring\u00a0over 500 photographs of\u00a0avant-garde\u00a0shoes and designs, this book also includes profiles of leading\u00a0and up-and-coming shoe designers who\u00a0offer an insight into their process.<\/p>\n<p>Following in the footsteps of her grandfather, and one of Poland&#8217;s most sought after shoemaker, Aga Pruss is striving to change perceptions on made-to-measure shoes. &#8220;I try to think about what would be a good solution for individual feet, and then I try to transfer that into a nice shape and ultimately take into account all of my client&#8217;s expectations&#8221; she says. She wants to revolutionise the shoe industry and\u00a0 re-introduce her grandfather&#8217;s classic techniques that favoured quality, design, ingenuity and longevity.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/aga.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-26863\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/aga.jpg?resize=580%2C386\" alt=\"aga\" width=\"580\" height=\"386\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/aga.jpg?w=700&amp;ssl=1 700w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/aga.jpg?resize=300%2C199&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/aga.jpg?resize=600%2C399&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/aga.jpg?resize=680%2C452&amp;ssl=1 680w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 580px) 100vw, 580px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;My motto is that a beautiful shoe should be pure and classical in style, but above all well shaped. Shoes are like sculptures: every line, curve and angle matters. I strive to reconcile style with essential comfort, all the while adding a personal touch.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Similarly, Laurence Dacade echoes Pruss&#8217; love for quality shoe work, &#8220;&#8230;Diversity fuels me and, in a way, it&#8217;s what&#8217;s infused in my designs: dualities (feminine and masculine), a variety of supple\u00a0 and hard materials (my favourites are kangaroo, calfskin and satin), and above all the preservation of luxury craftsmanship through multiple techniques.&#8221; She believes that it is her mission to create the perfect shoe, and comfort provides the\u00a0foundation\u00a0upon which, the perfect shoe is built. Shoemaking is a precise process and often it comes down to a question of millimetres, and Laurence likes to challenge the skilled traditional artisans she works with to utilise alternative techniques in order to achieve her goals.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/27_LD_croquis_LD_pour_livre_0004.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\"
