NoIn the varied and exciting panorama of women’s footwear there are timeless cornerstones, evergreens of style suitable for all ages and aesthetics. The female dancers certainly fall into this category. Although they have never really left the closets, in recent seasons the footwear symbol of plié and étoile have known an unprecedented and overwhelming fame. The merit is above all of Miuccia Pradawho has reimagined them as infinitely feminine and graceful, in a delicate satin, for his girls Miu Miu. However, there are many designers who have signed their own interpretation, proposing traditional models or original alternatives. Confirming a spring on tiptoe.
Classics revisited

Indissoluble couples
The comfort and the versatility are undoubtedly two strong points in the nature of female dancers. Low to the ground and soft, they can be worn easily from morning to evening. In pairings there is only the embarrassment of choice. It ranges between denim and classic trousers, preferably with a high waist and a cut flare, so as to make the footwear protagonists and, at the same time, lengthen the figure. Both midi and mini lengths work with dresses and skirts, alternating a chaste sophistication with a fresh femininity. The boldest styling? The one with the Bermuda shorts, new objects of desire.
