"Shoes transform your body language and attitude. They lift you physically and emotionally."

Christian Louboutin

"My mom would take me to restaurants, and the first thing I’d ask for would be a pen and a napkin, and I’d sketch shoes and shoes and shoes."

Alexander Wang

"Craziness in a shoe is great – you can have much more freedom, you can exaggerate and it doesn’t feel stupid. But to have too much craziness near your face, that would just feel weird."

Miuccia Prada
