Pepper Potts’ super-shoes
One last IRON MAN item. It seems the ridiculous stilettos worn by Gwyneth Paltrow as Pepper Potts are spawning their OWN fashion movement:
Looks like movie stars really do influence the buying habits of the many minions.
Selfridges, the London department store, has seen a nearly 35% increase in sales of hyper-high heels since Gwyneth Paltrow strutted them down multiple red carpets for the Iron Man promotional tour this week.
With 7-inch spikes, it’s no wonder they’re called “fetish” heels; a pair by Alexander McQueen is particularly popular.
Just call it “Iron Ankles.”

I think Pepper Potts’ shoes had little jets in them or something. How else did she stand on the grating in front of the reactor?

Oh man.
My poor pronating feet and ankles ache just looking at those shoes.
(God’s joke: Made me 5′ tall with bad knees and pronating feet. No heels for me!)
