& I've Worn them Ever Since...
In the history of footwear, none has gestured towards leisure, sexuality and sophistication as the high-heel. The aura surrounding a pair of well designed high-heel shoes is almost erotic as its dangerously agent provocateur-like attraction.
During the reign of King Louis XIV, the heel was a symbol of nobility and class but in the aftermath of the French Revolution, Napoleon had them banned though that did not stop one Maria Antoinette heading to the scaffold in a 2-inch heels for her execution.
Victorian art and literature in the 1860s rejuvenated the heel’s popularity as a fashion statement with the instep arch seen as symbolic of a curve of a woman and heels made feet seem smaller and daintier so it was no surprise to find women in 5 to 6-inch heels in the rekindled love affair. 
These days, the love for high-heel reignites with each new design, promising an alluring sense of height, power and authority. Most important of all, women in the 21st century are wearing heels for themselves and not just for the admiring gentlemen.
Heels have indeed come a long way since Catherine de Medeci wore them to dazzle the French nation and a certain Duke of Orleans.
With an array of designs, it can be quite daunting as it is exhilarating when making one’s choice. A practical as well as aesthetic consideration has to be given and well-thought to fit one’s need and desire.
