High Heel-less !!






The 5.5in creations by Briton Antonio Berardi can hardly be described as high heels, since they lack the most important part - a heel.

For the bargain price of £1,800 <-- What a bargain!!, the wearer will get to totter around with all her weight balanced on a thickened platform sole.

Lincolnshire-born Berardi, 39, said he was inspired by Latin American music and 1980s post-modernism, adding: "When you walk, it is almost on tiptoe. You look really dainty." <-- ay shy!!

Stars including Gwyneth Paltrow and Uma Thurman invested in a black patent version costing more than £1,100, shortly after they were unveiled in Berardi's spring/summer collection in Paris.

And Victoria Beckham apparently has a snakeskin pair. <-- Daahling, that's major!!

They are going on sale in Browns stores in London, where they have to be ordered up to five weeks in advance.

Wonderful shoes !
...and not so difficult to walk on !
Did you see the model Lily Aldridge, who has attended Gap Design Editions launch celebration at Rockefeller Plaza gallery (April 2008) : Lily wore a pair of those heel-less platform shoes. And she explained : « They’re really high, but surprisingly comfortable! »
So these shoes are relly wearable !
I want a pair of heel-less platform shoes !
