Decade of Shoe Trends – 2007
Posted on December 29th, 2009 by r5bales under General, Shoe History Corner2007 shoe designs can be described with one word: platforms.
Alexander McQueen offered covered platforms with pencil thin stiletto heels.
Ralph Lauren offered the LBD of shoes. The platforms make the heel about 2.5 inches. This is a workhorse shoe. I have this pair and wear them often.
Prada showed us the new platform. I am not wild about this platform shape, but give me a couple of years and I might grow to like it. By then the shape will have moved onto something else.

John Galliano seems to be three steps ahead of everyone. I am wondering if this is the shoe of 2014, with super chunky heels and platforms. The model didn’t shave her legs. She must be related to me.
If it wasn’t platformed, it was embellished. Alexander McQueen’s purple feather with clear heels and Prada with multi colored flats. Not wild about either.
Valentino Couture offered a pair of the prettiest shoes I have seen in a very long time.

Love them. Love the V in the stockings.

Love all the prada style. 2007 style but still looks good at 2009 or even 2010.
