The
name Manolo Blahnik figures in countless high fashion events as he is
probably the most famous shoe designer in Spain, and amongst the
internationally known shoe designers as well. In the New York Fashion
Week though, his name was mentioned many more times than usual but,
unlike what he had been used to - the always unison delightful comments
and praises, this time was more connected to the unfortunate accidents
several models suffered, due to his ultra high pin-like heels.
During the presentation of the fashions designed by the Columbian designer Brain Reyes, a model was tripped over by her very high heels. She, being professional, simply picked herself and her shoes up and continued the show barefooted. Merely a short while later, two other models tripped themselves over too. In an act of solidarity, during the finale at the end when as a custom all models would come back onto the Catwalk together, they decided to leave off their stilettos, carried these in their hands, and paraded barefooted, to very approving and conspiratorial applause from the audience.
This should serve as a warning to all fashion conscious ladies to take into account, that a woman is never beautiful if whatever she is wearing is uncomfortable, because nature would put that on your face and shows it too on your posture. Same with a garment or some accessories which actually hurt or, worse still, when they become dangerous, causing injury and health hazards.
I am only a fashion victim when it comes to shoes, as I am very, very partial to high heels. Fortunately I have never been so daft to the extent of tottering on 5-6 inch stilettos. They might be a real eye catcher & makes you look stunning, but you can't help but lose grace, poise and elegance when your balance is tipped. What you gain in appearance is no compensation at all in comparison.
