7. SIGNATURE STYLE
Choo’s signature style is mainly the “four-
inch heel.” In his opinion, it is directly
related to people’s health.
“Shoes higher or lower than four inches
will make people feel uncomfortable and
are not good for a body’s balance,” Choo
explained.
However apart from this, his usual style
is just high end comfortable shoes for
stylish women. These are very expensive,
as the quality is high.
In 2014, Choo made six pairs of high heels
using materials native to Fukushima such
as Aizu cotton and lacquerware and
Kawamata silk.

13. SIGNATURE STYLE
Herrera maintains a sharp eye for the details
that can spoil a look: the stray hair, a skirt
that wrinkles across the hips, the bodice that
strains against its buttons. Her style is not
fussy or old-fashioned, but it is formal. It is
considered.
Herrera’s style stands out in our aggressively
informal times. To attend a runway show for
her signature collection is to be swept into a
room filled with social swells, wealthy
shoppers and ladies with foreign accents and
terribly convoluted names suggesting nobility
somewhere in the upper branches of their
family tree.
Most important, her clothes are about style
and elegance achieved by her trademark of
shoulders, sleeves, line, and construction.
Herrera has continued to design for women
like herself who are wealthy and
sophisticated.
