Security with the toe on the ground
This combination makes sense for anyone who wants a high heel but not a conspicuous shoe. The ankle strap gives you the hold; the absence of a platform keeps the silhouette slim. It is the most versatile version in the group.
The closest thing to a classic court shoe
Of all the open styles, this one comes closest to a classic pump — a firm or reinforced heel counter, a wider instep and a toe that sits on the ground. The difference lies mainly in how much of the foot stays visible and how prominent the ankle strap is.
Where to wear them
To the office and to meetings, where a platform would look out of place. To weddings, where there is standing and dancing. And with formal dresses, where the shoe should support the outfit rather than drown it out.
How to choose the height
Without a platform the angle of the foot is steeper, so stay lower than you would go in a platform model. If you need to last a full day, ten to twelve centimetres is a sensible limit. Save the taller models for evenings with more sitting.
