In the spring season of 2017, not only grandmothers are relevant, but also shoes with a high platform. A flat sole or a low heel is undeniably comfortable. It is always comfortable in such shoes, the legs are resting, but each of us has the desire to see ourselves at the best.

For the spring-summer season, designers have prepared a choice for us - models with flat soles and models with a bulky platform. The last option was considered in casual collections, grunge, sporty or romantic. I must say that the platform is perfectly adaptable to different style solutions.

Shoes on the platform visually slim the figure and add height, and this is a lot, 6-12 centimeters can radically change the proportions, and maybe personal life ...



These shoes look heavier and therefore not suitable for everyone. The platform can be on a wedge heel or on shoes with a heel. Choosing a massive platform paired with either a heel or a wedge heel suits those who want to stand out.

In the collections of famous brands, various types of platform shoes are presented:

1. With a massive molded sole;
2. Models with pillar or stiletto heels;
3. Sports shoes - sneakers, sneakers and slip-ons with a colored platform;
4. Boots, loafers and shoes with a tractor platform;
5. Boots are massive, with buckles and decorative straps or chains.



The most popular is leather. However, there are many summer footwear made from textiles. There are many types of platform, and designers have even more imaginations, and therefore new models keep appearing and appearing. However, reality suggests that not everything can be worn.

Let's name the most frequently encountered models:


Massive outsole is one of the most popular today. Classic shoes, loafers, slip-ons, men's shoes, boots are lifted onto a bulky sole ... However, not all of them look bold or harsh, even with a tractor sole. Designers often combine severity and grace, a rough shape with bright colors.

High-heeled toe platform shoes

Every girl looks slim in these shoes. And the height of the platform depends on your personal views on beauty and convenience. The rise of the leg may not be too high due to the ratio of the platform in the forefoot and the height of the heel. The heel can be a column or a stiletto.

This option looks especially impressive, but with very high heels, walking on them is not so convenient. The same variant, a high heel with a platform in the forefoot, may have a variant - a "hidden" platform. In the toe box, it looks like a continuation of the top of the shoe.




Shoes with a solid platform without a heel. This is a sporty option. And if a solid platform raises you 3-4 cm, then you can safely put on these shoes, it will fit any legs. True, in sports shoes, sometimes the rubber sole is somewhat heavy.

Fashionable wedge shoes

Wedge shoes often look more elegant than a massive platform. This particular model is suitable for girls with full legs. The wedge is the sole that combines the heel and toe. The wedge is usually tapered at the toe and widens towards the heel. That is why the shoes have a more elegant look. In the collections of recent seasons, the wedge heel is often complemented by a platform.



The choice of platform shoes depends on what kind of legs you have, height, proportions.

If you are a petite girl with thin legs, then shoes with a massive platform can be cumbersome for you. Leggings or knee-highs with a short skirt, dress or shorts will help balance this problem. The same will be done by banana trousers, harem pants, balloon skirts or colored tights, as well as tights with a pattern.

With a high height, platform shoes can lift you even higher, but this will not always be beautiful. Therefore, the height of the platform should be chosen very carefully.

A massive platform for girls with full legs will visually increase them even more. In this case, choose a wedge heel.

Platform shoes may be the best choice. On the one hand, it will add height, on the other hand, shoes on the platform are more comfortable, since the load on the foot is reduced by the platform, and the legs get tired less.
