But are all these 5-, 6- and even 7-inch heels really that necessary? And what message do they send those over-gifted in the height department?
Sky-high heels have been in vogue for quite a while, taking sizable space in most shoe stores. Last year, Monsieur Louboutin said his 6- and 7-inch stilettos were selling so well that he planned to introduce an 8-inch platform this fall.
Holy skyscrapers.
For tall girls like me (I’m almost 5-foot-9, which is actually short in the tall category, but taller than most), this is hardly good news. Strap on a pair of half-footers, and we may need an oxygen mask.
