Heels — Styling & Pairing
Styling and Pairing
How heels interact with garments and silhouette:
- Skirts & dresses: heels lengthen the leg line and can change hem behaviour.
- Trousers: cropped trousers can show ankle and shoe; wide trousers can swamp delicate heels.
- Stockings & hosiery: seam lines and textures alter tone and tactile cues.
Writing tips
- Use heel choice to signal character (practical vs decorative), mood (careful vs provocative) and era.
