This runway season there were some truly magnificent shoes on display (Mr. McQueen, we’re talking to you!), and after wiping the drool from our mouths we’re left with the question: what do high-heels really mean for women? \u00c2\u00a0Are they a form of hyper-feminine empowerment, or still a vestige of our society’s less-enlightened roots in rampant patriarchy (or just an orthopedist’s nightmare)?\u00c2\u00a0 Fashion needn’t always be taken seriously, but remember: you should wear the shoes – the shoes shouldn’t wear you.<\/p>\n
