I loved fashion all my life.
Even today, though I do not dress as I used to, I still love to see the runway shows with the big designers.
This photo is exactly like a pair of shoes I had at 16.
I had many pairs of shoes throughout my life.
I also wore a yellow pair of cool bell bottoms with black stars on them with these shoes.
@Looeyville had reminded me of these talking about the bell bottoms her Mother made for her.
What were your favorite far out shoes you remember?

Never did platforms. I let Elton wear them for me.

Well I am sure I'd have a time if I tried to wear them today, but back then I was more agile Kristen.

I had bellbottoms but would never want them now.
Those shoes look heavy.

I did a peg job on a pair of jeans I got somewhere. Remember pegging? I had a pair of tan platforms that I wore when cocktailing in my late twenties or so. I enjoy fashion too and watch many of the fashion shows on TV.

Wow - those shoes are groovy 
! I got into fashion in junior high . . . but shoes were one thing I couldn't get away with getting cheaply, so I didn't own many pairs. Later in on life I did have some cool long royal blue suede boots with fringes in the back.

I had a pair of men's platform shoes that I wore with bellbottom pants when I was in high school back in the late 70s.

I’d never wear something like this. How can people walk in that or even stand in them? I wouldn’t be able to do either.

Oh how cool! Far out, dude! I remember in high school that a certain high-heeled shoe was very popular but I can't remember the name. Around 1980 I think. I didn't have any. I did wear stilettos when I was a stripper.
