scroll about halfway down on this page to the heading "The evolution of ballet slippers"

There are two references to slipper development in the section "Early Professional Ballet"

That's what i found. you may find more if you then research the names of dancers associated with slipper development.

history of ballet shoes search for that google or yahoo
