Editor's Note
“You have a more interesting life if you wear impressive clothes.” - Vivienne Westwood
Vivienne Westwood elevated platform heels, also known as "elevated platform shoes," have a rich history that is closely intertwined with the punk and fashion subcultures of the 1970s and beyond.
Vivienne Westwood, along with her then-partner Malcolm McLaren, played a pivotal role in shaping the punk fashion movement in the 1970s. One of the iconic elements of their designs was the elevated platform heel. These shoes featured exaggerated platform soles that elevated the wearer several inches off the ground.
The elevated platform heel became emblematic of the punk aesthetic, which rebelled against conventional fashion norms and embraced DIY, anti-establishment attitudes. Vivienne Westwood's platform shoes embodied this ethos with their bold designs, unconventional materials, and exaggerated proportions.
