Summer without open shoes is simply unthinkable. And not so long ago, the once extremely popular platform shoes, including sandals, returned to the fashionable Olympus. A variety of models allow you to make a choice even to the most capricious fashionistas. We learn how not to lose money, with what and to whom to wear an original pair of shoes.

Historical reference

Picking up shoes or sandals on the platform (photo), we don’t even suspect that this pair of shoes has a very impressive history dating back to ancient times. Actors of ancient Greek theaters wore koturns made of cork wood (which, by the way, is practiced in our time), they were light and allowed to rise above the stage, so that even from the back rows you could see the performance.

In the East, in antiquity, wooden getas, already graceful at the time, were worn. In Europe, the platform gained popularity in the Middle Ages. It is enough to recall Venice, where the ladies were forced to wear socles. Shoes reached a height of 40 cm, and without outside help it was very difficult to move around. However, to do without such shoes was impossible because of the terrible dirt on the streets.

Shoes on the platform were eventually supplanted by ordinary models, in which it was easy to move around and dance at balls. And only in the XX century, somewhat modernized and improved, it regained its former popularity, reaching its zenith in the 70-90s. Now such models can be of completely different shapes and colors: with a separate heel, without it or on a wedge.

Platform sandals: who is suitable?

In the world of fashion, everything is built on a combination of opposites - one thing in the sense should compensate for the other. A high platform is already a bold move that attracts views and attention. And if in terms of clothes, such models are suitable for almost everything, then in terms of the figures of their owners, everything is somewhat more complicated. Women's platform sandals are primarily a way to give yourself the lack of growth, so they are ideal for short ladies. Also, they should be chosen by those who have a stocky figure. But for tall and thin girls - the option is not the best.

Wedge heels and a classic platform go well with trousers. This option will allow you to slightly rise above the ground. But with a skirt, you should be more careful, especially for women who have full legs and hips. You risk losing grace and ease of gait. Everything is strictly individual, so you need to try and choose your own platform sandals.

What to give preference to?

As already mentioned, this shoe model is quite catchy and eye-catching, so when choosing it is worth remembering several nuances. These tips will help you stay within the reasonable, without disturbing the balance and beauty. Platform sandals (photo) have one important advantage - convenience. A flat sole will lift you above the ground, allow you to choose the optimal height of the heel and at the same time reduce the load on your legs.

For an official wardrobe and style, choose a platform up to 5 cm. Such models will be appropriate in the office and at business meetings, in addition, you can well complement them with shorts or a light summer sundress (two in one). The option is most optimal for owners of high growth and slender or thin legs. A further increase in the platform for this type of figure is undesirable and may even look comical.

Visually sandals on a high platform with a heel up to 8-10 cm extend their legs well. They are very comfortable, convenient and suitable even for long walks or parties. Everything that goes beyond the designated limits, it is already difficult to call everyday shoes, rather, it is intended for any celebrations and events, important events or evening outings. In the afternoon at the office or on the beach it will not be entirely appropriate, and convenience, as a rule, is no longer a question.

The right color choice

The selection of colors plays a very important role. If you plan to wear the platform regularly and daily, then stylists recommend giving preference to classic shades. They will be in perfect harmony with almost any thing, without getting out of the way. First of all, these are all shades of beige, including the popular nude. If you choose it correctly, then the shoes will almost merge with the tone of your skin, and your legs will become longer and slimmer. White platform sandals will also be useful, according to experts, they are much more appropriate in the summer than black or dark blue, which have long found fame for the classic, but do not fit all things in the wardrobe.

To summarize, we can say the following. For casual wear, choose platform-neutral sandals that will complement the look without coming to the fore. In order to focus on slender legs, feel free to opt for bright colors (yellow, blue, red, etc.) with additional decor. These elements can be bows, laces, zippers, buckles and straps, appliqués, flowers, etc.

And remember one more rule that will help you to always be at your best both in the literal and figurative sense. The fuller the legs, the thicker the heel, and vice versa - thin studs are best suited for thin people, not a bulky platform.

Returning to the question of what to wear platform sandals with, we offer you some of the simplest and at the same time win-win options.

No. 1: with skinny jeans, leggings

We must immediately make a reservation that the second version of the bottom has the right to exist only in certain cases. Leggings are a whimsical thing, and you must initially choose them correctly. Complement the tight bottom with a looser and longer top. It can be tunics, tops, T-shirts, shirts and blouses on start.

If you are not a supporter of skinny, then you can safely pick up classic jeans or a “boyfriend” model. Almost everything except sports style is acceptable. Flared pants look very harmonious, but the length should be properly selected - it should completely hide the heel. Gorgeous images with a hint of retro style in photo 2.

No. 2: with maxi skirt

The more elaborate and extravagant shoes, the easier the cut of clothes, the fewer accessories and the ultimate brevity in everything. In photo 3, you see how quite “heavy” white sandals on a platform with corrugations fit well into the kit. This is almost a filigree job, since all things have a certain character. We recommend that you first choose a more modest option.

It was lightweight shoes in which you can quickly move around the stage.

In a fashionable look, everything is balanced, balanced. Bright details are compensated by the muffled forms and tones of other accessories.

This step imposes responsibility on the woman of fashion - everything in her must be sustained according to the laws of taste and norm.

Black platform sandals are more suitable for evening dress, and even then, not for everyone. They give the image effect, charm, even some extravagance. But such legs, for sure, will not go unnoticed.

You can summarize what has been said - in a casual summer suit, shoes should be of high quality, but should not attract special attention to themselves. So, the colors should be light, without a picture. This couple is suitable for work, for shopping, walking around the city.

If you want to emphasize the beauty of your lovely legs, want the eyes of men to be attracted to them, feel free to wear brightly decorated sandals. Choose models with applications, pastes, other accessories. Bright blue, yellow, red wedges or high sandals will be the highlight of your image.

Why wear platform sandals - you ask?

This is an almost universal shoe model. Here are a few options:

• Leggings and skinny jeans. Although in appearance the styles of these pants are similar, functionally these are different clothes. Leggings can be worn for a walk with a child, in the gym, you can wear them at home. But in public places to go out in such clothes - bad manners. In any case, tight-fitting pants should be supplemented with a loose and elongated tunic or shirt, in extreme cases a T-shirt.

Jeans can be of different cuts - flared, narrow shortened, "bananas", straight classic. The platform harmoniously combines with all models. Only sporty trousers are excluded. Long flared jeans look very stylish, covering the heel or the entire platform, if it is solid. The style of the 80-90s of the last century is now in fashion.

• An elongated skirt looks romantic. It is necessary to choose a length that would completely hide the legs and not interfere with walking. After all, the platform also creates a certain difficulty when moving. A long skirt builds a figure, makes it sophisticated, and the platform adds a few centimeters of growth.
    The style of the skirt can be different - flared, year, tight (with an impeccable figure).

• The little black dress in our view is a classic or cocktail dress. But color does not play a decisive role. Such sandals are combined with any shortened dress.
