DEAR BRIDE! Women love shoes. But why is this? A survey conducted by the German Gewiss Institute found out that one in two women has more than 25 pairs of shoes. So what’s behind all this?

Psychologists believe that shoes play an important role in identity formation. Depending on the mood and event, shoes can transform a person. Flat-heeled sport shoes are an expression of coolness; stilettos are ideal for the grand appearance.

Your special day offers you a great variety of transformation opportunities. We are committed to supporting you with this transformation. Simply turn the page and allow us to convince you with the heavenly shoes from our 2016 collection.

Lots of love!

Julia F.: “Navy blue! I simply love my wedding shoes – first of all because I absolutely love peeptoes and secondly because they fit perfectly into our colour concept (blue and yellow).“

Mel D.: “My shoes were turquoise, which matched the garter I wore underneath my dress.“ Ricarda W.: “They will definitely be coloured!

I can imagine a soft pink hue – matching a vintage wedding.“

Photo: Toni Kolbe Photography, www.tonikolbe.com

Katharina K.: “My shoes are from the Rainbow collection by Elsa Coloured Shoes. I had them coloured pink. The colour was repeated throughout the entire wedding – for instance with the ribbon of the bridal bouquet or with my husband’s socks.”

Sunshine Claudi: “For the civil ceremony, I wore shoes in dusky pink - matching the bridal garter. Next year, for the church wedding, I will wear shoes in royal blue.“

How high

8 ULTIMATE WEDDING SHOE TIPS 1 6 Mel W: Jacqueline K:

"For the outdoor photo shoot, maybe slip into sneakers – then the actual wedding shoes stay clean."

08 ELSA!

2 Joyce E:

"If the shoes are too tight: There are special sprays that can widen them.“

3 Sabina K:

"When wearing the shoes barefoot: first cover the feet with baby powder. Then they'll remain nice and dry."

Elsa 2016 EN.indd 8

4 Sandra B:

"Never wear shoes with heels higher than those you are used to wearing. I also had 12 cm heels that looked really great, but almost killed me within an hour."

5 Natasja H:

“Real shoe-lovers obviously find their dream shoes first and then start looking for a matching wedding dress!“

"Pamper your feet the day before.

I had on my peeptoes - they were pinching. Unfortunately, my feet were still hurting the next day."

7 Julia K:

"Wear them all the time!

Whatever you do, do not take them off in-between!“

8 Emy D:

"Aching feet are a no-go at your wedding. So, don't forget the blister plasters and substitute shoes."

"I'M GOING TO TOWN NOW TO GET SOMETHING FOR MY SORE THROAT. SHOES FOR INSTANCE!" "Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue."

12 ELSA!

Patsy from the Rainbow Club collection

LITTLE BLUE STONES Every shoe from the Rainbow Club collection has a blue crystal underneath the sole.

Really practical; this way you’ll definitely have something blue in your wedding outfit!

HOW IS IT WORN?

WHAT DOES IT STAND FOR?

SOMETHING OLD

Many brides use jewellery from their mother or grandmother

Symbol for your life so far

SOMETHING NEW

Probably the easiest part! One hardly ever wears as many new items as at one’s wedding!

Symbol for the start of your married life

SOMETHING BORROWED

How about the beautiful hair clip of your best friend?

Symbol for friendship.

Ideally, you should borrow something from a happily married woman!

SOMETHING BLUE

A little blue stone on the sole of your shoes!

Symbol for faithfulness

A different heel for every shoe

Block heels: Slightly broader heel, providing a solid base.

Elsa 2016 EN.indd 12

Stiletto: Very thin, high tapering heel, which is often considered sexy.

Wedges: Shoes with a wedge heel. They are suited for outdoor weddings, on lawns or on the beach.

Kitten Heels: relatively short, slender heel with a slight curve, well-suited for newcomers to the high heel scene.

Peep-Toe: Shoes: Pumps in which there is an opening at the front, allowing the toes to show.

Ankle Boots: Boots that reach to or just above the ankle, frequently with block heels or a slight plateau.

Mary Janes: A closed, lowcut shoe with a strap across the instep.

START LOW!

If you have never baked a cake, it is probably wise not to start with a five tiered wedding cake. Similar rules apply for high heels: Don’t start with towering stilettos. Start with a heel height of about three centimetres and increase the height gradually.

Shoes: Jennifer with shoe clips Carina and Vela from rainbow Club.

1

A GOOD START

On your big day, you would like to look stunning from head to toe. In the specialist stores for bridal fashion, you will find a large selection of divine shoes that have been designed especially for brides. They are comfortable and go well with the current bridal gown collections.

Elsa 2016 EN.indd 18

The wedding shoes can be pimped with beautiful shoe clips.

2

THE RIGHT SHOE SIZE

Sounds easy, but it’s not. A size 38 is not the same in every shoe collection. Take your time trying on the shoes before purchasing them.

By the way, the best time to try on

4

POINTED OR ROUND?

5

SUSPENSE!

Pointed shoes appear elegant but sometimes are not comfortable. A slightly rounded tip or peeptoes give your foot more space, making wearing them for longer simpler.

With the first test run, tense your stomach muscles, take your shoulders back and keep your chin up. Start by confidently placing your weight on your heel, rolling off with the toes.

26-10-15 16:05

6

10

PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT

To get used to wearing your new heels, we recommend wearing them when doing housework, for instance when ironing. To ensure that the shoes don’t get dirty in the process, you can simply pull a pair of thick socks over them.

11

Start your high heel training as early as possible.

Shoe: Jennifer from Rainbow Club.

SUBSTITUTE PAIR

For your wedding day, a pair of substitute shoes are the obvious choice for wearing later on in the evening. Tip: Naturally, you are not the only one with aching feet. Score bonus points with your female guests by providing a big basket with flip-flops in a variety of different sizes. The wedding party can last much longer as a result!

SELECT A SOLID FOUNDATION

Extremely thin soles offer very little support when walking. Thus it’s better to select a shoe with a slightly thicker sole, for example a platform sole. The foot can then better compensate for the pressure. Many shoes from the Elsa collections are filled with foam on the inside – for extra-long wearing comfort!

TOE TAPE

Pardon? Yes, really! A super trick is to tape the third and fourth toe (counting from the big toe outward) with medical tape. Because there is a nerve between these two toes that connects to the ball of the foot, the pressure on the nerve is relieved with the tape.

12

YOU CAN MAKE IT!

Don’t let others discourage you, who say that you can’t walk on high heels the whole day. With the right preparation, you will succeed!

19 ELSA!

Take your time finding the perfect shoes.

TAKE IT SLOW

There is a reason why one shouldn’t run a marathon in high heels.

With high heels one quite simply takes smaller steps than with flat shoes.

Hence: Walk to the altar nice and slowly!

9

TAKE BREAKS FROM TIME TO TIME

The trick that allows you to walk in high heels the whole day? Sit down for a minute every once in a while. Needless to say, being the bride, this is not always possible, but take a little time for sitting down during the day. But whatever you do, do not take off your shoes! The chance of your feet then swelling is great.
