A Quote by Patricia Marx

High heels weren't always a girl thing. In the fifteen-hundreds, the riding shoes of French noblemen were fitted with raised heels so that their feet stayed put in the stirrups. Over the next few decades, heels inched higher on dress shoes, particularly among men of privilege.

All I want are high heels, high heels. If I was a girl, I'd wear a lot of high heels. High, stiletto heels.

Isaac Mizrahi

The highest heels I do are six-inch heels - but mostly only dancers can wear them, since they are used to being on point in ballet shoes. Their feet are arched.

Christian Louboutin

In the course of my day, I'll probably go through four pairs of shoes! I start the day in flats.I'll change into some mid-range heels because if I typically have lunch speeches. Then, I'll drop down to a pair of kitten heels for a couple of hours to rest my feet and legs, before I change for the evening into my hall shoes.

Leah D. Daughtry

I'm Latina. I was born with high heels. We crossed border in high heels. We were running from immigration...I can do aerobics in heels.

Eva Longoria

Men in high heels? That's a prosthesis. But I sympathise. Women have these giant heels. They get taller and taller. The men need help. But a man in heels is ridiculous.

Christian Louboutin

I love heels, and as a size 36, I've accumulated a wall of amazing high heels from catwalk shows over the years where designers had to make especially small shoes. Tom Ford's golden versions are my favourite. I do, however, also live in my flat Saint Laurent Chelsea boots or Givenchy sneakers.

Liberty Ross

The highest heels I do are six-inch heels - but mostly only dancers can wear them, since they are used to being on point in ballet shoes.

Christian Louboutin

I can't wear flat shoes. My feet repel them. I was in agony. My high heels had left my feet bleeding. Laugh all you want, my feet hurt

Mariah Carey

A silk dress in four sections, and shoes with high heels that would have broken the heart of John Calvin.

Stephen Leacock

People ask me all the time, 'How can I walk in these heels?' I answer with the best compliment I remember that came from a woman who lives here in Paris...I know my street much better. Heels permit me to take the time to look at the architecture of my street. Now I take time to look at things.' High heels give you time to think, to look at your surroundings- a camel has seen more in life than a very quick horse! Women should live to rhythm of high-heeled shoes!

Christian Louboutin

Shoes must have very high heels and platforms to put women's beauty on a pedestal.

Vivienne Westwood

Heels are really hard to wear. I feel bad for every girl that has to wear heels or chooses to wear heels. They're not fun.

Joe Jonas

Usually, what I do if I want to dress things up is I don't go for high heels, but I go for mid-heels instead.

Jessica Jung

I like to move fast, and wearing high heels was tough, and low heels with a skirt is unattractive. So pants took over.

Katharine Hepburn

My mum told me always to wear heels. If I'm not wearing heels, she says, 'What? You're in flats?' So whenever I see her, I make sure I have heels with me.

Julia Restoin Roitfeld

I'm like one of the tallest ones on 'Scandal.' If I'm wearing my four-inch Abby Whelan high heels, I hover over everybody. I literally have a lower pair of high heels that I wear when I do one of the scenes with the guys.
