Red Shoe? It symbolises being trodden on the blood of the Innocent. It's a mocking ritual they do and the more that see the shoes the more powerful the magic becomes. https://voat.co/v/theawakening/3050959 Red Shoe Wearing - Hyper-Anti-Trump - AU Based Globalist - Resigns Parliament Red Shoe Club? https://voat.co/v/GreatAwakening/3004947 Ruby Slippers LSD blotter paper, Kamala Harris, Planned Parenthood selling baby parts and Bay area pedo priests coverups https://voat.co/v/GreatAwakening/3280565 ? The Red Shoe Club - From Tony Podesta to Hampstead to Las Vegas https://voat.co/v/pizzagate/2980391 In the XVII and XVIII centuries, under Louis XIV, only aristocratic men had the right to wear red heels. At the time, red ink came from grinding a red insect imported from Mexico, which made it extremely expensive. This clearly separated the haves and the have-nots. Naturally, red heels went out of fashion with the arrival of the French Revolution.

Two hundred years later, Hans Christian Andersen wrote “The Red Shoes.” This story talked about Karen, a poor girl who, after her mother’s death, is adopted by an elderly, blind woman. One day Karen discovers a pair of red shoes peaking from under the dress of a princess and she’s overcome by the desire to own a pair. Unable to resist her vanity, she gets her adoptive mother (who can’t see the color) to buy her red shoes. Against the orders of the clergy in her church, Karen wears them for her Confirmation and her Communion eliciting negative feelings in the community.

Those red shoes become her obsession and her demise. Once she puts them on, Karen starts dancing frenetically and is unable stop. With a life of their own, the shoes take her into the woods and end up getting her all scratched and hurt. Eventually, exhausted and bloody, Karen ends up in front of the door of the town’s executioner. As punishment for her sins, Karen asks the executioner to cut off her feet and shoes rather than her head. So he does and the feet with the red shoes fly away. The story continues for a bit but the moral seems to be that the red shoes symbolize some obscure desire, the vain nature of Karen, which at the time was considered a big sin. Red shoes were the prerogative first of Roman senators, and later solely of the emperor. Popes have worn red since the thirteenth century, while both Edward IV and Henry VIII were buried in red shoes as emblems of the imonarchical power. In the seventeenth century, Louis XIV wore red heels on his shoes as a sym-bol of the divine right of the king. As argued by Elizabeth Semmelhack in this volume, this style filtered down, through imitation, to the aristocracy of both sexes and by the eighteenth century it had become a sign of aspirational fashionability. The cost and quality of shoes made of fine,red morocco leather meant that they were status symbols. By the late eighteenth century, roman-tic Orientalism transmuted this material into Turkish-style slippers, favored as informal wear for gentlemen of means into the twentieth century.

Melania wearing black stelletos with the bottoms (underneath) red could have been symbolic of trampling those who wear red shoes that symbolize evil. https://www.breitbart.com/entertainment/2018/11/12/fashion-notes-in-paris-melania-trump-is-one-style-step-ahead-until-the-end/
