Extra long and super glamorous: cuissardes boots have made us fall in love for generations, remaining among the most desired shoes ever.

The very famous over-the-knee boots are in fact a symbol of seduction and femininity: their timeless charm, as well as their beauty, is determined by their versatility which makes them perfect for different looks. Flat or with heels, they are beautiful in addition with midi dresses, pencil skirts, miniskirts but also more casual outfits such as jeans.

 

No longer just black, cuissardes today more than yesterday, are at the center of catwalks, collections and trends, confirming themselves among the inevitable musts of all of us' wardrobes. In suede, coconut effect, brown, white, coloured, very tight like a glove or with a wide shaft, thin heel, wide heel, tapered, square or round toe... there are so many cuissardes to satisfy all styles and tastes.

But of all the different models, one thing never changes: their length, over the knee or even in their maxi version, mid-thigh.

Worn and made famous by great divas such as Brigitte Bardot (iconic with the black cuissardes custom designed for her by Roger Vivier to shoot the 1967 Harley Davidson video) or the unforgettable Julia Roberts in Pretty Woman with her black patent leather cuissardes, enhance the figure and silhouette.

Well yes, because against all false myths, they are also good for the petite ones. The secret is to balance the figure by choosing longer leggings and mini dresses or slim fit trousers. Then pay attention to the width: for slimmer legs, tight cuissardes are preferable, otherwise choose soft models with a wide leg.
