The Shoes for the Quinceañera

The Quinceañera’s footwear should coincide with the color and the quality of the dress and the type of season of the year, closed toe-shoe for winter and opened toe-shoe for summer.

Variety of Shoes
Options nowadays are greater:
• Traditional satin shoes that match the color of the dress.
• Metallic shoes, generally golden or silver
• Decorated sandals with sequences
• Shoes and sandals decorated with lace

The extra pair of shoes should be comfortable and should also be the same color as the dress, in order to keep the harmony and elegance at the dance and reception. Avoid going barefoot at any time because you cannot handle the heels or because you forgot to bring the extra shoes. The shoes never should be black or brown. If the color of the dress is very special and you do not find the exact color, purchase more fabric and send your shoes to be customized. Remember that you must purchase more than one pair of shoes because there is a pair (flats) that you will wear at the beginning of the ceremony which will be exchanged for another pair (typically high heels) later in the ceremony. This is a part of the ceremony and represents the change from young lady to woman.
