year ago

If art is the process where someone puts their creativity and imagination in an actual form, then shoes are definitely one form of that. Shoes come in different shapes, forms and colors and oftentimes they are not only meath to be useful, but also to catch people’s attention. In the same way as sculpture and painting, they can also invoke feelings and emotions.

Shoes can be the center of attention and Now I’ve Seen Everything gathered 12 occasions where celebrities understood that footwear isn’t just small accessories.

The singer sported Sophia Webster’s butterfly heels at the iHeartRadio Music Awards, which perfectly complemented her jumpsuit. Fans immediately began to throw around theories as to why Swift chose such an unusual pair of shoes. Some people decided that the singer wanted to show the evolution of her work this way — she left her cocoon and became a butterfly.

Elle Fanning

In 2021, Loewe became one of the main hits during Fashion Week thanks to their shoes with heels that looked like strange objects — a nail polish bottle, a rose, a cake candle, and a broken egg. The shoes were often discussed online, but they weren’t seen in real life until Elle Fanning decided to wear a pair. She described them as “an egg-cellent outfit for the morning.”

Katy Perry

The famous singer is known for her love of extravagant items. In 2012, she came to Paris Fashion Week wearing Prada flame sandals.

Margot is not afraid to wear extravagant shoes. For example, she was once noticed sporting shoes that featured all fashion trends of that season: they were mules inspired by western boots with square toes and metallic details.

Angelina Jolie

In 2014, during the premiere of Maleficent, Angelina Jolie had a collaboration with Christian Louboutin. Together, they created shoes with a curve at the heel. The shoes were inspired by the image of the main character.

Jolie wore them during the entire promo tour for the film, so a lot of people discussed them. But it wasn’t just for the purpose of making sales: the money earned from these shoes was given to charity.

Sarah Jessica Parker

In 2011, Sarah Jessica Parker made an appearance to promote her movie, Don’t Know How She Does It. The actress came out to her fans wearing Christian Louboutin’s lion paw pumps.

Everyone was looking at Sandra Bullock’s legs in 2015 when she arrived at the premiere of Minions wearing shoes with pictures of the animated characters on them. On the tips, there were funny eyes in protective glasses, exactly like the characters, and there were eyelashes above the heels. The replicas of the shoes with Bullock’s autograph were later presented at the Charity Buzz auction.

Zoe Saldaña

Do you own any daring pair of shoes and if you do, what are they? Do you think that people should be more courageous when choosing their shoes?
