"The platform is the Frankenstein of footwear."
Manolo Blahnik
That's right, the king of shoes says no to platforms shoes.
He talked about them in an interview made by The Guardian.
Here there is an extracked from the interview:
"You ask if a woman can wear my shoes if she is not blessed with fine ankles? All is not lost! There are tricks to draw the eye; a bow at the ankle to divert the gaze and the cut over the toes. The woman I would refuse is the one who asks for platform shoes. If one of the designers I work with is having a platform-heeled moment, I say no, I just can’t. The platform is the Frankenstein of footwear. "
Well, I think he isn't that wrong, what do you think?
