Do you know that heels in a red shade were introduced into the fashion world by King Louis XIV? The king issued a decree that allowed only the subjects in his favor to put on heels in red. That was a royal privilege. Thus, red shoes used to make aristocrats stand out.

Nowadays, at the back of mind, we see heels in red as an indicator of privilege and wealth. And that is why we love them so much.
