Steps for Walking Effortlessly in Stilettos
Beginners should start with a safer shoe, involving a sturdier stiletto, and straps to hold in the ankle and the foot, advises Morton. Slingbacks and mules should be left to the advanced stiletto wearer as there is little more than luck holding them on. Bare feet grip your shoes better than when you are wearing hosiery, as the flesh of the foot is in direct contact with the shoe.
Carefully place each foot in a shoe somewhat like a ballerina, by pointing your toes and arching your feet, and sliding into the heel.
You will feel the balance of your weight shifting from foot to leg, with calf muscles feeling taught and ankles feeling tight. Morton equates this with the “biting point” of a car, just as you are ready to take off the handbrake.
As you begin to stand, you will feel your thighs, stomach muscles and butt clench. Gently sway from side to side, with your feet hip-distance apart.
With your weight now firmly on the tips and balls of your heels, Morton also suggests circling the room with your hands on each of your butt cheeks, to test the angle of your wiggle! Presumably, this is something that should be done alone, unless you want to treat your partner or friends to a really good laugh!
After getting the feel of the shoe and your balance, you are ready to start walking properly. Lift up your right foot, clench your toes, first landing the weight on the ball of your foot, and then spreading it onto the heel.
When you land on your first foot, make sure you land on the heel first (not toe) but then instantly move your weight forward. Wait until your foot has been repositioned before lifting the other.
To perfect that runway walk, imagine that with each step you are doing a figure of 8. Walk straight and tall, with tiny steps, as if you are on a tightrope — allowing your hips to move first.
