Why is everyone wearing fetish shoes
I have to laugh when I see the high heels that are in many fashionable stores, these days,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], because those shoes are just fetish shoes with higher pricetags. As a professional dominatrix,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], I have many a pair of fetish shoes in my closet. They usually have an extremely high platform, like stripper shoes, but are black (or red) and often have extreme heels or lacing.
Suddenly, about two years ago, fetish heels started showing up in mainstream magazines, like Vogue, W and Harper's Bazaar. I kept thinking it would be a fad. Why would ordinary girls want to look like a dominatrix? And hell, as someone who has to wear them for a living, I would often choose NOT to be in them, when I'm trying to walk or do other activities. I love the height they give me, don't get me wrong. Some of my favorite pairs are in the six inch range -- they are high enough to be fetish, but not so high that I'm in danger of tumbling down while I tie up a man. But when I put on my eight inch high Mary Jane shoes, it's as if my entire personality changes. Fetish heels are beloved by many because they are extreme, creative and really hard to walk in.
And my submissive men clients love the sense of power and domination that they exude. But come on, should ordinary women who know nothing about the fetish world be traipsing around in a kind of modified fetish heel, without even realizing the associations?
The designers know what they are doing, I'm sure of it. There is a very ordinary fetish pump made by Yves Saint Laurent,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and the shoe is named "Tribute". That's the money that a submissive man gives to the professional dominatrix as a 'thank you' for disciplining him -- it is called the Tribute by both the dominatrix and the sub. As in, "Give me the tribute I deserve."
If you're looking at buying the Tribute model, at least be aware you're participating in the fetish world, even if you don't realize it. The ordinary world is having the BDSM/fetish world encroaching on it all the time. I can almost guarantee that the dude who designed them had faux-dominatrix thoughts when he came up with the ribbons and crystals theme.
Good lord,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], I can barely totter around my apartment in them, and they're only about 3 1/2 inches, let alone 6! God bless ya (and your toes),[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], darlin'!
I have a question about something that seems a bit contradictory here. And, believe me,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], I'm not passing judgment one way or another on a person being a dominatrix.
But, I'm wondering how these shoes can exude a sense of power and domination if they're so uncomfortable and difficult to walk in. I find it hard to reconcile those two things.
It would seem that the ultimate sense of power and domination would be exuded by a pair of skull-stomping Doc Martens or maybe a pair of standard-issue Army boots,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
Hmm. There seems to be a dom/shoe/heel thing bubbling below the surface on OS lately. They'd fall to their knees, thinking they died and went to heaven. I have wonder, though. With the explosion of social web sites,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], personals, cam-fed amateur porn (Girls Gone Wild etcetera), and well, the gradual mainstreaming of "alt" sexuality. how unaware of the BDSM context do you think the average wearer of extreme heels is?
I can never understand women who wear towering heels just for walking around town. I often wince in sympathy when I see a woman teetering down the street, feet almost vertical, with all her weight being jammed onto her toes. I cannot understand why anyone would choose to go through their day with agonisingly sore feet, when they could be wearing lovely comfy shoes. I know that, post-Sex and the City,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], we're all supposed to be obsessed with Manolos etc, but I'd rather have a pair of trainers any day!
As a 52 year-old who cannot wear fetish shoes due to an old injury never properly taken care of,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], I had to smile when I read this. Wearing them to the opera (or a play date) - absolutely! Wearing them for work? Only if it were absolutely necessary. I suspect that we have the fabulous Jean Paul Gaultier to thank for much of this fashion trend. Speaking of which, could this look could serve for those days when you just cannot bear the thought of another day in stilettos? You are the Mistress, after all. i don't think that was the intention,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but that just didn't happen in dallas.
and my new yorker friend cheerfully informed me that it was a drag queen thing. i don't know if that's true,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but i do think several cultures had laid claim to the imagery,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], not just the doms. fraught with symbolism, shoes are!
i think of fashion like an arms race. dudes, be very careful about the makeup. it's a trick!
I once read that fashion in clothing and hairstyles emerged because sex is so frightening and distressing that we need to keep redisguising ourselves to divert this fear and visually reengage our admirers. I think there is something to this. Shoe fashions have several effects on the viewer: they make women look more abstracted, like art objects. Sometimes they give the whimsical cachet of prancing animals with hooves. When I see spectacular images of Victoria Beckham traipsing around Hollywood in dizzyingly-high heels, I am fascinated. But I also know,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], from walking about in men's fashion shoes, that they can be very uncomfortable. It is all so very confusing,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], is it not? And yet such a wonderful spectacle. Which is, I guess, the point. Fashion is wonderful!
