As the incomparable Marilyn Monroe said: “Give a woman a pair of good pumps, and she will conquer the world!”
High-heeled pumps have always been a symbol of femininity and elegance, and it all began in 1533, when fourteen-year-old Catherine de Medici put on such a pair of pumps for her marriage to Heinrich de Valois. Then the "impressive" five-centimeter heel made such a splash among secular ladies that for several years it has become an integral part of pumps. Around the same time, but already in England, the absurd and imperious ruler Mary Tudor, who did not want to be on the same level with her subjects, demanded that heels be made for her. After a while, the royal favorite Madame Pompadour invents a thin hairpin, and after another 200 years, the eminent French designer inserts a metal rod into it. It is these pumps, studded with rubies, that he makes for the coronation of Elizabeth II. But the twentieth century makes its own adjustments and in 1956 the French company Repetto, which deals with pumps for ballerinas, at the request of Brigitte Bardot, produces its first ballet flats. And after the premiere of the film "And God Created a Woman", they are gaining unprecedented success, because every girl once dreamed of being a ballerina and believed in a fairy tale. Remember Cinderella who lost her glass slipper? After all, it was thanks to her that a simple girl could become a princess.
