  • [li] The 17th Century shoe on the left, which may have been French, was for a child - its stacked leather heel was painted red to suggest privilege[/li]
  • [li] "An obvious link with Louis XIV and the red sole and heel is Christian Louboutin's red sole (right), which is today one of the most immediate and recognisable status symbols," says Helen Persson from the Victoria and Albert Museum[/li]
  • [li] But while today's fashion designers have a huge array of plastics and metals in their toolbox, it was an engineering challenge for 17th Century shoemakers to support the instep on a high heel[/li]
  • [li] One solution was to place the heel very far forward in the shoe - this effectively transferred the problem from the shoemaker to the wearer[/li]
