The 'sensuous impulse' in design is a way to describe the rich and extravagant form of design that uses curve and asymmetry to create a composition that is unusual but decadent. Inspiration for the curves and sensuality comes from nature in its organic form, which is why when humans were painted in a style like the Rococo of Baroque they are curvaceous and rounded. The sensuous impulse has manifested itself throughout history appearing in various design periods including Art Nouveau. Today it can be seen in the design of high end shoes. The Miu Miu shoes pictured are an example of how it has manifested itself in the current time. The brand is a luxury brand, expensive and flashy, just like the styles the 'sensuous impulse' appears in.
The shoes pictured are Miu Miu wedges and was sourced from their website.
