Evidence has also been found indicating that people in Ancient Greece and Rome wore high heels called 'Kothorni' or 'Buskins'. These shoes would have heels made of wood and would be worn primarily by actors. Other evidence of the use of high heels in ancient times comes from Ancient Rome, during the time when prostitution was considered illegal. During this period, sex workers would wear high heels for identification purposes.

In the Middle Ages in Europe, a product called 'Pattens' was used mainly by men and women. She was referring to the wooden soles that could be easily attached to shoes, to avoid stepping on dirt when walking outdoors. 'Pattens' was believed to be the forerunner of the invention of the 'Chopines'. 'Chopines' referred to a more primitive version of today's platform heels, invented in Turkey in the 15th century. It was used widely throughout Europe until the mid-1600s. Chopines would be up to 30 inches tall and women were required to use a cane or the help of a servant so that they could walk comfortably without tripping. Like the patterns, the chopines were also tied to shoes and were mainly worn by women.

High heels gained full acceptance in the latter part of the 19th century. This was replaced by the demand for comfortable flat shoes in the early 20th century. In the mid-20th century, fashions changed, and as hems increased, the demand for stylish high-heeled shoes increased. Again, in the 1930s, heels were shortened in length, a trend that was soon superseded by the demand for elegant high heels in a variety of patterns, ranging from bright to colorful. This trend was popularized by the new varieties of heels worn by Hollywood celebrities. In the 1940s, due to World War II, the availability of luxury items declined and heels became chunky, simple, and unadorned.

The stiletto had a low instep and a narrow heel. However, they were not very well accepted and some public buildings prohibited the use of stilettos because they were believed to damage the floors.

With the growing popularity of the miniskirt in the early 1960s, shoes with stilettos also became popular. Again, with the rise of the feminist movement, feminists began to oppose stilettos because it was believed that they restricted the movement of women and slowed them down when they escaped male violence. As a result, low-heeled shoes with a square toe were developed. Later, in the 1960s, the platform shoe was developed, which became very popular in the 1970s.
