40 Super High Platform Shoes

From Glitzy Holiday Footwear to Patriotic Platforms

— December 18, 2012 — Fashion
Super high platform shoes give you that extra height you're looking for without sacrificing style.

There is a wonderful variety of platforms on the market now. They pay homage to the 60s, 70s and 80s and are continually taking footwear to new heights. Shoe brands like Jeffrey Campbell are banking on platform styles and making them have a resurgence in the shoe market by catering to certain designs. Campbell is notorious for its 'Lita' platforms and other brands have also become synonymous with the towering shoes. Celebrities like Lady Gaga and Nikki Minaj rock ridiculously high shoes and have made platform shoes extremely desirable.

Super high platform shoes are no longer a thing of the past, but a full-fledged obsession that will continue to evolve in the future.
