chie mihara spring 2010

Posted Jan 22, 2010 by gravitypope in chie mihara, spring 2010, women's shoes

A definite trend in women's shoes for spring 2010 is the platform. One of the most comfortable are the great styles from Chie Mihara. Chie Mihara was born to Japanese parents in Porto Alegre, Brazil in 1968. She lived in Japan from age 18 to 22 and studied fashion design in Kyushyu Design Gakkuin. The concept of her work is design, comfort and quality. She likes to create things that have something to communicate, a feeling or a state of mind. She greatly admires the work of artisans who create to give life. Thatâ€™s what she wants to doâ€¦ give a little happiness with her creations.

A reorder of Chie Mihara's ever so popular Atame shoe has arrived. This beautiful platform is made even more eye catching with by the over sized, yet perfectly balanced, bow. The atame is an exceptional example of femininity, but for those looking for that perfect bootie, look no further than Chie Mihara's Ayoi. Both of these styles have been selling very fast so hurry to the site to secure yours before they are gone for good. For a special treat, we have a great video interviewing Chie herself!

The oldest known sandal, and oldest know footwear, was discovered in Fort Rock Cave in Oregon (Robbins, William G. (2005). Oregon: This Storied Land. Oregon Historical Society Press). Woven from sagebrush bark, it was dated to at least 10 000 B.C. Since then the sandal has taken on many variations but has always been a mainstay during summers warmest days.
