Leonardo da Vinci is credited with inventing the high heel, primarily for Catherine d'Medici's wedding at the age of 14 to the Duke of Orleans in 1533. Catherine d'Medici was so small that she wore these two inch heels to exaggerate her height. These heels set the trend for many women thereafter, including Mary Tudor "Bloody Mary".
