After the May 4th Movement of 1, the bad habit of foot binding was gradually abolished, and women regained the autonomy of their feet and put on embroidered shoes of normal size. But because embroidered shoes are made of expensive silks and satins, and then embroidered with flowers and birds with silk thread, they belong to the exclusive products of rich wives and daughters. In Shanghai, ladies and gentlemen frequently go out to social occasions, and they strive for beauty, thus creating a professional street of embroidered shoes. There are more than 100 professional workshops in Beijing and Shanghai. The embroidered shoes displayed in the window are colorful and decorate the streets like blooming flowers.
2. In the 1940s, dignitaries were still the main ethnic group wearing embroidered shoes, and the service mode was customization, that is, measuring the size of customers' feet. After the customers selected the colors and embroidery patterns, they first gave them to someone to draw the patterns, and then the embroidery workers embroidered the patterns according to the patterns, and then cut and sewed them into uppers. Finally, cut the leather into the shape of the sole, then spread layers of cloth soles on it, and then sew the upper and sole together, which is a solid work.
Later, embroidered shoes gradually became fixed-size shoes made of shoe last for sale; In addition, with the appearance of plastic and super glue, the sole is changed from leather to cheap plastic sole, and the upper and sole can be bonded with super glue, which saves production time and gradually reduces the price. As long as women who love beauty can put on these light, comfortable and exquisite shoes, embroidered shoes became the hottest fashion at that time.
3. By the middle of the last century, sports shoes, casual shoes and fashionable high heels had become popular indicators for ladies and gentlemen to pursue fashion, and the embroidered footwear industry was facing a crisis of survival. The retro style in the 1990s pushed embroidered shoes, which had been silent for 20 years, back to the popular trend, forming a grand occasion of selling out as soon as they were put on the shelves. However, manufacturers also see that embroidered shoes must be innovated in tradition if they want to capture the hearts of young consumers, so the patterns are no longer fixed on flowers and birds, and the color matching is bolder. For example, black, white and denim fabrics, which were taboo in the past, are also applied to uppers. Even the shoe last has a pointed or square head style, and the heel also has a flat bottom and high heels.
In recent years, embroidered shoes have fallen to the bottom again. When the fashion trend will turn to embroidered shoes again is anyone's guess. However, with the difficulty of finding female embroidery workers, manual embroidery has been gradually replaced by electronic embroidery, and it will become more and more difficult to find embroidered shoes with one stitch by hand in the future.
Personally, I appreciate embroidered shoes, but I feel that there are few exquisite embroidered shoes. In addition, embroidered shoes are not waterproof and are not suitable for making clothes. There are limited occasions to wear. Another disadvantage is that it is not easy to clean up, so many people will not choose.
Just go shopping or get together with friends. It will look very bright, of course, with the right clothes. ...
The improved embroidered shoes can try the appearance of high heels, and the soles are preferably waterproof, which will be more acceptable. As for beauty, we can refer to the works of some fashion masters, let go of our thinking, and more elements will be better.
