I think those super high platform heels are manufactured for strippers and drag queens. If you notice they’re often in pretty big sizes.
General rule of thumb ladies: if a drag queen wears it, you should probably think twice about wearing it. They’re entertainers.
That used to be their niche, but the look has overtaken mass-market pumps...the things are everywhere now.
Kimberly Guilfoyle wears them on "The Five." I love nice pumps, but those things are too extreme for my taste.
