The
artifact I have picked for my movie is a pair of my high heeled shoes. Designed
by Vera Wang, these black heels are approximately two inches tall and are made
of a black, metallic material. To add extra glitz and glam, the shoes have a
hint of glitter to make them sparkle and are finished with silver rhinestone
and bead embellishments. An elastic strap is attached to the shoe to keep my
foot from sliding out when I wear them. To support the heel itself, the
platform is made of thick black material with multiple layers. There are several openings in the
heels; there are two on either side where the decorative part and side of the
shoe meet and one at the end to give the shoes an "open-toed" effect.
A white tag is located on the flat part of the heel saying "Simply Vera
Wang" as to indicate who the designer is. The form of these heels are
specific to me by being based on my shoe size which means this pair of heels
will only fit me. I wear my high-heels when I dress up for special occasions
such as a party, banquet, or interview. I feel sophisticated and appealing when
wearing these shoes.
The label on the inside of the shoe
promotes the designer (in this case Vera Wang) and is a way to advertise the
designers other products to women. A sense of ownership and individuality is
given when a woman purchases a pair of high-heels. A pair of high-heels in the
correct size is packaged in one, individual box and given to the consumer. The
heels in the box are specifically for them and cannot be worn by or used by
anyone else but the consumer. The trend of high-heels have spread across to
different cultures of the world. Many girls and women of different countries
have seen models wear high heels as they promote other products or star in
movies. This suggests that to be pretty and attractive, a female should own and
wear a pair of high-heels. Once women have one pair of high heels, they
instantly need more; these specific shoes attract all women of society. The
high-heel style has brought us women in the world something that only females
can wear. Many versions of the high-heels are out there and my pair is just one
of them.
