The cause of the problem was the small sockettes that a few of the girls were given to wear. “This made the shoes slippery,” she said.However, she conceded that if the shoes from Prada’s spring/summer collection touched stores, the heels would be lower.Just how large do heels need to go before someone calls time on this cruel and unusual clinic, which should rival foot-binding in its blind indifference to comfort and security? Can we actually need a broken ankle before someone says: “Basta! “Athletes would not be sent out on the trail with running shoes which were not perfectly suitable for the job. So why expect professional models – some of whom are hardly out of their teens and with minimal experience of walking on a catwalk – to perform in shoes that would make the ordinary girl in the road run a mile?Throughout daily, the “Prada requires a tumble” factor – since the International Herald Tribune’s Suzy Menkes dubbed it – was the discussion of front rows.Several fashion experts admitted they’d found it difficult to concentrate on the clothes because of a grim fascination with the faltering footsteps from the gravity-defying shoes. If this trend were committed only by male designers, then possibly fixated by a fantasy woman in towering stilettos, it might perhaps be easier to understand, but not excuse.But when the designer is a woman, using a self-confessed history of designing for women, it is tougher to accept.Miuccia Prada, naturally, isn’t the only offender.


    • Plus it is fairly common, whether to the catwalks of New York, London, Milan or Paris, to come across women slipping out of the shoes and walking barefoot, high heels in hand, to finish their “exit”.Away from the catwalk, also, the skyscraper heel and the stage only are the shoe du jour, but the wearer is usually only choosing her way gingerly into a waiting limo – she doesn’t face a 100ft strut before an audience of hundreds, and of course that the movie cameras as well as also the telephoto lenses of the world’s photographers, all of these poised to capture for posterity any fictitious step.Naomi Campbell’s famous topple out of her almost 12in high Vivienne Westwood mock-croc platforms at the designer’s Anglomania show in Paris in 1993 has been the stuff of fashion legend.Naomi’s pride might have been dented, and she was tumbling on to soft carpeting, which marginally cushioned her fall. However, she giggled.No one is laughing today.
