Reflection: I have a friend who is my classmate in 建國 senior high, is  also a student of professor葉 and his dream is to become a famous designer.However, I can still remember clearly that how despair and angry our teacher was at the first time he talk about his dream. If someday I go back to my senior high school, I think I would find her and told her become a designer is what a great, mighty dream.

Reflection : The host of museum told us lots about the history of Salvatore Ferragamo. She also told about some important design of the shoe. One made me really impressive is the Invisile Shoe which was made in 1940s. I think it must be a big innovation in that era. However, I do not like this brand, maybe, because Ferragamo makes women shoe. None of them caught my eyes but it might be great to some others.

Reflection:
     The roaring 20s, the era that many designers and the sense of fashion popped out because they have what they wanted to change especially in mind. Not only did the ones that truly became famous put their ideas into action, but also affected the society of their time. 
     Salvatore Ferragamo started from creating wearable works of art for Hollywood superstars. At that time, people only wore black or brown for their shoes, however, Ferragamo didn't think that should be the case. He designed shoes that were colorful, representing novelty. Nonetheless, the lacks of resources during the first world war made him use humble materials for the soles of the shoes. But nobody knew that this would be the symbol of this shoe brand.
     All in all, his spirit of never giving up is one that we should all learn.

Video 1: Salvatore Ferragamo Shoe Museum

Reflection
From the video, I find that most of Ferragamo shoes are designed for hot days. Strangely, boots do not appear in the museum. Females are often willing to wear a pair of boots to make them more charming and in Hollywood movies, actresses always can be seen walking with cool boots. Now that Ferragamo specializes in women’s shoes, maybe there should be more boots in its items.

I prefer the ballet flat than the high heels of Ferragamo. Although the high heels have much surface to modify with colors or icons, I doubt that if it is comfortable to wear such works of art.
Notes
The brand was found in 1927.
The characteristics of shoes: the use of color(Ferragamo loved lively colors, sunny yellow, intense red, dark blue and Harold green); the use of odds materials.

Reflection:
Actually, I don't like the style of Ferragamo. Many times I think I don't understand fashion. I don't understand why the style is too old for the old age. I don't understand why the invisible shoes won a prize. I don't know why the price are so expensive. I don't now why so many people like that. Anyway, teacher told us it' doesn't matter we don't like it. It work for Hollywood famous starts. Maybe that's why it is important in the world.

Presentation Summary & Reflection
Guccio Gucci founded his company in Florence and opened his first workshop there in 1921. He changed simple leather satchel bags to luxury luggage. Later, Gucci’s three sons joined him and expanded the company. And Gucci get new change now, the designs are younger and more funcky.
Actually, I don’t understand why Gucci have such a big change which makes new ones are no more like the old ones. The black one with blue and yellow star is really attractive to me, I mean the design, but if it takes thousands dollars I would never buy it. I rather get one at shida night market.
