Shoes and Produce

In 1900s according to the Shoe Retailer and Boots and Shoes Weekly, harvest was used to display shoes.
A shoe shape is ubiquitous. It looks like a little boat. Consider the once famous brand in India - Bata. Ciabatta - slipper. A bread loaf.
Food shoes and Bread Slippers is a thing. In Indian Culture, food is a form of God and hence is longways from the shoe.






                                                                                          
Mismatched shoes are a trend this year. The yin and yang, the summer fire and the cool ice to beat it are a great combination for this season.
When it comes to design, summer is a perfect time for some soothing green as well as bright pink of the watermelon to grace your feet. Two colors shoes is great for contrast as well as wholeness.
Now I am thinking, couldnt you shape tiny watermelon shells into shoes like the big ones scooped out to look like  a basket.
