Louboutin Lust: Stilts for Spring

During one of our many excursions to Holt Renfrew in Vancouver (our favorite "museum"), my friend tried the astronomically high black patent Louboutins aptly dubbed "Highness". The heel measures 160mm (6.3"- approaching stilt status). We noticed that not only is there the factor of pure height, the platform itself narrows toward the base, decreasing the area on which you stand and increasing precarity. Obviously it takes a very practiced and strong ankle to be able to pull off actually walking in these babies (enter Gaga), but they are amazing in a photograph. For your viewing pleasure:
