Default "high Heels Are Fine For Men" - Itv

On ITV's late morning programme (UK) at 11.45am today, I was delighted to see a feature on "high" heel fashion trends for men. Presented by Fern Britten, the feature started with shots of Sarcosi(?) the new French president wearing stacked heels for his current UK tour, followed by shots of celebrities Tom Cruise etc. also in raised heels.
Then they returned to their TV studio with a guest male fashion guru holding up several examples of current boots and shoes from well-known stores - Aldo, Diesel etc. with heels up to about 2.5" (all normal male thickness heels and hardly tapered). Rather tame, you might say, but still a nationwide television plug in the right direction.

Then they brought out several male models wearing further boots and similar shoes with "high" heels. Although again only up to 2.5", not bad considering they are all for the mainstream market.

However, the best thing of all, was when presenter Fern Britten wrapped up the feature by summarising "HIGH HEELS ARE FINE FOR MEN!" !!!!

Is that remark cool, or what?

Cheers, Heelfan
