Statement heels are an understatement for these iconic platforms. Prepare to be the talk of the party as you strut and tower over the soiree scene.
SATIN STYLE
Debuting on the Fall/Winter 2021 runway, the Versace Medusa heels have been an influencer favourite, adorning inspoboards and reels alike.
Luxurious satin drapes these platform heels, creating a sultry and silky look.
Golden Medusa heads embellish the ankle strap, complementing the shiny rhinestone gems handsewn into the strap.
LEGS FOR DAYS
“Legs for days” has a new meaning. It’s been redefined. Take these height supplements and you are guaranteed to see results.
Yes, you will tower. But you will tower ~comfortably ~. A thick, thick heel creates stability. And there’s not one but *two* platforms at the front. This means whilst you will be 15.5cm taller, you will only feel the 9.5cm true heel height. Here’s the shoe maths: 15.5cm heel – 3cm platform1 – 3cm platform2 = 9.5cm !
LEG-ENDS HAVE BEEN MADE
Leg-ends have been made in more ways than one. Indeed, there is a cute Medusa head on the strap, but there are many more legends to be made. Beyonce famously wore the heels to her 40th, and they made a striking appearance at the Peltz-Beckham wedding, giving Nicola added height.
And now it’s time for you to create a story in your Medusa Heels. With a variety of colours, there’s a stand-out shoe for every occasion. Stay safe with black, or venture out with a bright red heel. The lilac heel is my favourite- it adds a little pop of colour to your outfit without being too overpowering. Which one will you pick?
ECONOMY DOWN, HEELS UP
Semmelhack’s “Height of Fashion”, highlights that heel height increased during …
- The 1930s Great Depression – think Judy Garland’s Ferragamo rainbow platform shoes
- The 1970s Oil Crisis – and platforms
- The Dot Com Bubble Burst, just as Stilettos started soaring
- The 2007 recession
*And* Heel heights have, without a doubt, increased in 2022, just as the economy is tumbling.
A coincidence? Researchers say no. There’s a correlation between heel height and the economy. The worse the economy, the taller the heel height. Indeed, Trevor Davis, Consumer Product Expert at IBM, posits that consumers search for escapism in times of recession, and extravagant heels are the answer.
What’s at the top of your heel bucket list? Which colours do you prefer?
Let me know!
Lots of love, Jo xoxo
