"He can even make a pair of wellies look fantastic"




A pair of ‘Manolos’ is the fashion byword for exquisite footwear. Designers fight to have them glide across their runway, editors make them a ‘must have’, quite frankly they are coveted by us all. This one man has the ability to make us spend a weeks wages on a pair of shoes, and makes our feet come alive in the shadows of this dark winter, because after all the excessive wining and dining over the holidays a pair of Manolos still fit. Shades of fuchsia, emerald and tangerine put a spring in our step. Beautiful embellishment adorns delicate ankle straps and we can honestly say we feel sexy.
Blahnik’s transforming powers have become legendary, he is renowned for elongating the leg from the hip right down to the toe cleavage. He wasn’t the first man to appear on the cover of Vogue for nothing.
