All heel the stiletto
It’s not that women are masochists. But if a pair of shoes is this sexy, they are going to wear it no matter how painful they may be.
Stilettos rose to fame in the mid-1900s, when Hugh Hefner chose narrow-bladed heels to be part of the official attire for his Playboy Playmates. Today, Manolo Blahnik, Jimmy Choo, and Christian Louboutin’s shoe collections cannot be completed without a line of sharp, dazzling stilettos.
Stilettos have become a stylish fetish item for many women. Sex and the City may be to blame for this. Nonetheless, they’re the perfect choice for office wear, evening wear, even casual wear with a simple pair of jeans. A stiletto’s sleek, slender heel may go up to 18 centimeters with less than 1 centimeter in diameter. Clearly, they’re meant for those who aren’t afraid of heights.
If you are indeed one of these women, add Stilettos to your Timeless 50.
