Why is 🧝Galadriel barefoot?

[Furrexxx]

So, any reasons why Galadriel barefoot?

 

[Vorondil]

I mean its okay if she leaves dirty footprints in her palace?

There is a magical substance which is born from the union of two hydrogen atoms, and one oxygen atom. This wondrous element is so powerful, that when dirty feet are washed in it, all traces of filth are removed. And I'm sure that someone as powerful as Galadriel, would have some available for washing her filthy toes.

Pondering, it strikes me it could possibly be easier to wipe dirt off bare feet, than off shoes and/or boots.
Fortunately, neither feet nor boots are an issue I've a problem with personally. Nor palaces, nor man-made floors, nor... oh, skip it.

Nenya preserves Galadriel's toes in a constant state of clean.

would that I had such power!

 

[Furrexxx]

But if serious. What reasons for her to not wear shoes?

You'll have to ask Peter Jackson. He added many things -- or in this case, subtracted things -- in his personal fanfic version. One addition was Helm's "hammer", which I see has found its way into WotR.

 

[Elthir]

Are we still chatting about
Galadriel's purrrrfect feet?

Excellent!

Not all of us are always shoe-bootless
of course, but in any case, for myself. . .

I'd love to feel the green grass of Lórien
under my beautiful 🐾 🐾

 

[Squint-eyed Southerner]

And much better for ballet!

 

[Elthir]

LOL!

Such beauty is truly inspiring!

But just in your opinion is any reasons for her to not wear shoes?

Cool. Steamcat.

I'm afraid I have no opinions on the fanfic versions.

Other than annoyance, of course.

Nerwen likely had footwear during
the crossing of the Grinding Ice. Or
her nails might have turned white!

I think there's at least one scene when Catedriel is barefoot
in The Hobbit films.

Despite the following. . .

I don't remember her in Hobbit wearing shoes

 

[Squint-eyed Southerner]

According to Elthir's photo, it seems she wore crocs.

 

[Elthir]

I think that's from The Hobbit?

If not, in any case, in The Hobbit you can see Catedriel's
unshod feet just before she gets angry at a large eye.

Elrond and Saruman are there too.
And Gandalf; but he's taken away.

In your opinion why she go barefoot in Dol Guldur?

 

[Elthir]

Ahh, here's a scene from The Hobbit film, if the earlier picture was something or someone else!

[Erestor Arcamen]

Write a letter to Peter Jackson or whoever did costuming. None of us here would have a definitive answer to why Galadriel was barefoot in the movies.

I would quote a well-known verse related to this, but well... probably shouldn't.
Suffice it to say there are far worse things to worry about than a little dirt on the feet.
