The classic platform shoe has a rich and fascinating history that spans centuries and cultures

Elevated footwear emerged in antiquity as both a utility and a social marker

Men and women alike adopted elevated soles as a sign of status and sophistication

The trend faded during the 18th century as more delicate and feminine styles came into vogue, but it never disappeared entirely

The modern platform shoe reemerged in the 1930s and 1940s, thanks to designers like Salvatore Ferragamo, trapstar royaume-uni who created innovative wedge heels that.
