The main thing in the image of a girl or woman is chic shoes. It is she who emphasizes her femininity and makes the queen, changing her gait. And nothing cures despondency so quickly as a new pair of original, extravagant shoes. Therefore, it is not surprising that not only fashionistas are ready to give their salaries to black pumps. Women intuitively understand that shoes are a mood. Even the best wardrobe outfit loses its appearance if the shoe is not a continuation of it, does not match the style.
A bit of history
The most elegant style of women's shoes has its own secret. Shoes that every woman has in her wardrobe were born thanks to men. It was they, fashionable gentlemen of the Middle Ages, who began to wear ballroom shoes, on which there were no fasteners. Convenience was “slipping” of feet into the shoes, hence the name of the style - the boat.
Heels also appeared in men's fashion before. They were the privilege of riders. To keep the foot in a stirrup, a pin was nailed to the heel of the boot. From the boots, the heel migrated to civilian shoes, giving growth to its owner. History knows the fact of the issuance of a decree by Louis XIV, which said: subjects can be increased in heel only with increasing rank. Who would have thought that black pumps would have such an interesting story.
First stilettos
At the end of the XIX century, innovators shoe makers performed a female version of boats with a small heel made of wood. But in practice, the heel of such a material quickly fails and is replaced by a metal pin.
The twentieth century can be literally called the era of the perfection of women's shoes. The first black stiletto pumps appeared in the 50s. Two designers of women's shoes fulfill their unique designs. Roger Vivienne creates shoes with an 8-centimeter heel for the coronation of Queen Elizabeth. And Salvatore Ferragamo makes shoes for fashionistas on a 10-centimeter stiletto.
Christian Dior decided to improve the female image on the catwalk, paying special attention to shoes. He used shoes on a comfortable 5-centimeter hairpin in his fashion shows.
In the 50s, the cult actress Marilyn Monroe was a fan of high heels. She expressed the idea that a woman in good shoes can conquer the world. It was she, Marilyn Monroe, defiling in high-heeled boats in the movie "Only Girls in Jazz", proved it. Many men believe that stilettos make a woman sexy, giving her a certain charm, which literally makes them “lose their heads”.
Fashion of the late twentieth century
In the early 60s, Jacqueline Kennedy returned to the fashion pedestal black pumps with medium heels. She bought them a few pairs every month for formal and evening toilets. At the same time, the first models of inexpensive heeled boats appeared in Soviet stores, and many women became happy owners of this scarce product. And 70s graduates in their pumps danced their first waltzes.
No matter how metamorphosis has occurred with pumps since their inception, this model has gone down in history. It is clear that fashion does not stand still, designers bring something new, keeping pace with the times, but pumps, black, with heels, remain in demand today. With their presence, they emphasize the beauty of any style of clothing, and therefore are popular with women.
Black boat styles
High-heeled shoes, of course, transform women's legs, but walking in such shoes during the day is tiring. Designers create comfortable black platform shoes that find their fans. The model is decorated with an interesting detail - a thin leather strap covering the leg above the ankle. Sometimes in these shoes the strap is replaced with a satin ribbon, which also effectively emphasizes the beauty of the woman’s legs.
Designers have created and are currently creating models of different colors and from different materials, but black has always been and remains in demand. Shoes are usually sewn from genuine matte leather or its artificial counterpart. Rarely for the manufacture of shoes are used textiles and black satin. Usually these shoes are sewn to a specific order at home models.
Summer pumps look great with embossed and perforated shoes. Black lacquers are a stylish accessory for the evening toilet, which simply must be in the wardrobe of fashionistas.
Well-known designer of the red sole
No matter what ideas the designers bring to life every season, beating the classic version of black boats in a new way. Chic shoes for real ladies from Christian Louboutin have their own difference - a well-recognized red sole. It is difficult to find shoes similar to this spectacular shoe. Black suede boats fully confirm the statement of the designer himself that his shoes are an extension of the fashionista’s legs, somehow magically stretching her silhouette. The velvety surface of suede in deep black color looks especially attractive.
How did it occur to Louboutin to decorate the boats with a red sole? There is a legend that one day he saw his toenails painted with red varnish on his toes. They looked so impressive that Louboutin, without hesitation for a long time, painted the sole of one of the boat samples in red. What came of it? The model is recognized, in demand and timeless.
Who wears pumps

Open-heeled boats are ideal for dresses, the basis of the style of which is “new bow”, a business summer suit in which classic straight skirts or trousers. However, pumps with an open heel are only suitable for those women who care about their heels, knowing that they are always in sight. Matte leather mid-heel shoes look great with formal business suits in the office. The color of a business suit does not have to be black. Black boats harmoniously look with gray and beige tones.
There is a casual look in black boats. They look great with indigo jeans and shortened (7/8) trousers, dresses of any silhouette, with straight skirts and bell skirts and a year.
Designers recommend paying attention
Pumps should never be worn with sportswear of any, even the most famous, brand. This is stupid and tasteless. A long skirt of light color and black boats are a visual shortening of the legs. Probably none of the women will want to get such an effect. The effect of shortening the legs can get the owner of shoes with a strap that pulls the ankle. It doesn’t threaten slender ladies,
Shoes should always be comfortable and comfortable. But her main task is to demonstrate beautiful legs.
