Heel (shoe): Difference between revisions

Revision as of 23:54, 11 June 2022

Angle heel – "the surface of the base of the heel is straight until reaching the waistline, and it looks like the shape of the Korean letter ¬"
Annabelle – 7-cm platform heel
Bar style – had jewelry or other decorative aspects to go along with flapper culture.
Continental heel – 7.5 mm, with the upper part of the chest of the heel spreading towards the center of the shoe.
Cromwell shoe – based on Oliver Cromwell with heel up to 170 mm (6.5 in).
Cuban heel – similar to the continental heel, but not curved, generally medium height
New Look in 1947 – a slim, elegant heel, newly created by putting steel in the heel. This enabled the heel to be skinny without snapping.
Pantaloon heel – "similar to pantaloon pants: the top lift part of the heel is spread out as it extends to the bottom part of the heel, and the waistline of the heel curves inward naturally."
Pinet heel – straight and skinny
Setback heel – similar to the continental heel, but the surface of the back of the heel is straight, forming a right angle.
Stacked heel – usually layers of leather 5 mm thick stacked together and trimmed to match the shape of the heel. These are commonly known as block heels.
Stiletto – tall, skinny heel; first mentioned in a newspaper in September 1953.
Wedges – popularized by Salvatore Ferragamo, who introduced this in the Italian market in the late 1930s.
