A lot of women don't like when they're sort of fat, but a fat foot is as beautiful as a skinny foot. Think of Greek statues. Look how many people love the foot of the baby! There is something super-charming about the baby foot.

Shoes are a mirror of what you want, what you are or what you're missing

To feel like a woman, wear heels, to feel like a goddess, wear five inches.

I would hate for someone to look at my shoe and say, 'Oh my God! That looks so comfortable!'

I love deep cleavage on the foot. It reminds me of Berlin in 1930s, 'Cabaret.'

I have no problem with the idea of comfort, but it is not an important thing aesthetically. If you look at a shoe and immediately say it looks very comfortable, in terms of design, it is not going to excite me. Of course, I am not putting nails in my shoes to ensure everybody is in pain, but a heel is not a pair of slippers and never will be.

The highest heels I do are six-inch heels - but mostly only dancers can wear them, since they are used to being on point in ballet shoes. Their feet are arched.
