I have had some shoes of that aspirational ilk. Got some platform pumps for my Big Intern Job at Knoedler in 1973. Then there were various extremely uncomfortable heels purchased on 8th (when 8th was Shoe Alley) that wore me out around the city.

Not stilettos though. Never got behind the stiletto thing. I was a clog person by the time stilettos became the rage.

Fun read!
